AnswerClick to flip back
A
One vote.
💡 Explanation:
In a democracy, every adult citizen must have one vote. Universal Adult Franchise means that all the adults, i.e. people above 18 years of age can participate in the election or have the right to vote. One person, one vote means that everyone in the country irrespective of the caste, gender and income earned is allowed to vote for his own representative and his vote is also considered important though the whole nation does not vote every time. Hence, Option A is correct. Since one vote by each individual is required to elect representatives, casting multiple votes makes the nomination invalid, hence, the other options are incorrect.
