Detailed Solution

The features of the electoral system of Fiji is that the vote of an indigenous Fiji is more important than that of an Indian Fijian.
The national constituencies were abolished in response to pressure from Fijian ethnic nationalists who opposed allowing non-indigenous citizens or Indian Fijians to vote for indigenous Fijian members. Due to this reason, Fiji's electoral system is no longer democratic. It occurred because the indigenous Fijian population was granted primacy in prominent government and administrative positions, including the prime minister's office; on the other hand, the Indian-Fijian minority was under-represented in government according to its demographic share.
