Solution

Universal Adult Franchise is the right of every adult to vote in a democratic form of government. They have the right to chose their representatives for the effective running of the government.

Universal Adult Franchise is not implemented globally. Though maximum countries with representative form of government follow this principle, it is not followed in countries like Saudi Arabia as women have been denied the right to vote there.
