H'bag MP calls for ‘One Nation, One Election'
Hazaribag: Hazaribag MP Manish Jaiswal said the proposed system of 'One Nation, One Election' should evolve into a public movement as it is an issue that directly affects every citizen. He was addressing a seminar as the chief guest on Saturday at the Vivekananda Auditorium of Vinoba Bhave University in Hazaribag. The event was jointly organised by the department of political science and the internal quality assurance cell. Jaiswal said the aim of this system is to conduct Lok Sabha and state assembly elections simultaneously. From the time of India's independence until 1967, the One Nation, One Election system was in effect. However, later govts misused Article 356 for political interests, toppling state govts, which ultimately disrupted this unified electoral system. He said elections are held somewhere or the other throughout the year, and the entire country bears the brunt of it. Vice chancellor Prof Dinesh Kumar Singh said it is possible to achieve the goal of Developed India 2047 through this system. Chairing the seminar, Singh said that One Nation One Election will prove effective in achieving the goal of Vision 2047 set for developed India.

Will soon start teaching in tribal studies centre: VBU VC
Hazaribag: Vice chancellor of Vinoba Bhave University in Hazaribag, Dinesh Kumar Singh , said starting teaching and other academic activities in the tribal studies centre located at varsity headquarters at Sindoor is his top priority. Hazaribag MP Manish Jaiswal and tribal affairs expert Bulu Iman will be soon contacted for guidance regarding this, he added.
