AMN / NEW DELHI
West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee has came down heavily on Union Cabinet decision on One nation One Polls saying the Union Cabinet has bulldozed their way through with the unconstitutional and anti-federal One Nation, One Election Bill, ignoring every legitimate concern raised by experts and opposition leaders.
This is not a carefully-considered reform; it’s an authoritarian imposition designed to undermine India’s democracy and federal structure.
Our MPs will oppose this draconian legislation tooth and nail in Parliament. Bengal will NEVER bow to Delhi’s dictatorial whims. This fight is about saving India’s democracy from the clutches of autocracy!
The Bill aims to synchronise elections for the Lok Sabha, state assemblies, and local bodies and is expected to be tabled in the Parliament during the ongoing winter session.
While the BJP and its allies are pushing the idea as a significant reform, the Congress and other regional parties, have branded it as “anti-democratic” and a threat to India’s diverse political fabric.
