Detailed Solution

The given statement is false. Where democratic forms of government have brought social equality through reservation, rights and freedoms and different policies, economic inequality has grown tremendously in a democratic form of government. There is a massive gap between the rich and the poor in a democracy. A small group of ultra-rich people enjoy all forms of luxury, while a significant population suffers from hunger and malnutrition. They are not even able to get necessities such as clothing, housing and water etc. however, the governments, even in a democracy, do not seem to care much about eradicating poverty and even when they try a little, corruption makes it much more difficult. So, it can not be said that democracies help reduce economic inequalities.
The correct statement is that the democratic government does not help reduce economic inequalities.
