Answers
Answer:
Democracy (Greek: δημοκρατία, dēmokratiā, from dēmos 'people' and kratos 'rule') is a form of government in which the people have the authority to choose their governing legislation. Who people are and how authority is shared among them are core issues for democratic theory, development and constitution.
India opts for representative democracy due to the waste of the country in terms of geography, history, and language. Explanation: It has a large population figure that makes it difficult for the direct government, resources needed in direct government are not at all feasible for a developing country such as India.
Answer:
Democracy is a government of the people, by the people and for the people. In a democracy, the leaders are elected by the people for the benefit of the people.
India opt from representative democracy because:
1. It has a large population
2. So many people cannot sit together to make a decision as it would take a very long time.
3. Not everyone among this large population have the skill, desire or time for politics.
4. Representative democracy is used where there is a large population and direct democracy is used where there is less population.
