Why may the fairness of elections be doubted without an independent Election Commission?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the risk of ruling-party influence over the process increases

Correct answer: D. An independent Election Commission is expected to administer elections neutrally, apply rules consistently, supervise important stages, and help prevent the ruling party from using state machinery unfairly. Without such institutional independence, citizens may fear that the government in power can influence scheduling, campaigning rules, polling arrangements, counting, or complaints. Option D is correct because the central concern is possible control or bias by those already in power. A is wrong because vote value is not automatically reduced by the absence of an independent commission. B is wrong because forgetting to vote is an individual matter. C is wrong because candidates may still campaign. Memory cue: an independent commission acts like a neutral referee in the electoral contest.
