On December 17, Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal introduced the Constitutional Amendment Bill in the Lok Sabha for "One Nation, One Election." In response, Congress MP Manish Tewari opposed the bill, arguing that it violates the basic structure of the Indian Constitution. He highlighted that the Constitution`s federalism and democratic structure cannot be changed through such amendments, as they are beyond the legislative power of Parliament. Samajwadi Party MP Dharmendra Yadav also opposed the bill, expressing confusion over how the government quickly moved to amend the Constitution after claiming to protect it. He supported Tewari`s view and stressed the wisdom of the Constitution`s framers, opposing any changes that undermine its core principles.
