Haryana/Hisar: An important seminar on the topic 'One Nation-One Election' was organized on Saturday, 7 June 2025 in the premises of Om Sterling Global University (OSGU). Various dignitaries presented their views in this seminar organized under the aegis of Om Sterling Global University and Institute for Public Policy Research and Sustainable Development.
Cabinet Minister of Haryana Government, Mr. Ranbir Gangwa was present as the chief guest in the program. In his address, Mr. Gangwa highlighted the importance of the concept of 'One Nation-One Election' and its potential benefits. One Nation-One Election is a matter of national interest.
The campaign was launched by the Prime Minister of the country, Mr. Narendra Modi, that elections are held in some state or the other every year. This leads to a waste of time and money. The objective of One Nation-One Election is to eliminate the challenges related to electoral management, reduce expenses and eliminate the disruptions in governance and administration caused by frequent elections.
He called the concept of 'one nation-one election' the need of the hour and said that it will strengthen the democratic system, reduce administrative expenses and also speed up the country's development. This grand seminar was presided over by Dr. Puneet Goyal, Honorable Chancellor of Om Sterling Global University. In his presidential address, he said that this subject should not be limited to political discussions only, but its social, economic and administrative aspects should also be deeply considered and concrete steps should be taken for its implementation.
