What is generally the minimum voting age in India?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Eighteen years

Correct answer: D, eighteen years. In India, a citizen who has reached 18 years of age and satisfies the other legal requirements can be registered as a voter, subject to the applicable electoral rules. The age condition is a minimum threshold: being 18 does not mean a person can vote without registration or without being included in the relevant electoral roll. A is wrong because 16 is below the general voting age. B is also below the required age. C is wrong because citizens do not have to wait until 20 to become eligible. The important distinction is between voting eligibility and candidacy, because different public offices can have different age rules. Memory cue: adult voting in India begins at 18—“eighteen to participate.”
