Answer 1

The correct option is B When familial ties are given preference over the ability to function in a democratic system.

Familial ties are given preference over the ability to function in a democratic system. It would deny opportunities to common party workers, and the people who have no experience or popular support occupy positions of power. Dynastic politics is not restricted to India. It is present in almost all democracies, including the older ones like the USA and UK.
