Calling it a reform that will "redefine the terms of good governance", President Droupadi Murmu said the 'One Nation, One Election' bill will help check "policy paralysis, mitigate resource division, and reduce financial burden".
"Reforms of such magnitude require an audacity of vision. Another measure that promises to redefine the terms of good governance is the Bill introduced in Parliament to synchronise election schedules in the country. The 'One Nation One Election' plan can promote consistency in governance, prevent policy paralysis, mitigate resource diversion, and reduce the financial burden, apart from offering many other benefits," said President Murmu addressing the nation on the eve of 76th Republic Day.
