Answer 2

Answer:

Universal adult franchise states that the right to vote should be given to all adult citizens without discrimination of class, caste, colour, religion or gender. “Franchise” is derived from the French word “franc” which means “free.” The long struggles in the history of the world for this right to vote has paved the path for the present privileges that we enjoy in choosing our representatives.
