democracy is the best form of government because in democracy government is selected by common people. If the government is not doing right decision and maintenance of country then public will reject them.
hope it will help you.

It’s not - representative democracy is the worst form of government other than all the others that have been tried. Democracies are much more shortsighted than dictatorships are at their best (although there is precious little more shortsighted than a dictatorship at its worst) but they have several fundamental advantages, with many of them to do with stability:
Orderly transition of power - with a democracy there is always a good way of finding out who the next head of state will be. You never have a civil war because a head of state died without a child and there are two claimants to the throne.
Leaders expected to step down voluntarily - in most forms of dictatorship the only way to change the head of state is to kill them and no one else gets to be the ruler until then. This leads to a lot of problems with either very old or very young or just out of touch rulers (and is related to orderly transitions of power).
Bringing the opposition into the system - in most systems of government if your group doesn’t have power the only way to get power is to revolt. In a democracy you just need to win an election and this is a lot safer than an armed revolt, especially for the losing side. So everyone has a chance and they know that if they ally their interests with those of enough others they can be listened to.
Legitimacy. Everyone hates an illegitmate government - why should those &%S$s tell me what to do? The best anyone has come up with is that legitimacy derives from the consent of the governed. (Second place may actually be “Divine right of kings” or “Kings are divine” or some variation of the theme).
Limited Filter Bubbles - this may sound ironic in today’s climate, but democracy is the form of government least prone to filter bubbles. A good representative representing thousands or tens of thousands needs to talk to their constituents to be re-elected, while if all the politicking is done wherever the seat of government is then you don’t need to break the filter bubble of wherever that seat of government is. (Note: with the smallest Congressional district in America being over half a million and the setup of the Presidential election leading to a two party state this link may well have been broken in America).
There are things democracy is pretty poor at - and planning for the long term is one of them because the government changes on such a regular basis and is frequently thinking no further ahead than that. But in terms of survival without civil wars democracies are very very stable.
