  • Signalling its resolve to roll out the 'one nation, one election' plan, the BJP has constituted a high-powered committee chaired by Union agriculture minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan to shape public opinion and align its own state and local body governments with the importance of the idea.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has decided to aggressively push for the 'One Nation, One Election' initiative, aiming to synchronize elections across India. This move is seen as a strategy to streamline the electoral process, reduce costs, and minimize the disruption caused by frequent elections. The BJP's renewed focus on this plan comes ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, with the party believing that simultaneous polls could enhance governance efficiency and development.

The BJP plans to highlight this in their election campaign, emphasizing the benefits of having a single election cycle for both national and state assemblies.
