520 _aThe contentious proposal of “one nation, one election” is critically examined. The interwoven relationship between elections, social cleavages, federal balance, and the potential implications of simultaneous elections for democratic (in)stability in India is explored. In doing so, comparative literature on concurrent elections is studied to assuage its merits and demerits, and better understand the implications for a country like India.- Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2024/1/perspectives/simultaneous-elections-plural-societies.html
