Answer 1

Answer:

Solution

a)Yes, this country is definitely a democracy.

As per the principle of Universal Adult Franchise, everyone should have one vote and equal value should be given to each and every vote.

Without a strong reason no one can be denied their right to vote. It is important for democracy.

People vary from each other, some may be unkind or kind, some may be illiterate or highly educated, some may be poor or rich; but all of them are human beings and they are entitled to their views and needs.

As the result of elections will impact everyone, all the citizens deserve the right to vote.

In India, regardless of the gender, religion, caste; all the citizens above the age of 18 years have the right to vote.

b) No, this country cannot be considered as democratic.

The Governments are elected by the citizens of the country and not by international agencies.

The Governments are accountable to the people, it is their primary duty to bring upliftment of people through education and the health sector.

c) No, the country is not democratic.

The different languages and cultures need to be respected. One language cannot be promoted at the expense of the other languages.

d) Yes, action of people is democratic but actions of Government is not democratic.

The citizens have every right to peacefully assemble and protest against the policies of the Government.

If the protesting people are not violent and if they are protesting peacefully without disrupting the public, then Government should not arrest the leaders, instead they should be called for talks and resolve the issue
