Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
In a democracy, the people themselves hold the reins of power. For a democracy to function successfully, free and fair elections are required. Democracy places a lot of importance on public opinion. A dictatorship is a form of government in which one person has absolute power. Elections are not necessary under a dictatorship. Public sentiment is not taken into account. Therefore, it is reasonable to anticipate democracy to result in a government that adheres to rules and is answerable to the people when we are seeking to determine the outcomes of democracy. Democratic democracy is undoubtedly superior to its alternatives in one key area: it is a valid form of government.
The correct statement is free and fair elections are conducted in a democratic government.
