One Nation, One Election In National Interest, Not For Any Party: Ram Nath Kovind

"Holding simultaneous elections will be beneficial for the public as the revenue saved will be used for development work," the former President told reporters on Monday night.

Former President Ram Nath Kovind, who heads the committee to explore the possibility of "one nation, one election", said holding simultaneous polls is in the national interest and has got nothing to do with any particular political party.

"Holding simultaneous elections will be beneficial for the public as the revenue saved will be used for development work," the former President told reporters on Monday night.

"I am requesting all the political parties to cooperate as this is in the national interest. No political party has got anything to do with it," he stressed.
