(3) Article 15; prohibits discrimination by the state against any citizen on grounds 'only' of caste, religion, sex, race, and place of birth.
(4) Universal Adult Franchise means that the right to vote should be given to all adult citizens without the discrimination of caste, class, colour, religion or gender. It is based on equality, which is a basic principle of democracy...In a democracy every citizen is equal. A democracy is of the people, for the people and by the people. This could work only if every citizen is free and able to choose the government they want. this could be achieved only if every citizen has a right to vote, which is guaranteed by universal adult franchise.
I hope this will be help you.
