Accountable government Democracy produces an accountable government as the people have the right to choose their representatives through the electoral process.
These elected representatives form the government and participate in the decision-making process on behalf of the people. This is known as transparency. If these elected representatives do not work in a proper way, people have a chance to not elect them in next election.
Responsive government Democracy produces a responsive government. As democratic government is elected by the people, it is people’s own government. It promotes the formation of public opinion and .take care of the needs and expectation of the people.
Legitimate government Further, democratic government is a legitimate government because regular election after a fixed time is its key feature. It may be slow, less efficient but it is the people’s own legitimate government.
