Essay​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Constitution of India gives every adult (18 years or above of age) the right to chose representatives through the exercise of his right to vote. There are no conditions attached to this right. Under British rule too, there was some form of representative government but the right to vote was restricted to around one sixth of adults who would have been eligible under universal franchise.

Our Constitution has now extended political powers down the common man. The voters exercise their right to vote to elect representatives to the Lok Sabha, the State Legislative Assemblies and the Local bodies down to the Gram Panchayat.
