Background

This worksheet supplements the Government Unit in the Social and Political Life – 1 Textbook. It challenges Grade 6 NCERT students to think about the Supreme Court of India and how it can intervene in matters of governance. In particular, the worksheet focuses on elections, a key element of democratic government.

The worksheet introduces students to the Electoral Disqualification case: should we disqualify people accused of crimes from contesting elections, even before they are found guilty?

This worksheet challenges students to connect this Unit with Unit 1 of the Textbook on Diversity. It aims to have them ask themselves with the question, what kinds of diversity are good (and which ones are bad)?
