Learn about the reasoning behind the initiative of 'One Nation, One Election' in India.
The initiative of 'One Nation, One Election' in India aims to synchronize the schedules of state assembly and Lok Sabha elections. The reasoning behind this initiative includes:
- Reducing the financial burden: Conducting multiple elections leads to exorbitant costs for security, campaigning, and election processes.
- Decreasing governance disruptions: Frequent elections lead to governance distractions as politicians and administrators focus on campaigning instead of policy implementation.
- Enhancing voter turnout: Simultaneous elections may increase voter participation as elections are consolidated and streamline the electoral process.
- Improving political stability: With all elections held simultaneously, there may be reduced potential for political uncertainty and frequent change in governments.
