Answer

Democracy is the most popular form of government as it allows people to participate in the process of electing their leaders, who run the country in their name. This right to choose gives people a sense of power which garners great support for democracy .  The system in itself is such that it is preferred by the masses over other forms of rule like dictatorship or military rule. Some other features of democracy that make it generate support for itself are given below:

  • Accountability : it produces a government that is accountable to the citizens, and responsive to the needs and expectations of the citizens.
  • Transparency : . People have the right and the means to examine the process of decision making. This is known as transparency. This factor is often missing from a non-democratic government.
