'One Country, One Election' initiative aims to bring US-like presidential system in the country, alleges Jayant Patil

The chief of the Sharad Pawar-led celebration mentioned, “The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) suffered losses in the Lok Sabha elections due to its plan to change the Constitution. The BJP has so far avoided holding local body and municipal elections. It is surprising that the ruling party is talking about 'one country, one election'.”

He mentioned that if Lok Sabha elections are held in seven phases then how can elections be held concurrently?

This yr the Lok Sabha elections have been held in seven phases (from April 19 to June 1).
