Answer 2

Answer:

In democracy people choose their leaders so that they can exercise power responsibly on their behalf. But there is always the possibility that these leaders might misuse their authority as per their wish which cannot be allowed in democracy. This misuse of authority can result in gross injustice and breakdown of democratic system.

Hence as a safeguard against the misuse of power by our political leaders it is necessary to have restriction on their power.
