There are two main types of democracies - representative democracy, where citizens elect representatives to make decisions on their behalf, and participatory democracy, which encourages wider citizen involvement in decision-making through assemblies. Democratic participation benefits citizens by allowing them to influence policies, check government power, and promote freedom and political education.

Democracy began in ancient Athens in 510 BC when soldiers chose leaders rather than having a monarchy. This early direct democracy had all citizens vote directly on laws. However, as populations grew, direct democracy became inefficient so representatives were elected in indirect democracy, as most democracies follow today. India adopted democracy due to its experience under colonial rule and to ensure unity among its diverse peoples, with features including federalism, parliamentary government, separation of powers, fundamental rights, and secularism.
Democratic rights notes pdf simple ,short and brief notes of democratic rights.gauriasawa9
Democratic rights are essential to democracy. Citizens must enjoy certain rights that are protected even from elected rulers. These rights include freedom of expression, equality before the law regardless of religion or gender, and protections against exploitation. Citizens can seek enforcement of these rights through the courts or by filing complaints with the National Human Rights Commission if they feel their rights have been violated. Over time, the scope of recognized democratic rights continues to expand in most countries.
Suffrage refers to the right of citizens to vote in public elections. There are several theories of suffrage: as a right of citizenship; a privilege of property owners; a natural right; a way to improve citizenship; or a function of government. Qualifications for suffrage typically include citizenship, residency, age, and literacy. Compulsory voting aims to broaden voter participation by requiring eligible citizens to vote, which could minimize corruption and give minority parties a more equal voice.
The document defines government as a group that has authority to set goals and policies for a country, make laws and regulations, and enforce compliance with those laws. It discusses forms of democratic government where citizens can participate directly or indirectly by voting for representatives. Key aspects of a democracy are outlined such as competing political parties, voting, freedom of speech and challenging government decisions in court. The types of authority and different forms of leadership are also summarized.
Democracy derives from the Greek words meaning "rule by the people." It is a system of government where supreme power is held by the citizens, either directly or through elected representatives. There are two main types of democracy - direct, where citizens vote on all issues, and representative, where citizens elect officials to vote on most issues. Democracies protect basic rights like freedom of speech and religion through regular free and fair elections. Citizens have both rights and responsibilities to participate in the political system. Key aspects of democracy include the rule of law, separation of powers among legislative, executive and judicial branches, and a free press. Political parties, interest groups and non-governmental organizations also play important roles.

core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
2. SUFFRAGE
It is the right to vote in elections
It is the expression of the sovereign
will of the people.

4. THEORIES IN
SUFFRAGE
The Natural Right Theory – this theory claims that
the right to vote is a natural and inherited right to
every citizen. The state was created by the people
deliberately and hence, all the people have a natural
right to take part in the affairs of the government.
The Legal Theory – this theory states that suffrage
not a natural right, but a political right granted by
the law of the state. Voting is a public function.
The Tribal Theory – in early Greek and Roman
suffrage was extended only to the citizen class. Only
people who were accorded citizenship status could
vote. Nowadays, citizenship s essential for voting.
5. THEORIES IN
SUFFRAGE
4. The Ethical Theory – it considers the
to vote as a means of self-expression of the
individual in the political affairs. Suffrage
provides for the development of the human
personality.
5. The Feudal Theory – this claims that the
right to vote depends on a particular social
status. The simplest form of social status
was ownership of land. Even now in some
states, the emphasis is on a property
qualification. This is a legacy of the old
theory.
25. Types of political parties
1. Left parties (far-left)
goal is the eventual destruction of existing class
hierarchies in society, by violence if necessary; call for
comprehensive government intervention in the economy to
redistribute wealth and guarantee welfare security to the
most vulnerable.
26. Types of political parties
2. Center left parties
differ from left by their equitable distribution of wealth
is still a societal goal that should be realized by proper state
intervention (with concurrence from the people)
27. Types of political parties
3. Center parties
believe in the value of self initiative and a minimal state
role on economy
28. Types of political parties
4 Center-right parties
believe that the task of the government is to provide
peace and order and to ensure the proper enforcement of
laws and legal contracts
29. Types of political parties
5 Right parties (far-right):
parties of ultra conservatism and exclusionism; believe
in “natural” differences among humans and that there are
some persons, races, religions, classes that are more fit to
rule than others
