Gandhiji strongly believed that every adult in India should be given the right to vote. However, a few people don't share his views. They feel that illiterate people, who are mainly poor, should not be given the right to vote. What do you think? Do you think this would be a form of discrimination? Give five points to support your view and share these with the class.
I agree to Gandhiji’s belief that every adult in India should be given equal rights to vote because:
1. India is a democratic country and one of the most essential feature of democracy is to ensure equality to all citizens of the country.
2. If literacy is the reason then the government should make sure that it should provide literacy to all which is one of the rights of all citizens.
3. We should honor the dignity of every person, whether rich or poor, high caste or good social status etc.
4. No one should be discriminate on the basis of their social status and these rules are written in our constitution.
5. A person do not become poor because of his choice but because of circumstances. Dishonesty can develop in any person whether he is rich or poor and every adult develops a certain level of maturity which gives him enough wisdom to think about the government.
