Question

Q2) Read the passage carefully and answer as per the instruction given. (8 marks)
1. Democracy is the latest and the best form of government evolved by mankind. But it is the only form that allows man to live with dignity and promises him every opportunity, to develop his potential and justify his existence. It is a way of life which has to be evolved and perfected by rigorous and conscious effort.
2. There are certain conditions which are absolutely necessary for the successful functioning of democratic government. One is a written constitution. A constitution implies a rule of law rather than of men. It curbs despotic tendencies of rulers and safeguards the rights of the people. It ensures that no arbitrariness in governing people and members belonging to different groups are given an equal treatment.
3. The absence of militarism is another requirement of for the success of democracy. Democracy rules out the use of force. It is based on the recognition of the worth of man as man, implying the widest possible opportunity of development to everyone.
4. Democracy presumes social equality. Disparities in wealth are a great threat to democracy. A country in which a large number of people remain in abject poverty while a handful of them have plenty to spare cannot run efficient democratic institution. Similarly communalism, regionalism, caste and class distinctions wreck a democracy.
5. Democracy requires not merely an absence of ignorance, but also that the citizens are adequately educated. If knowledge remains scanty fragmentary and confined to narrow circles, there can be no prospect for the success of democracy. Bring scientific knowledge to the doors of all to universalize culture, to train the mind and to create the Socratic temper. Education makes citizens vigilant and bold to criticize ill conceived or harmful government measures. In fact education produces wise leadership and an enlightened and alert public.
