Major decisions by elected leaders

This Class 9 Civics topic explores how elected leaders make major decisions in a democracy and why those decisions must follow constitutional rules, public procedures, and institutional checks. Students examine the roles of elected representatives, the executive, the legislature, and other democratic institutions, while considering how decisions are discussed, implemented, and held accountable. It connects these ideas to the chapter “What is Democracy? Why Democracy?” and shows how democratic decision-making differs from rule by unelected authorities.
