As per the instructions given in this report, it seems that as the first step, elections to the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies will be held simultaneously. The committee recommended that local body elections should also be held within 100 days of the Lok Sabha and State Assembly elections being held simultaneously. With this, the entire country can hold elections at all levels within a fixed period. At present four states, Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim, and Odisha are holding Lok Sabha and Assembly elections at the same time. Parliament and Assembly elections are not being held at the same time in other states.

This committee approached 62 political parties, 32 of them supported One Nation, One Election. Meanwhile, 15 parties opposed it. Another 15 parties did not respond.
