elections and democracy
Elections are the most important for the sustenance of democracy. Elections are the process by which people of 18 years vote for their representatives. Representatives then take decisions on behalf of public and formulate welfare policies.
We distinguish between direct and indirect democarcy. Direct democracy is a process where people donot elect representatives. Here people directly participate in decision making. People sit together, discuss and make their own decisions which are then implemented by them. for example: ancient city states in greece. But it is possible only when population is small. Because in small population everybody can participate in decision making.
But where population is large direct democracy is not possible. Such a large population cannot take decisions. It will lead to tensions, chaos and delay in decision making. So there is indirect democracy where people elect their own representatives and these representatives then take decisions. Like india, USA or any other country. In india direct democracy exists in village panchayats.
