Earlier , we read about how the struggle for democracy was linked to the demand for universal adult franchise
This principle has now come to be accepted almost all over the world. Yet there are many instances of denial of equal right to vote.
🔴 Until 2015 , in Saudi Arabia women did not have the right to vote.
🔴 Estonia has made its citizenship rules in such a way that people belonging to Russian minority find it difficult to get the right to vote.
🔴In Fiji , the electoral system is such that the vote of an indigenous Fiji has more value that of an Indian-Fijian.
