Speaking at the India Economic Conclave organized by Times Now, Vaishnaw elaborated on the advantages of simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha and state assemblies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is nothing wrong about it.

He also mentioned a report on ONOE by a committee chaired by former President Ram Nath Kovind, which incorporated input from a broad range of stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The minister\u2019s comments underscore the government\u2019s intention to advance the ONOE initiative as a transformative step for governance and development in India.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw emphasized the benefits of the \u201cOne Nation, One Election\u201d (ONOE) initiative on Thursday, describing it as a \u201cpositive thought\u201d that would allow India to focus more effectively on development by reducing the frequency of elections.
