The high-level Committee headed by former president Ram Nath Kovind, which is examining the issue of simultaneous elections in India, has been renamed the High-Level Committee on One Nation, One Election. The committee's task is to make recommendations on holding simultaneous elections to the Lok Sabha, state assemblies, municipalities, and panchayats while considering the existing framework under the Constitution of India and other statutory provisions. They will also analyze and recommend solutions for scenarios like a hung House, adoption of the no-confidence motion, defection, or other events. A website has been launched for stakeholders to interact and provide suggestions.
