assertion: majority community is dominant in a few democratic countries
reason: dominance can undermine the unity of the country
pls answer to this ques

Answer 1

Both the Assertion and Reason are true.

• The fact that Sri Lanka and Belgium are both democratic countries demonstrates this. They did, however, tackle the social issue of ability distribution in a variety of ways.
• Belgium's authorities realised that considering the opinions and interests of diverse communities and areas is the best approach to promote national unity.
• As the case of Sri Lanka demonstrates, such understanding led to mutual agreement power-sharing accords.
• It vividly illustrates how a majority community's real desire to impose its dominance over others, as well as its seeming refusal to share authority, can jeopardise the social cohesion of an independent country.

Answer 2

(a) Both Assertion (A) and Renson (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)

• There are many democratic countries in the world that have the dominance of the majority community.
• Example: Indonesia is a democratic country but is dominated by the majority religion.
• In a democracy, the minority and majority should rule together in harmony.
• The dominance of a particular community can develop a feeling of discrimination among minorities. This may affect the unity of the country.
