Solution

The correct option is C Punishment
One of the key ideas of a democratic government is its commitment to equality and justice. Equality and justice are inseparable. People's participation is one of the foundations for the establishment of a democracy. However, punishing someone is not a key element of a democratic government. Punishment exists but the crime has to be proved. In other words, punishment cannot be used to instill fear in individuals residing in a democratic country.
