India's experiment with "universal adult franchise" appeared very bold & risky.

Explanation:

  • India experiments with "Universal Adult Franchise" that appeared very "risky  & bold" since by that time several nations in Europe did not give "voting rights" to women
  • India began planning the first constitutional draft on the basis of an universal adult franchise in November 1947. The endeavor was undertaken by a few officials in the "Secretariat" of the "Constituent Assembly". They undertook this experiment in the middle of the partition  between India & Pakistan which had torn the land & citizens apart. Besides 552 "princely sovereign states' had yet to be "integrated" in India.
  • It took a great deal of imaginative force to turn all "adult Indians" into voters for the next two years even before they had become  citizens at the outset of the constitution. A significant change from colonial tradition was the introduction of "universal suffrage for adults", as decided at the outset of the constitutional debates in the year April 1947. India pushed the limits of political thought across the world and gave rise to the biggest democracy.
  • India's 1952 election was a milestone in democratic history in the world. It could no longer contend that democratic votes can not be held in "poor & lack of educational" conditions. This showed that democracy can be exercised worldwide. In India, democracy was reinforced by the subsequent two general elections
