What is the purpose of setting expenditure limits in elections?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To reduce the influence of excessive money power

An expenditure limit is meant to prevent elections from being controlled mainly by wealth. Without such a limit, a very rich candidate or party could spend much more on advertisements, transport, publicity, workers, and other campaign activities. That spending could create greater visibility and influence even when the candidate does not have broader public support. Limits therefore help reduce the unequal effect of money power and encourage more comparable competition.

The rule does not remove the electoral roll, stop polling, or disqualify every candidate. It also does not mean that all candidates will have exactly equal resources; rather, it places a legal boundary on campaign expenditure and supports fairer conditions. Hence option A is correct because it identifies the reduction of excessive money power as the purpose. The supplied answer and explanation are accurate and suitable for the stated class level.
