e nation, one election thought has been doing the rounds for the past few years. Last Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met bosses of various political parties to know their views.
Congress, Trinamool Congress, Bahujan Samaj Party, Samajwadi Party and Dravida Munnetra Kazhakam stayed away from the meet citing various reasons. Aam Aadmi Party, Telugu Desam Party and Telangana Rashtra Samithi sent representatives.
Later Union minister Rajnath Singh said that the government will form a committee to look into the feasibility of one nation, one election.
The idea of holding simultaneous elections to Parliament and state assemblies is not new. Till 1967 that was the norm in India. Elections to Lok Sabha and state assemblies were held together in 1951-52, 57, 1962 and 1967.
It gained recent traction after Prime Minister Narendra Modi floated the idea in March 2016. The Niti Aayog came out with a paper in 2017 and the Law Commission gave its nod in 2018 with a few caveats.
On paper the concept of one nation, one election looks very seductive. Especially in today’s political culture where nearly all sub-national identities have been erased. Voters cutting across caste, class and linguistic barriers voted for a strong leader, Narendra Modi.
But in reality one nation, one election is a devious way to do away with democracy and federalism. If we go by recent electoral trends one nation, one election will centralise power in the hands of one person (the prime minister) who can then steamroll all local aspirations.
Let’s look at what the proponents of one nation, one election say and how fallacious their beliefs are.
