Elections in India

India’s national election will take place in phases over 44 days. Here’s why it takes so long

Nearly 970 million people or over 10% of the global population are eligible to vote in India’s general elections. The mammoth exercise is the biggest anywhere in the world and will take 44 days before results are announced on June 4.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is aiming for a third consecutive term in office. He is set to compete against a diverse yet faltering coalition of opposition parties who are finding it difficult to counter his popularity. The majority of polls forecast a comfortable victory for the nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, solidifying his position as one of the most prominent and influential leaders in the country.

WHY DOES IT TAKE SO LONG?

Two primary factors contribute to this situation: the vast expanse of India, the most populous nation globally, and the intricate logistics required to enable each eligible voter to participate in the electoral process.

Over the years, the duration of voting has wavered. It took nearly four months to complete the vote in India’s first elections in 1951-1952, after it gained independence from British rule, and just four days in 1980. In 2019, voting took 39 days, and this year’s election is the second longest.

With 969 million registered voters, the size of India’s electorate is bigger than the combined population of the 27 European Union member states. This includes 18 million first-time voters, and around 197 million who are in their 20s.

The vote to choose 543 lawmakers for the lower house of Parliament takes place over seven phases. India’s 28 states and eight federal territories will vote at different times. Each phase is one day, with the first held on April 19 and the last on June 1.

Some states may complete their voting process within a day, while others might require more time. For instance, Uttar Pradesh, the largest state in India with a population of 200 million, equivalent to the size of Brazil, will conduct voting over seven days. This extended duration of the voting process in India's general elections has been criticized by Modi's opponents, who argue that it provides an advantage to the prime minister in terms of campaigning and travel, particularly in states where his party is not as strong.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS

The Election Commission of India is responsible for ensuring that a voting booth is accessible within a 2-kilometer radius of each voter. Chakshu Roy from PRS Legislative Research emphasized the extensive efforts election officials must undertake to enable every voter to cast their ballot. Around 15 million election officials and security personnel will travel across deserts and mountains, utilizing various modes of transportation such as boats, walking, and even horseback riding, to reach all voters.

It can be especially arduous. In 2019, when India last held elections, a team of polling officers trekked over 480 kilometers (300 miles) for four days just so a single voter in a hamlet in the remote state of Arunachal Pradesh, which borders China, could exercise their right.

Officials also traveled to a village tucked away high up in the Himalayas in 2019 to install a booth at 15,256 feet (4,650 meters), the highest polling station anywhere in the world.

This time too, polling stations will be installed in remote places, including one inside a wildlife sanctuary in southern Kerala state and another in a shipping container in western Gujarat state.

TIGHT SECURITY

Security is cited as a significant factor behind the multi-phase elections in India, according to experts. In order to ensure safety, a large number of federal security forces, who typically guard borders, are mobilized and work in conjunction with state police. Their primary responsibilities include preventing violence, escorting electoral officials, and transporting voting machines. Previous elections in India have been marred by deadly clashes between supporters of rival political parties, particularly in West Bengal. However, the presence of heavy security forces has contributed to a decrease in such incidents over the years, resulting in relatively peaceful voting. The geographical diversity of the country, with its rivers, mountains, snow, and jungles, poses challenges for the movements of security forces. Despite these obstacles, the chief election commissioner, Rajiv Kumar, has emphasized their commitment to ensuring a smooth voting process by going the extra mile for the convenience of voters.

