If South Africa's constitution had given only political rights but ignored social discrimination, what deficiency would remain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Equal citizenship would remain incomplete

Correct answer: A. Political rights include rights such as voting and participating in government, but citizenship is broader than elections. Under apartheid, racial discrimination affected where people could live, study, work, travel and use public facilities. If a constitution protected voting but left these social inequalities untouched, citizens would still not enjoy equal dignity and equal treatment in daily life. Thus equal citizenship would remain incomplete. A is correct because democracy requires both political participation and protection from discrimination. B is wrong because social equality does not remove the need for voting. C is wrong because apartheid cannot become just merely by adding limited political rights. D is not a necessary result; the question is about the constitutional deficiency, not one person's office. Memory cue: democracy means equal voice plus equal status in everyday life.
