The Parliament was abuzz earlier this week as MPs debated the introduction of a landmark constitutional amendment Bill proposing simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha and state Assemblies—widely known as One Nation, One Election.

Advocates claim it will streamline governance and save resources, while critics warn it could marginalise regional parties and centralise power.

In this episode, host Nidhi Sharma dives deep into the proposed 129th constitutional amendment–How does it aim to synchronise India’s electoral cycles, and what are its implications for federalism and democracy? What’s driving the NDA government’s push for this reform? Why is the Opposition so fiercely against it? And what’s next in this high-stakes political showdown?–with Members of Parliament, Manish Tewari, and Sanjay Singh and PRS Legislative Research’s Chakshu Roy.

Join us as we unpack the complexities of this contentious Bill, its historical context, and its potential impact on India's political landscape. Tune in for a balanced analysis of one of India’s most ambitious and debated legislative moves.

When Sundaraman Ramamurthy became the chief of Bombay Stock Exchange, he found an organisation that was almost on the brink of irrelevance. He found highly dwindled cash market share, no opening in equity derivatives and a heap of operational issues.

Could he “make the elephant dance?” is the question many asked.

But from there, Ramamurthy led a remarkable turnaround of the bourses with a mix of strategic initiatives and basic steps: painstakingly going to hundreds of brokers and asking them what would make them start trading again. While issues still persist, especially in segments such as F&O, Ramamurthy has calm, tactical plans to tide over them.

In this episode of “ET Wealth and Beyond” ET’s markets editor Nishanth Vasudevan talks to Ramamurthy on the story of BSE’s resurgence, the strategy driving this transformation, and its future amidst evolving regulatory frameworks.
