Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Tuesday said that the Centre's move to introduce a bill on simultaneous polls in the Lok Sabha was an attempt to divert attention from issues plaguing the country, reported the PTI.

Addressing reporters in Maharashtra's Nagpur, Uddhav Thackeray demanded a transparent election process before implementation of the 'One Nation One Election' proposal.
