Opposition slam ‘one nation, one election’; BJP allies back proposal



Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Derek O’Brien criticised the move as a “cheap stunt” by the BJP, questioning why Maharashtra elections were not announced with Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir if simultaneous polls are the goal. He also raised concerns about the constitutional amendments required, describing the proposal as a “classic Modi-Shah jumla.”BJP ally Janata Dal (United) welcomed the decision, citing the potential benefits of reducing frequent polls and ensuring policy continuity. JD(U) spokesperson Rajeev Ranjan Prasad argued that it would provide long-term benefits and help boost voter turnout. The Shiv Sena, led by Eknath Shinde, expressed support, claiming the measure would cut election costs and strengthen national unity.Shiv Sena (UBT) ridiculed the plan. They pointed out the government’s inability to hold Maharashtra and Haryana elections simultaneously, calling it a distraction from issues like unemployment and inflation.
