01:00I would like to thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his every decision is for the national interest.
01:14These ongoing elections are a hindrance in the development of the country.
01:20In our country, for 5 years, 365 days, 12 months of election preparation is going on.
01:27Delhi Elections, Bihar Elections, Haryana Elections, Maharashtra Elections, Jharkhand Elections, Jammu Kashmir Elections, Lok Sabha Elections.
01:38These ongoing elections are a hindrance in the development of the country.
01:45People's welfare is affected.
01:48There is an unnecessary expenditure of money by the government and political parties.
01:53The Chief Minister and even the Prime Minister have to spend a lot of time in the elections.
02:02Officials from one state go to another state to run elections, as observers.
02:08The elections of that state and the work of development of that state get stalled.
02:13Because of the National Code of Conduct, because of the Aachar Sanhita, all the work of development gets stalled.
02:21The work of public welfare is not done.
02:23And the biggest thing is that every political party is hesitating.
02:28If there is a big decision from the government, then don't take it.
02:30Otherwise, it will affect a particular election.
02:32So, big political decisions that are for the national interest, are not taken.
02:38Therefore, if the Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections are held once in five years,
02:44then we will get at least four and a half years to work.
02:47The country will move forward.
02:49The public will benefit.
02:51Therefore, both the elections should be held at the same time.
