Why should a major decision not be taken arbitrarily by one person in a democracy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because decisions should be accountable and based on discussion

Correct answer: A — a major decision should be accountable and based on discussion. In a democracy, government decisions affect many people, so they should follow constitutional rules and be open to examination by elected representatives, institutions, and citizens. Discussion helps decision-makers hear different experiences, identify problems, and consider alternatives. Accountability means that those who take decisions must explain and defend them. A is correct because consultation and responsibility reduce arbitrary use of power. B is wrong: democracies do have governments, formed through constitutional processes. C is wrong because rumours are not a legitimate basis for public policy. D is wrong because citizens do vote and their elected representatives participate in governance. Memory cue: democracy means discussion, rules, and answerability—not one person’s unchecked choice.
