Question 1.
\nWhy were the first elections difficult to conduct? List as many reasons as you can.
\nAnswer:
\nAn Election Commission was set up to conduct the elections in a free and fair manner. Making arrangements for the first elections was a large and complex task. First, a house-to-house survey was carried out to register the eligible voters.<\/p>\n

People who contested elections belonged to political parties or were Independents. Election Commission gave a symbol to each of these candidates. These symbols were painted on the ballot boxes in which the votes had to be cast. The voters had to put their ballot paper into the box of the candidate they wanted to vote for. Screens were set up so that the voting (ballot) was secret.<\/p>\n

Over 2,24,000 polling booths were set up across the country. Over 25,00,000 steel ballot boxes were made. Nearly 62,00,00,000 ballot papers were printed. About 10 lakh officials supervised the polls. Nearly 17,500 candidates had contested the elections across the country. Finally, 489 people were elected to the first Lok Sabha. The elections were conducted in a fair, free, impartial, and orderly manner, with very little violence. So we can say that the first elections were a large and complex task.<\/p>\n

                          \nAnswer:
                          \nSome people said, \u201cThe elections are \u2018a leap in the dark\u2019, not suitable for a country like India. India is a caste-based society in which many people do not accept the idea that everyone is equal. So it won\u2019t be possible to have a democratic election.\u201d<\/p>\n

                          There were other people who were very hopeful. They said, \u201cIndians have participated in the National Movement to gain freedom from the British. They want to elect a government of their own choice. They want the government to work towards creating a society where every\u00acone is treated equally. They also want the government to improve the living conditions of the people. Thus everyone should have an equal opportunity to elect a government of their choice.\u201d To such people, the elections were \u2018an act of faith\u2019.<\/p>\n
