Answer 1

Dear student,

In a democracy, every decision is a democratic decision which not only involves consultation but also consent of all those people who will be affected by that decision. People should have equal right to vote irrespective of their age, class, creed, gender and race. However, lack of awareness and exposure among the voters may incline them towards parties and leaders who lure them with fall promises and perks. Also, the voter should have a lot of commitment for the country and should make decisions for overall welfare of the nation and not just for his own benefits .

For an equal right to vote, every citizen needs equal information and commitment because only when the citizens are provided all the information about the government and its vision, will they be able to vote for the right candidate.
