Q.2 What are the issues with postponing the upcoming Assembly elections? Suggest the way forward.

  • In the intro, mention the Allahabad High Court urging EC to postpone the election due to the increasing threat of Omicron.
  • In the body, mention the constitutional challenges as Constitution provides fixed term to every assembly, the House stands dissolved as the term ends. The term of the House can be extended in the case of Emergency only. Next mention that the law requires a poll process of 26 days. The suggestions mention banning rallies, encouraging virtual campaigning, reducing the number of voters per booth, etc.
  • Conclude by mentioning the need for strict enforcement of the guidelines of the EC.
