Background

The Government of India has been promoting “One Nation One System” at a large scale. Under this system, the One Nation One Ration Card has been implemented by twenty-eight states so far. One Nation One Grid has been launched to connect power stations and major substations in the country. This will ensure that electricity generated anywhere in the country can be used to satisfy the demand elsewhere.

Also, the concept of “One Nation, One Election” is being pushed. Under this, both state and central elections will be held together. This is being pushed as it will reduce election expenditure greatly.

Recently, the Government of India announced that the Central Investment Cell will be launched by April 2021. The cell will make sure that the investor gets all the required information and clearances under one platform. It will act as an One-Stop Digital Platform.
