Detailed Solution

The assertion and the reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
A democratic government governs within the bounds established by the constitution in the following ways: A democratic government cannot ignore the views, thoughts, opinions, and ideas of its citizens; the citizens have a voice. If the people are displeased with their monarch or leader, they can replace him. Consequently, no political party has lasting authority in a democracy. Representatives of leaders elected by the people serve their interests exclusively. In a democracy, governing officials are elected by the populace. Democracy is a system of administration in which all significant decisions are made by rulers chosen by the people. People have a choice and a fair opportunity to alter their rulers through elections. This option and chance are equally accessible to all individuals. The use of this option results in a government constrained by constitutional and civil rights.
