Solution

The correct option is C To ensure that voting happens fairly in voting booths.
Polling agents can be sent to each polling station by the candidates. This polling agent must be given an ID card. However, the name of the party or the party symbol should not be shown on the ID card. These agents ensure that voting happens fairly in the polling booth. In case it does not, they can inform the candidate they represent.
