The Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) on Wednesday ridiculed the Centre for approving the proposal for 'one nation, one election', jibing that it could not hold voting in Maharashtra and Haryana together but intends to conduct simultaneous polls, reported the PTI.

According to the PTI, Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson and MP Arvind Sawant wondered whether 'one nation, one election' was a priority of the government when there were more pressing issues like unemployment, inflation, crimes against women and farmers' woes.
