Election Management

Transparent and fair elections are the essence of democracy. Starting the latter half of the 20th century, the world had seen remarkable transition of undemocratic governance to democratic ones. But the reputed international institutions monitoring the global democratic trends have observed a troubling trend over the last two decades: decline in democracy. And factors, such as bad governance, persistent economic hardships, failure to address the emerging challenges posed by cutting-edge technology as well as climate change, shifts in geopolitics, rise of populism, among others, have been blamed for the decline.
