India is a democratic country where the government is elected by the people and runs with the consent of the people. Democracy improves decision making and provides a method to deal with differences and conflicts while also enhancing citizens' dignity. Rights are fundamental to democracy's survival as they allow people to make claims over society and government. The judiciary aims to protect constitutional values while bureaucracy serves the legislature, but corruption in these systems undermines democracy. For true democracy, all citizens must have equal access to information, education, and resources.
