Question

Vigilant citizens are a must for the successful working of a democracy. Comment.

Answer in Brief

Solution

  • Vigilant people are a must for the successful working of a democracy as vigilance creates awareness about the rights of citizens and government policies that affect daily life.

  • Awareness leads to discussion and debate on the issues that arise out of the implementation of policies.

  • Citizens can, thus, force the government to implement new policies or modify the existing policies and programmes of the country by building up and mobilising their opinion.

  • As democracy is about government of the citizens, by the citizens and for the citizens, vigilance of the citizens accelerates the successful working of a democracy.
