Paragraph On Voting Right
Voting is the most important political
right of every adult citizen of a democratic country. Democracy chooses a
government of the majority. In ancient city-states of Greece, all the citizens
sat together and decided the affairs of the state. But with the increase in the
size and population of states, the voting system has cropped up. At first, only men
were allowed to vote. Women had to struggle to achieve the right of voting.
Nowadays, all citizens, male and female of the age of 18 and above have voting right. This is known as universal adult suffrage. Members of parliament, the president, and members of local bodies are elected by secret votes. So voting right
is a sacred right of every citizen. Proper and just verdicts of the voters can help
the formation of a good government in a country. The authority should ascertain
that every voter can cast his own vote according to his own will in order to
establish true democracy in the country.
