Problem 17 - Entrance Test

Consider the following statements regarding the 'One Nation, One Election' concept in India: 1. It advocates for simultaneous elections to the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies. 2. The Law Commission of India had previously examined and supported the idea. 3. A high-level committee to examine the feasibility was recently formed under the chairmanship of a former Chief Justice of India.

Correct: A

The 'One Nation, One Election' concept proposes holding simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha (Parliament) and all State Legislative Assemblies. Both the Law Commission of India and the NITI Aayog have previously examined and generally supported the idea, citing benefits like reduced expenditure and administrative burden. A high-level committee to examine the feasibility of 'One Nation, One Election' was recently formed under the chairmanship of former President Ram Nath Kovind, not a former Chief Justice of India. Thus, statement 3 is incorrect. Statements 1 and 2 are correct.
