To enhance the administrative efficiency and governance in India and to bring democratic reforms, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) think tank is organising a seminar on “One Nation, One Election” or simultaneous electoral reforms. The seminar is being organised from January 20-21 at the Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini academy for three days and it has written to the general secretaries of all the parties in India.

The election phenomenon, from Municipal corporations, Vidhan Sabha to lok Sabha elections halt the development work and the movement of security personnel during elections is also another cost factor,” said Dr Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, Member of Rajya Sabha here.

“Niti Ayog has also discussed on this reform and this will be proven as the mother of all reforms for a delivering democracy,” said Sahasrabuddhe said who is also a chairman of Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini (RMP).