[ad_1] GG News Bureau Uttar Pradesh, 23rd November. As the BJP took a significant lead on six seats in the Uttar Pradesh bypolls on Saturday, state Congress President Ajay Rai leveled serious accusations against the Yogi Adityanath-led government. Rai alleged that the ruling government had used state machinery, including the police, to influence the outcome of the elections, which were conducted in nine constituencies across the state. Rai strongly criticized the electoral process, claiming that voters were intimidated and threatened during the bypolls. “It was already decided in Uttar Pradesh that the government was fighting the elections with the help of its machinery and police to win the elections. The result of that has come out… All the machineries, and police administration was deployed, voters were intimidated and threatened. This is a complete murder of democracy,” Rai said. Rai also referred to the political climate in Jharkhand, where the INDIA alliance had secured a lead in the state. He credited the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance) government in Jharkhand for its good governance, claiming that the public was angered by BJP’s attempts to break the unity of local leaders using “money and muscle power.” Meanwhile, Tej Pratap Singh Yadav, the Samajwadi Party (SP) candidate from the Karhal Assembly seat, echoed similar sentiments, accusing the administration of abusing its power during the by-elections. Yadav alleged that people in the Meerapur and Kundarki constituencies were harassed, with BJP-backed officials exerting undue pressure on voters. “The way the administration abused power and constantly harassed our people, our activists, and the people here, we contested the elections very strongly, and we hope that we will win with a good margin,” Yadav said, adding that viral videos from election day exposed the undue influence of the police in BJP’s favor. By 2:20 PM, the Election Commission of India reported that the BJP was leading in six seats: Kundarki, Ghaziabad, Khair, Phulpur, Katehari, and Majhawan. The Samajwadi Party (SP) was leading in two seats: Sishamau and Karhal, while Jayant Chaudhary’s Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) led in the Meerapur seat. The by-polls, which were held across 48 assembly seats and two Lok Sabha seats in 15 states, have been closely watched, with high-profile contests in Uttar Pradesh and Wayanad, Kerala, where Priyanka Gandhi Vadra made her electoral debut.   The post Congress Accuses Yogi Government of Using Machinery in Uttar Pradesh By-Elections as BJP Leads on Six Seats appeared first on Global Governance News- Asia's First Bilingual News portal for Global News and Updates.

10 Must-Know Legal and Constitutional Provisions for IAS Aspirants

The Indian Administrative Service (IAS) exam demands a deep understanding of the legal and constitutional framework of India. A significant portion of the General Studies papers in UPSC focuses on constitutional provisions and legal principles. For IAS aspirants, mastering these provisions is essential to excel in the exam and develop an analytical approach to governance and policymaking.

Here are 10 must-know legal and constitutional provisions that every IAS aspirant should be familiar with:

1. Preamble of the Indian Constitution

The Preamble sets the tone and vision of the Constitution, outlining India as a sovereign, socialist, secular, and democratic republic. IAS aspirants should understand its components and how it serves as the guiding light for governance.

2. Fundamental Rights (Articles 12-35)

Fundamental Rights are the cornerstone of the Indian Constitution, ensuring basic freedoms to citizens. Aspirants must focus on their scope, limitations, and case laws associated with these rights.

3. Directive Principles of State Policy (Articles 36-51)

These principles aim to establish social and economic democracy. IAS aspirants should explore how these non-justiciable rights guide policy-making and influence legislative and executive actions.

4. Fundamental Duties (Article 51A)

Added by the 42nd Amendment, these duties emphasize the responsibilities of citizens. Understanding their importance in fostering a sense of civic responsibility is crucial for IAS preparation.

5. Separation of Powers (Articles 50 & 123)

The Constitution establishes a system of checks and balances between the legislature, executive, and judiciary. Familiarity with this concept and landmark cases like Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala is essential.

6. Amendment Procedure (Article 368)

Understanding how the Constitution can be amended is critical for analyzing the dynamic nature of governance. Aspirants should study the types of amendments (simple, special, and by a majority of states) and key amendments like the 42nd, 73rd, and 74th Amendments.

7. Emergency Provisions (Articles 352-360)

These provisions grant extraordinary powers to the central government during crises. IAS aspirants must analyze their impact on federalism, civil liberties, and governance, as seen during the Emergency of 1975-77.

8. Union-State Relations (Articles 245-263)

The division of powers between the Union and States under the Seventh Schedule is a vital area of study. Aspirants should focus on the legislative, administrative, and financial relations, including concepts like the Concurrent List.

9. Judicial Review and Independence of Judiciary

Judicial review is a fundamental feature of the Indian Constitution, ensuring laws align with constitutional principles. Aspirants must grasp the judiciary's role in maintaining the rule of law and safeguarding rights.

10. Constitutional Bodies (Articles 148-323)

IAS aspirants should have a clear understanding of constitutional bodies like the Election Commission, Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG), Finance Commission, and Union Public Service Commission (UPSC). Their structure, functions, and relevance in governance are frequently tested in the exam.

Why Mastering These Provisions Matters

A deep understanding of these provisions enables IAS aspirants to answer questions in Prelims, Mains, and even the Interview stage with confidence. These concepts also form the foundation for addressing real-world governance challenges as future administrators.

NEW DELHI (AP) — Nearly 970 million people — or over 10% of the global population — are eligible to vote in India’s general elections that start Friday and last to June 1. The mammoth exercise is the biggest anywhere in the world and will take 44 days before results are announced on June 4.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is seeking a third successive term. He will face off against a broad but flailing alliance of opposition parties that are struggling to challenge his appeal. Most surveys predict Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party will win comfortably, cementing him as one of the country’s most popular and consequential leaders.

