Lok Sabha Election: The Modi government is gearing up for 'one country-one election'. Regarding this, a committee has also been formed under the chairmanship of former President Ramnath Kovind. Also, a notification regarding this was also issued yesterday. Now former Congress President Rahul Gandhi has given the first reaction regarding 'one country-one election'. Rahul has described 'one nation-one election' as an attack on the country and all the states. Congress MP Rahul Gandhi wrote on X (earlier Twitter), “India ie Bharat is a union of states. The idea of 'one country-one election' is an attack on the union and all its states."
Congress attacks on one nation, one electionEarlier, former Finance Minister and veteran Congress leader P Chidambaram attacked the BJP for one nation, one election. Chidambaram said that like every other issue sponsored by the BJP, this idea also seems to be pre-determined and pre-planned. He said that one nation-one election is a political-legal question. This is more political than law.Chidambaram also surrounded the government regarding the members of the committee formed on one country-one election. He said that there is only one member from the main opposition party in the 8-member committee. Apart from this, I recognize only one approved lawyer knowledgeable in constitutional matters in the committee.INDIA, that is Bharat, is a Union of States.
