Answer:
Explanation:
The elections in China do not represent people's verdict. Democracy is a major concept introduced to China in the late 19th century. In China, elections are regularly held after every five years for electing the country's Parliament, called National People's Congress. It as nearly 3000 members elected from all over China. Some members are elected by the army. This National People's Congress has the power to appoint the President of the country. Before contesting elections, a candidate needs the approval of the Chinese Communist Party. Only those who are members of the Chinese Communist Party or eight smaller parties allied to it are allowed to contest elections in China. The government is always formed by the Communist Party.
Thus, we cannot say that the elections in China are free and fair. It is always restricted by the Communist Party and hence, the elections do not represent people verdict in China.Elections in China are based on a hierarchical electoral system, whereby local People's Congresses are directly elected, and all higher levels of People's Congresses up to the National People's Congress (NPC), the national legislature, are indirectly elected by the People's Congress of the level immediately below.[1] The NPC Standing Committee may partially alter laws passed by the NPC when the NPC is not in session, which is significant since the Standing Committee meets more frequently than the NPC.[2]
Governors, mayors, and heads of counties, districts, townships and towns are in turn elected by the respective local People's Congresses.[3] Presidents of people's courts and chief procurators of people's procuratorates are elected by the respective local People's Congresses above the county level.[3] The President and the State Council are elected by the National People's Congress, which is made of 2980 people.
