The bill also has a provision for the situation when elections of any assembly cannot be held along with the parliamentary elections. According to subsection five of section-two of the bill, 'If the Election Commission feels that the elections of any assembly cannot be held along with the Lok Sabha elections, then it can request the President to issue an order that the elections of the said assembly can be held at a later date.'

Amendments will be made in Article 83 (term of the Houses of Parliament), Article 172 (term of State Legislative Assemblies), and Article 327 (Power of Parliament to make provisions related to elections of Legislative Assemblies).
