NITI Aayog recommends simultaneous LS, assembly polls
In order to ensure minimum campaigning disruption to governance, the Niti Aayog has recommended synchronised, two-phase Lok Sabha and assembly polls from 2024. The implementation of the proposal may require a "maximum one-time curtailment or extension of some state assemblies", it added. Niti Aayog made the Election Commission as the nodal agency to look into the suggestions.
