Question

Mention the various drawbacks of democracy

Answer 1

India, the largest democracy of the world seeks to look after the benefits of its people. It has a long and detailed constitution with its underlying features. It has a detailed understanding of the rights of the citizens and proper procedure for the functioning of the democratic government. Fundamental rights and Directive principles of state policy form the basic structure of the constitution. The makers of our constitution, who were the members of the constituent assembly, were also active members of the national movement at the time of national struggle for Independence. They strongly believed that imperialism had destroyed India’s economy and has worsened the plight of people. Therefore, Democracy as a form of government was considered to solve all the problems. Democracy was an ongoing demand of almost all the national leaders. Therefore, it was for the first time that Democracy had been put into practice in a diversified country like India with a large proportion of illiterate people.
