Who has the right to vote in Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assembly elections according to the source?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. Only Indian citizensB. केवल भारतीय नागरिक
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the source, only Indian citizens have the right to vote in elections to the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies.
This illustrates the distinction between citizenship and mere residence.
A person may reside in India without necessarily possessing all political rights reserved for citizens.
The source also states that only Indian citizens are eligible to become members of Parliament or a State Legislature.
These facts show that certain political rights are specifically connected with citizenship.
The source later identifies certain Fundamental Rights—Articles 15, 16, 19 and 29—as available only to citizens.
For examination purposes, voting in Lok Sabha and State Assembly elections should therefore be associated with Indian citizenship.
स्रोत के अनुसार लोकसभा और राज्य विधानसभाओं के चुनावों में मतदान का अधिकार केवल भारतीय नागरिकों को प्राप्त है। यह नागरिकता और केवल निवास के बीच अंतर को स्पष्ट करता है। कोई व्यक्ति भारत में रह सकता है, लेकिन यदि वह भारतीय नागरिक नहीं है तो उसे सभी राजनीतिक अधिकार प्राप्त नहीं होते। स्रोत यह भी बताता है कि संसद अथवा राज्य विधानमंडल का सदस्य बनने के लिए भी केवल भारतीय नागरिक ही पात्र होते हैं। आगे स्रोत अनुच्छेद 15, 16, 19 और 29 के अधिकारों को भी केवल नागरिकों से जोड़ता है।
