One nation, one election to start in 5 years, says Rajnath Singh
TIRUPATI: Defence minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday said if elected to govern again, the NDA govt will implement the “one-nation-one-election” policy in the next five years.
“Lok Sabha elections and assembly elections are being held simultaneously in Andhra Pradesh. We will fulfil our commitment of ‘one-nation-one-election’ across the country by the end of the next five years.This will save a lot of time and energy,” Singh said at an rally in Jammalamadugu assembly constituency in Kadapa district.
He accused the YSRCP govt of leading the state into a debt trap with its “corrupt” practices, adding that Andhra Pradesh’s debt has skyrocketed to Rs 13.5 lakh crore during the current regime.
“BJP entered into a pact with TDP and Jana Sena in AP to end the corrupt rule of the Jagan Mohan Reddy govt,” he said. “People of the state are fed up with the deteriorating law and order situation in the state,” he added, urging people to pledge support to all the NDA candidates in the poll fray.
