Conclusion to Synchronized elections of state assemblies and general assembly :
After going through lots of reports by commissions and committees the main concern of this system of election is that it will ease the government's financial burden and will lead to a better and more effective administration.
Talking about financial burden there are several reports which claim that a single state legislative election costs approximately 200-300 crore rupees (INR). Similarly, you can survey any group of people whether they have faced any issues or delay in any time of administrative works during the election period or not. You will definitely get a big yes from them. But giving a conclusion like that isn't what we can rely on. Making it more practical, think practically how any departments can work effectively when 50-70% of their staff are busy with election duty. In simultaneous elections, they will also get busy but the difference is that they will not get busy frequently as of now in the always election mood.
Even after knowing all these things, we should keep a close eye on the fact that due to the simultaneous election no harm should be there to one of the basic and peculiar features of our Constitution is Federalism. Along with that focus should be on the local issues which were raised by local /regional parties, they act as an agent of a better and pure democracy as they raise local issues and they better connect with people, the ultimate unit of democracy.
