(i) Unstable government Lots of political parties are allowed to criticise the government and its policies. Sometimes, it leads to the downfall of the ruling party and re-elections in the country. This gives instability to the government.
(ii) Slow and inefficient government The most common demerit of democracy is that, it is slow in its functioning. The decision-making process involves long debates and deliberations in the Parliament. This takes a lot of time before the decisions are actually taken.
(iii) Incompetence Democracy gives every individual the right to voice his concern. As a result, everybody focusses on his personal interests and not the -
collective interests. This sometimes leads to incompetent and wrong selections of the candidates in the government.
(iv) Role of money in a democracy Money plays an important role at the time of the elections. A lot of money is needed to organise demonstrations, public meetings and speeches. Those candidates are chosen in the elections, who can raise lot of money for the party.
(v) There is a chance for full spread and evergreen corruption. A democratic leader is in position for a period. So there is a tendency to make money by use of power. Once he loses his power, he can live in a different country and evade the laws of the country. Hence it is easy for industries and companies to invest and get undue benefits from other nations by bribing that state leader. This is so common that dozens of U.S companies face bribery allegations.bio
(vi) There is not protection for the common man as the leaders itself try to misuse or misbehave in public. Even security personnel and police treat the injustice differently. They favor those in power or wealthy and neglect or even cause trouble to those who are sick or weak socially.
(vii) The leaders try to play divide and rule games. They, divide the people based on religion, caste, languages, etc. and try to gain votes to get power though there are not worthy to rule the state or country.
(viii) They encourage unfair trade practices to get support for election campaigns. This we can see as most politicians support rich people in return for monetary benefits like party funds etc.
(ix) The sole motto of the politicians is to get into power and cling to it. There are very few leaders who work for the benefit of the country. Democracy is meant to elect one who is eligible and has sufficient experience to rule and lead the nation forward. But parties compete for power without even having right candidate for the post. 
(x) Ignorance of the masses is taken for a ride. Freedom means anyone can be elected by masses to rule. But we can see there are also dynastic rules. Grand parents and grand children of the same family are positioned for power. This can be viewed in few countries. This is because they exploit the masses emotionally.
(xi) In dictatorial and communal rules you can notice, journalists cry for their freedom and rights. But in democracy, media try to fool the people such that they can influence the voting behavior. In many countries, media channels work for some or other party. They even have no value for the nation prospects. They even make news which can be problematic to the countries security. Their goal will be just to portray one leader as bad and other as the right to favor their choice of election results. This is possible because few political parties or leaders control the media.
(xii) Democracy is one where in there is a delay in justice. You can notice that in kings rule, the punishments are not only severe but very fast after the crime. But in democracy, the punishment can be declared after all those involved in the case become old or even die. So freedom can seem to more evil.
(xiii) Not all people participate in voting. They do not utilize their right to vote due to lack interest or laziness. Sometimes, they also do not vote if the candidate of interest is not available. In recent US elections, the black Americans did not vote as they did not have a candidate of interest. In the previous elections, they voted for Obama who was not white.
