Shiv Sena leader and Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has supported the concept of simultaneous polls, saying frequent elections are not good for the economy and hamper growth.
In a letter to former President Ram Nath Kovind, who is the chairman of the high-level committee on 'One Nation, One Election', Mr. Shinde said simultaneous polls are one of the "most critical reforms" proposed by the NDA government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
