Explanation
S1 notes the restricted franchise in other democracies. R describes the give-and-take behind the provisions, and Q marks with ‘however’ the one point of substantial agreement. S names it — the vote for every adult Indian — and P calls it an unprecedented act of faith. Hence option (b), RQSP, is correct.
