‘Internal pressure’: Vaishnaw hits back at Kharge
On Kharge’s remark calling ‘One Nation One Election’ as ‘impractical’, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said, “The Opposition might start feeling internal pressure (about One Nation One Election) as more than 80 per cent of respondents who responded during consultant process have given their positive support, especially the youth, they are very much in favour of this.”
