‘One Nation, One Election’ road map: If brought in, 10 states may have Assemblies of a year or less
If the Union government decides to implement simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha and state Assemblies in 2029, the process will start as soon as the 2024 Lok Sabha polls end and many state Assemblies will be dissolved in 2029 much before the end of their five-year term to facilitate simultaneous elections. That is if the constitutional provisions on the duration of the Lok Sabha and Assemblies are amended during the term of the next Lok Sabha.