WHY DOES IT TAKE SO LONG?

It boils down to two key reasons: the sheer size of India, the world’s most populous country, and the astonishing level of logistics needed to ensure that every registered voter is able to cast their ballot.

Over the years, the duration of voting has wavered. It took nearly four months to complete the vote in India’s first elections in 1951-1952, after it gained independence from British rule, and just four days in 1980. In 2019, voting took 39 days, and this year’s election is the second longest.

With 969 million registered voters, the size of India’s electorate is bigger than the combined population of the 27 European Union member states. This includes 18 million first-time voters, and around 197 million who are in their 20s.

The vote to choose 543 lawmakers for the lower house of Parliament takes place over seven phases. India’s 28 states and eight federal territories will vote at different times. Each phase is one day, with the first held on April 19 and the last on June 1.

While some states will cast their ballots in a day, voting elsewhere may take longer. The largest state, Uttar Pradesh, which is the size of Brazil with 200 million people, will vote on all seven days, for example.

General elections in India tend to take weeks to conduct, but Modi’s opponents also say it gives him an advantage as it makes it easier for the prime minister, the public face of the BJP, to travel and campaign, especially in states where they are weak.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS

The Election Commission of India, which oversees the vote, has to make sure there is a voting booth available within 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) of every voter.

“Election officials have to travel to great lengths to ensure that even a single voter can exercise their franchise,” said Chakshu Roy of PRS Legislative Research, an independent think tank.

Some 15 million election officials and security staff will traverse the country’s deserts and mountains — sometimes by boat, foot and even on horseback — to try to reach every voter.

It can be especially arduous. In 2019, when India last held elections, a team of polling officers trekked over 480 kilometers (300 miles) for four days just so a single voter in a hamlet in the remote state of Arunachal Pradesh, which borders China, could exercise their right.

Officials also traveled to a village tucked away high up in the Himalayas in 2019 to install a booth at 15,256 feet (4,650 meters), the highest polling station anywhere in the world.

This time too, polling stations will be installed in remote places, including one inside a wildlife sanctuary in southern Kerala state and another in a shipping container in western Gujarat state.

TIGHT SECURITY

Experts say a key reason behind the multiphase elections in India is about security.

Tens of thousands of federal security forces, who usually guard borders for instance, are freed up and deployed alongside state police to prevent violence and transport electoral officials and voting machines.

Deadly clashes involving supporters of rival political parties, particularly in the eastern state of West Bengal, had marred previous elections. But such violence has tapered over the years, thanks to heavy security, and voting has been relatively peaceful.

“Look at the geography of the country … there are rivers, mountains, snow, jungles … think of the security forces’ movements. They will have to travel through the length and breadth of the country,” Rajiv Kumar, the chief election commissioner, said on Saturday. “We will walk the extra mile so voters don’t have to.”

One Nation, One Election: A Vision for Streamlining India's Democracy

The proposal for "One Nation, One Election" (ONOE) continues to be a topic of profound interest and debate in India. The concept, which seeks to synchronize Lok Sabha and State Assembly elections across all states, holds the promise of streamlining the electoral process, reducing costs, and fostering effective governance. In this article, we delve deeper into the ONOE proposal, its potential benefits, challenges, and the way forward for India's democratic landscape.

Historical Context:

The historical context of ONOE reflects India's evolving electoral landscape. In the early years following the enforcement of the Constitution in 1950, both Lok Sabha and State Assembly elections were held concurrently, simplifying the electoral process. However, this practice was disrupted in 1959 when the Kerala government was dismissed under Article 356, leading to separate election cycles for the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies.

The Law Commission of India (LCI) issued a report in 2018, acknowledging the constitutional and legal complexities of the ONOE proposal. The LCI recommended obtaining the approval of at least 50% of the States for such a transformative change.

Benefits and Challenges:

The ONOE proposal offers several potential benefits. By synchronizing elections, it could reduce the administrative burden on the Election Commission, save substantial costs associated with frequent elections, and create a more conducive environment for effective governance. It also allows political parties to shift their focus from perpetual campaign mode to policy formulation and implementation.

However, the challenges are substantial. Critics question the feasibility of implementing ONOE within the existing constitutional framework, particularly in light of the fixed tenures for the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies outlined in the Constitution. Addressing the possibility of mid-term government collapses and ensuring a clear mechanism for holding fresh elections remain significant hurdles.

Federalism and the concept of India as a Union of States are also subjects of concern. Critics argue that ONOE could potentially alter the balance of power between the central government and state governments, potentially infringing on the autonomy and authority of states.

