Democracy can lead to instability as the leaders keep changing in a democratic government. Quick action is not possible as many people need to be consulted before making any kind of decision. There is lack of morality while the electorate competition provides scope for corruption and bad decisions.
There have been many arguments both for and against democracy. Some arguments in favour of democracy are:
A democratic government is more accountable to its people
A democratic government can ensure better decisions.
Democracy enables people to deal with differences and conflicts in a peaceful manner.
The effect of democracy on citizens in enforcing political equality is:
Democracy enhances the dignity of citizens.
It accords the same status to all people regardless of wealth or education.
The citizens rule themselves through elected representatives.
Democracy allows us to correct our own mistakes.
Democracy as a form of government allows for relatively more transparency.

Advantages of democracy
1. Responsible and accountable Government: The democratic form of government is run by the elected representatives of the people of the country. It is the people of the democratic country who rule the country through their representatives. Thus, the elected representatives act responsible for the well-being of citizens of the country. Democracy ensures popular control and popular responsibility and the elected representatives remains accountable to them.
2. Equality and fraternity: Democracy preaches the equality and fraternity of men. The idea of the equality of man was strengthened by the idea of nationalism. Every nation felt that it had the right to be free, to throw off foreign domination. If that is so, if a nation has the right of self-determination, it follows logically that every man has the right to determine how he will be governed. The modern world is dominated by two principles, viz. democracy and nationalism.
3. Sense of responsibility among common people: The achievements of democracy are many. It has infused into the common people a sense for responsibility and power. It has enriched the life of the people who take a warm interest in the affairs of their country and of the world. With greater and greater democracy has come greater and greater freedom. Everyone is free to express his opinions, and although occasionally there may be restrictions on individuals, personal liberty is the goal of democracy, and there is more freedom is democracy than in any other form of government.
4. Self-government: Democracy has gradually become universal because it is inevitable. Man is born with an innate tendency to be free, and he cannot help feeling that he should govern himself. He may be more effectively governed by others, but he will say that good government is no substitute for self-government, and in actual practice, democracy has improved the lot of the common man beyond the dreams of his forefathers who lived under kingship or feudalism. The common man is now not only freer, but he is more educated and wealthier and happier than he used to be in the part.
5. Development and prosperity for all: Democracy ensures development and prosperity for all. Democracy brings the greatest good for the largest number of people. Democracy can realize the concept of the welfare state where every man or women can claim the right to food, to education and to employment. Day by day, through a just distribution of taxes, through various welfare measures, the distinction between the rich and poor is being abolished and the equality of man is being realized.
6. Popular Sovereignty: The supreme power vests in the hands of the common-people of the country. If the elected representatives act irresponsibly, then they can be dropped in the next election. Hence, democracy ensures sovereignty of the people.
7. Sense of cooperation and fraternal feeling: Every citizen, men or women, rich or poor, is considered equal in the eyes of law. The feeling of unity, oneness, and cooperation is the basis of democracy. The dignity and honour of every individual is protected without any discrimination. The social gap is thus reduced.
