💨 Abstract

The Joint Parliamentary Committee is consulting legal experts and stakeholders on the bills proposing simultaneous Lok Sabha and assembly elections. Former Law Commission chairperson Ritu Raj Awasthi and IAS officer Niten Chandra appeared, with former CJI U U Lalit scheduled to appear. The committee aims to discuss the two bills, which were tabled after the high-level Kovind committee strongly advocated for the concept of 'one nation one election'.