A Comprehensive Approach:

To move closer to realizing the ONOE proposal, a comprehensive approach is necessary. Engaging legal experts to meticulously assess the required constitutional amendments and developing a contingency plan for handling midterm government collapses are critical steps.

Balancing federalism and centralization is crucial. Dialogue with state governments is necessary to address their concerns and craft a framework that respects federal principles while ensuring national electoral efficiency.

Exploring a hybrid accountability model, which retains staggered elections for select states while implementing ONOE for others, can help maintain distinct accountability mechanisms for national and state issues, ultimately promoting effective governance.

A transparent cost-benefit analysis should be conducted to dispel misconceptions and provide stakeholders with factual data on the financial implications of ONOE.

Conclusion:

The "One Nation, One Election" proposal presents an ambitious vision for India's democracy. While it faces formidable challenges, the concept offers the potential to streamline the electoral process, reduce costs, and enhance governance. The ongoing debate and deliberation serve as a testament to India's vibrant democratic traditions and its ability to adapt and evolve. As India continues to navigate the complexities of its democracy, the ONOE proposal remains a beacon of change and an embodiment of the nation's commitment to effective governance.

#BookReview - “Through the Broken Glass: A Fearless Journey of Electoral Reforms” unfolds the remarkable story of “T.N. Seshan”, an unwavering force who fearlessly fought to reshape India’s electoral landscape. Seshan pulls no punches in this captivating autobiography, boldly recounting his struggles while spearheading a transformative era of change. His unyielding resolve and unapologetic demeanor caught even the Union governments off guard, leaving an indelible mark on the nation’s history. The book is divided into 23 chapters that start with his birth. What is more fascinating is the simple language in which the book is written. The footnotes in some chapters are helpful too.

Born in Palakkad, Kerala, in 1932, Seshan commenced his career as a member of the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) in 1955. He held prominent positions, including District Collector of Madurai and Secretary to the Atomic Energy Commission, before assuming the role of Chief Election Commissioner in 1990. While Seshan’s reforms encountered criticism from certain quarters, his supporters maintained that his actions were necessary to rectify Indian politics and ensure a fair electoral framework.

T.N. Seshan, serving as the Chief Election Commissioner of India from 1990 to 1996, implemented crucial reforms that revolutionized the fairness and integrity of Indian elections. His notable achievements during his tenure include the introduction of photo voter I.D. cards, the prohibition of money and alcohol in elections, the establishment of the model code of conduct for political parties, and the reinforcement of the Election Commission’s authority. Despite facing resistance from some politicians, Seshan successfully transformed the electoral landscape of India, contributing to the cleanup of politics and fostering transparency and accountability in the electoral process.

Rahul Gandhi In Surat Today To Challenge His Conviction In Defamation Case

Rahul Gandhi is likely to move a plea in Surat's sessions court to set aside the Magistrate order convicting him in the defamation case for a remark seen as an insult to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

New Delhi/Surat: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will appear in a Gujarat court today to appeal against his conviction and two-year sentencing in a 2019 defamation case.

Rahul Gandhi is likely to move a plea in Surat's sessions court to set aside the Magistrate order convicting him in the defamation case for a remark seen as an insult to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The former Congress president, sources say, will also ask for an interim stay on the conviction which would also restore his Lok Sabha membership.

Mr Gandhi, who was recently disqualified as a parliament MP after the Gujarat's court order, will be accompanied by his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and the Chief Ministers of three Congress-ruled states - Ashok Gehlot, Bhupesh Baghel and Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu.

He had met his mother Sonia Gandhi yesterday before his court appearance.

The 52-year-old was convicted by a court and sentenced to prison for two years in Gujarat last month for a 2019 speech in which he linked PM Modi's last name with two fugitive businessmen, remarking how the "thieves" shared the same last name.

The court, however, granted him bail for 30 days to appeal the verdict.

The defamation case was filed against Rahul Gandhi by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA and former Gujarat minister Purnesh Modi for saying "How come all thieves have the common surname Modi?"

Mr Gandhi's Wayanad seat in Kerala is now vacant following his removal from the office and the Election Commission may now announce a special election for the seat.

Mr Gandhi's disqualification order prompted a fractured opposition to come together to attack the BJP over the alleged misuse of central investigative agencies against the members of rival parties.

The BJP has said the conviction has come from an independent judiciary, with party president JP Nadda accusing Mr Gandhi of insulting an Other Backward Class (OBC) community - a key vote base for the party.
