The correct option is A Preference to a particular religion

Democracy in modern usage is a system of government in which the citizens exercise power directly or elect representatives from among themselves to form a governing body, such as a parliament. Democracy is sometimes referred to as rule of the majority. It does not discriminate people between caste, creed, sex, religion etc.

An important characteristic of democracy is that it grants top civil liberties to the citizens. They enjoy freedoms of speech, expression, and information. Citizens have a right to form or join an association. It includes the right to form a political party.
