(B) Anna (31 year) is casting her vote in the Lok Sabha election. (C) Jaspreet (17 year) is casting his vote in an election for school council. Choose the correct option. Correct Answer A and B

The principle of Universal Adult Franchise states that all citizens above a fixed age have the right to vote. No one can be denied this right based on caste, creed, race, economic status, religion, or gender.

Important Points 

  • The Indian Constitution has adopted universal adult franchise as a basis of elections to the Lok Sabha and the state legislative assemblies.
  • Article 326 defines a universal adult franchise as the basis for elections to all levels of the elected government.
  • The universal Adult Franchise refers that all citizens who are 18 years and above irrespective of their caste or education, religion, colour, race and economic conditions are free to vote.

Additional Information 

  • Eligibility to Vote: Any Indian Citizen of/above 18 years of age.

Hence the statement in which Mujleha (19 year) is casting her vote in an assembly election and (B) Anna (31 year) is casting her vote in the Lok Sabha election, is right because they come under universal adult franchise where above 18 age group can caste vote.
