उत्तर
Voting is every citizen's right in a democracy and it should be exercised regularly. Voting makes sure the right candidates get elected and run our government. We cannot blame the non-performance of a government if we do not turn out to vote. Not casting a vote is equivalent to not having faith in democracy.
