In September 2023, the Government of India constituted a high-level committee to examine the issue of holding simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha, State Legislative Assemblies, Municipalities, and Panchayats.
This concept is popularly known as 'One Nation, One Election'.
The committee was formed to explore the feasibility and mechanisms for implementing this idea.
The chairman appointed to lead this committee is Shri Ram Nath Kovind, the former President of India.
