in Afghanistan held parliamentary and provincial council elections on September 18, 2005. The Final results were delayed by accusations of election fraud, and were finally announced on November 12, 2005.
Former warlords and their followers gained the majority of seats in both the lower house and the provincial council in (which elects the members of the upper house). Women won 28% of the seats in the lower house, six more than the 25% guaranteed in the 2004 Constitution.
Turnout was estimated at about 50%, substantially in lower than at the presidential election in October 2004. This was blamed on the lack of identifiable party lists as a result of Afghanistan's new electoral law, which left the voters in many cases unclear on who they were voting for. I Hope this helped. :)
Answer:
Option (1)
Explanation:
Hotspots are the regions where the magma rises towards the surface due to the presence of large mantle plumes. The force exerted by the magma here is very high. When the lithospheric plates move over these regions, the magma comes out to the surface forming volcanoes. And as the plates move away from the region of hotspot they eventually cool. These hots spots are fixed at a place. There are numerous hotspots on earth. for example, the Hawaiin island chain, below which there are regions of hotspots.
Thus, the hotspot regions are not associated with the plate boundaries.
Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
