In India, before Independence, only a small minority was allowed to vote.The poor, women,the property-less and the uneducated were not allowed to vote. We think that the people must be given the right to vote. 

The given statement shows it a case of discrimination because of the following: 

(i) All citizens are equal by law. 

(ii) According to constitution, there is no difference between a man and woman, a poor and a rich. 

(iii) The laws are not made for men only. (iv) All citizens must be granted right to vote.
