MOTHER OF ALL REFORMS ?

#JointPolls  ?  #FixedTerm  ?

==================

Answer is  :  YES  PLEASE  !

Following news appeared in Times of India ( 15 April ) :

“ Govt to ask EC : Can joint polls be held in ’19 ? “

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/government-to-ask-ec-can-simultaneous-lok-sabha-assembly-polls-be-held-in-2019/articleshow/63765146.cms

This formality has to be gone through

Actually , it is Election Commission which is advocating holding of simultaneous polls and have made its position clear on this, both to the Central Government and to the Supreme Court

It has also said that it does not foresee  any major administrative hitch in this

I presume , some technological innovation will be required . But these are solvable

The biggest hurdle is getting a consensus of all the major political parties , to whom  I have sent ample justifications through my following e mail [  REaL  ]

And while trying to get that consensus for  #JointPolls  , it would be highly desirable to obtain their consensus on NITI Aayog’s proposal for #FixedTerms , also :

“ Niti sees good case for Fixed Term for LS, Assemblies now “

In this , I have also described a fool-proof method for getting from all those opposition parties , that elusive CONSENSUS  !
