Question

In the context of assessing democracy which among the following is odd one.

• A. Equal status and opportunity for all the citizens.
• B. All individuals have equal rights in electing representatives.
• C. Democracy does not guarantee economic development of the poor.
• D. Democracy assures equal distribution of wealth to all the citizens of the country.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Democracy assures equal distribution of wealth to all the citizens of the country.

A democratic government is one that is elected by the citizens of the state. One of the essential features of democracy is that it enhances the dignity of citizens, by providing them equal status and opportunity to each one of them. All individuals have equal rights in electing representatives. It is one of the drawbacks of democracy that does not guarantee the economic development of the poor. The political leaders are ignorant about the problems of the poor.

Hence, the statement that democracy assures equal distribution of wealth to all the citizens of the country is false and also the odd one out.
