  Government has not made any provision for drinking water in some villages in remote areas. The villagers of a particular remote area decided to pay some money to the government officials to get water to their villages. Was this a democratic method?

Answer:

                  No, this was not a democratic method. They could have organised public meetings against government's policies, filed a case in the courts claiming that water is part of the right to life, or even boycotted the next elections to give a message to all parties, which are all democratic methods.
