Answer 2

ᴀɴsᴡᴇʀ:

Democracy is spreading very fast in the world because people want it and struggle for it. All great people have said nice things about this form of government. Obviously democracy is the best option among all other political systems available in the world. Those who prefer it, give the following arguments:

(i) Democracy is better than any other form of government in responding to the needs of the people. A non-democratic government may and can respond to the people’s needs, but it all depends on the wishes of the people who rule. If the rulers dont’t want to, they don’t have to act according to the wishes of the people. A democracy requires that the rulers have to attend to the needs of the people. Thus, a democratic government is a better government because it is a more accountable form of government.

(ii) Democracy is based on consultation and discussion. A democratic decision always involves many persons, discussions and meetings. This reduces the chances of rash or irresponsible decisions. Thus, democracy improves the quality of decision-making.

(iii) Democracy provides a method to deal with differences and conflicts. In a diverse country like India, democracy keeps our country together. Democracy provides the peaceful solution if there are clashes between two different groups. It creates an atmosphere of mutual cooperation and coordination.

(iv) Democracy enhances the dignity of citizens. We know that democracy is based on the principle of political equality, on recognising that the poorest and the least educated has the same status as the rich and the educated . People are not subject of a ruler, they are the rulers themselves.

(v) Democracy is better than other forms of government because it allows us to correct its own mistakes. There is no guarantee that mistakes cannot be made in democracy. No form of government can guarantee that. The advantage in a democracy is that such mistakes cannot be hidden for long. There is a space for public discussion on these mistakes, and there is a room for correction. Thus, democracy is clearly better than any other alternative that we know.
