We can take the example of India. In India, the

government is accountable to the citizens.

(i) Government policies in India are based on the democratic values.

(ii) It is able to respond to the needs of the people.

(iii) It holds multi-party elections.

(iv) It has opposition parties to criticize the citizens.

(v) Democracy

ensures that decision-making will be based on norms and procedures. So, a citizen who wants to know if a decision was

taken through the correct procedures can find it out. This is known as transparency. So, this

shows democracy produces a government which follows the

procedures and is accountable to the government.

(vi) A democratic government rules

within limits set by constitutional law and citizen's right.

(vii) Democracy provides a method to deal with

difference and conflicts. It is suitable in countries like India. India has diversity of language, religion and culture.

(viii) It is better than other forms of

government because it allows us to correct our own mistakes.

(ix) Democracy also increases the dignity of the citizens, because it is based on the principle of polticial equality. This means that the poorest and the least educated have the same status as the rich as the rich and educated
