Solution

The correct option is D QSRP
Q presents an idea that is in contrasts to S1 and S states what happens in Q (use of force) doesn't happen in a democracy. So, Q must follow S1 and S must follow Q. R further explains the idea introduced in S and so must follow S and P is the best connection between the rest and S6. So the correct sequence is option D.
