Election lie at the very heart of democracy. Free and fair elections are the main spring of a healthy democratic life and a barometer of its strength and vitality. Electoral Administration must therefore, be free from pressure and interference of the executive and legislature. It should be able to secure fairness to all parties and candidates, through elections that people in a democracy participate in public affairs and express their will. It is again through elections that power changes hands in a peaceful and orderly manner in a democracy and the authority of government gets clothed with legitimacy. Elections, thus not only sustain democracy but enliven it as well. Holding of free and fair election is, therefore a sine qua non of democracy.
