Question

On the basis of which values will it be a fair expectation that democracy should produce a harmonious social life? Explain.

Answer 1

1) A democratic country looks into the needs and aspirations of every section of society.

2) It is also able to handle social conflicts, divisions and differences.

3) Accommodating the demands of the underprivileged, the backward sections of the society and the minority communities through democratic principles, helps in building a more inclusive and a harmonious society.

4) Thus, on the basis of social accommodation and respecting each other’s cultures and freedom—a major feature of democracy, it is a fair expectation that a democratic country should produce a harmonious social life.
