Answers
Democracy has led to development in a longer run, security and dignity of the people in the following ways:
Development: It has been observed that there is a slower rate of development in democratic countries. But it has also been argumented that economic development depends on certain factors such as the population of the country, availability of natural resources, economic trade policies and global co-operation.
Security: Since the judiciary system is strong and independent in a democracy, every individual gets a chance to improve and develop his/her social and economic position in a democractic country.
Dignity: Fundamental rights and freedoms are provided to people in a democratic country. This promotes dignity of individual.
Democracy in India is sustained by:
The Constitution
Parliament and State Legislatures
The Supreme Court
The Election Commission
The Press and Electronic Media
