Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
It is essential to realize that democracy is more complicated than just majority rule. To ensure that governments represent the dominant viewpoint, the majority must always cooperate with the minority. Both majority and minority views can change. Furthermore, it is essential to prevent majority rule from becoming a majority community regarding race, religion, linguistic group, etc. Rule by majority indicates that several individuals and groups may constitute a majority in any decision or election. Only when every person has a possibility of being in the majority at some point in time will democracy be democratic.
