SUMA appreciated the Simultaneous poll steps of Nabam Tuki Govt

The Students Union Movement of Arunachal (SUMA) has welcomed the initiative of the State Government to recommend simultaneous polls for both Parliamentary and Assembly constituencies in Arunachal Pradesh.

“We believe this is a historic and one of the most intelligent moves of the state government in the recent times,” SUMA said

“Election process involves huge expenditure and conduction of the Assembly polls along with the Parliamentary elections will minimize the expenditure to a large extent,”

Also, the burden on government officials on election duty will be lessened. If the Assembly polls were to be conducted after six months, the whole machinery will again have to be geared up, which will be tiresome exercise,

SUMA appealed to all civil societies, political parties, student organizations and citizens to welcome the move and get prepared for the polls. It further said that opposition to the initiative for simultaneous polls, if any, from any quarter, will be with only political and selfish interests.

“SUMA will oppose any move by any organization that opposes the simultaneous poll initiative,”
