Answers
In a democracy every citizen is equal. A democracy is of the people, for the people and by the people. This could work only if every citizen is free and able to choose the government they want. this could be achieved only if every citizen has a right to vote, which is guaranteed by universal adult franchise.
Universal suffrage (also called universal franchise, general suffrage, and common suffrage of the common man) gives the right to vote to all adult citizens, regardless of wealth, income, gender, social status, race, ethnicity, political stance, or any other restriction, subject only to relatively minor exceptions.[1][2] In its original 19th-century usage by reformers in Britain, universal suffrage was understood to mean only universal manhood suffrage; the vote was extended to women later, during the women's suffrage movement.
