In my opinion, democracy can be considered to be the best form of government. In a democracy, the supreme power is vested in the people and they enjoy many important rights. Regardless of their political affiliations and economical status, people have right to the freedom of speech, practice their own beliefs, join organizations of their own choice and also assemble and protect against government decisions. In the eyes of law, everyone is equal and there is no room for any sort of discrimination. The system of governance is more transparent which ensures that basic human rights are protected. People have the power to elect their representatives who, on their behalf, can push for the necessary changes in the policies that affect social, environmental, and economical interests of the individuals. In other words, governments work with consensus and people are involved in decision making as opposed to Monarchy or Dictatorship where they have no say at all.
