Answer:
In
our society every individual wants to receive respect from fellow beings. In
this respect, democratic form of government stands much superior to any other
form of government in promoting dignity and freedom of the individual.
(i) Often conflict arises among
individuals because some feel that they are not treated with equal respect in comparison
to others. It is very common in non-democratic countries. But in democracy
respect and freedom are the basis of it. Democracy throughout the world has
recognised this atleast in principle.
(ii) Most societies were historically male dominating. The status of
women was not satisfactory. After long struggles by women, democracy throughout
the world has recognised equal treatment and respect to women atleast in
principle. Thus in democracy, it becomes easier for women to wage a struggle
against what is now unacceptable legally and morally for them.
(iii) Democracy in India has strengthened the claims of
the disadvantaged and discriminated castes for equal status and opportunity,
which is not possible in any non- democratic country.
