Simultaneous Elections in India: Need, Feasibility and Sustainability
Dinesh Kaushik, Vanshika Gupta, Swabhaav Narahara Setty
Abstract: The frequent elections in India involve huge costs in terms of money, deployment of security forces, and teachers, and adversely impact development works and governance due to the imposition of the Model Code of Conduct by the Election Commission of India (ECI). As a result, the need for simultaneous elections is expressed and discussed by various stakeholders as an alternative to ending the frequent election cycle. While giving supportive arguments to make a case for simultaneous elections , we will also investigate the likely criticism of the idea and provide counterarguments against them.
Keywords: simultaneous elections, election costs, Model Code of Conduct, development impact, Election Commission
