Answer:

Power can be shared between political parties in the following ways:

2. The party which loses the elections forms the opposition party. It checks on the functioning of ruling party and criticize them for their wrong actions.

3. Many Parties can come together to form a alliance by which they can get the support of maximum people. Alliances are usually formed before the election.
