India is a democratic country where the government is elected by the people and works with the consent of the people. Democracy means government by the people, for the people, and of the people. Democracy improves decision making, provides a method to deal with differences and conflicts, and enhances citizens' dignity. Rights are necessary in a democracy and include fundamental rights given special status in the Indian constitution. A judiciary aims to protect society and values while bureaucracy serves the legislature. However, corruption from selfishness, greed, and desires for more than individual rights has reached higher levels and undermines the constitution and rule of law. True democracy will exist when citizens have equal access to information, education, resources, and commitment beyond just equal voting rights.
