  • Question

  • Statement: Should "literacy" be the minimum criterion for becoming a voter in India?

    Arguments:

    1. No. Mere literacy is no guarantee of political maturity of an individual.
    2. Yes. Illiterate people are less likely to make politically wiser decisions of voting for a right candidate or party.
    3. No. Voting is the constitutional right of every citizen.


  • Options
  • A. None is strong
  • B. Only I and II are strong
  • C. Only III is strong
  • D. Only II and III are strong
  • E. All are strong

  • Correct Answer
  • All are strong 

    Explanation
    Clearly, illiterate people lack will power and maturity in thoughts. They may easily be misled into false convictions or lured into temptations to vote for a particular group. So, argument II holds. However, a person is literate does not mean that he is conscious of all political movements, which requires practical awareness of everyday events. Thus, I also holds strong. Besides, Constitution has extended the right to vote equally to all its citizens. Hence, III also holds.
