HYDERABAD: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Wednesday said he consistently opposed ‘one nation one election’ as it destroys federalism and compromises democracy.

Minutes after the Union Cabinet approved the proposal for ‘one nation, one election’ as recommended by the Kovind panel, the Hyderabad Lok Sabha member in a social media post said frequent and periodic elections improve democratic accountability.

“I have consistently opposed #OneNationOneElections because it is a solution in search of a problem. It destroys federalism and compromises democracy, which are part of the basic structure of the constitution,” Owaisi said in a post on ‘X’.
