bye !
In a democratic country people themselves select and elect a representative as their leader. Democracy can be defined as the government of the people, by the people and for the people. It is a political system where people are supreme and freedom of choice is its core. The term 'democracy' originated from the Greek term 'dēmokratía' which means “rule of the people”. There are two types of democracies in the world. One is direct democracy, in which the eligible citizens directly and actively participate in the political decision-making. Second is indirect democracy, in which the sovereign power remains with the eligible citizens and the elected representatives exercise the political power; this type of democracy is also known as democratic republic or the representative democracy.
India - A Democracy
India is the largest democracy in the world. It was declared secular and democratic when its Constitution came into force on 26 January 1950. The democratic India believes in the principles of equality, liberty, justice and fraternity. The people from any caste, creed, sex, religion, and region have an equal right to vote and choose their representatives. The parliamentary form of government in India is based on the pattern of the British. In India, there is a federal form of government which means there is a government at the centre and at the state. The government at the centre is responsible to the parliament, and the state governments are responsible towards their respective legislative assemblies. The government at the centre and the state are democratically elected and follow the patterns of the two houses of the Parliament - Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The government at the centre and the state together elect the President of the country who is also the Head of the State.
