Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
In a democracy, people elect their representatives and give them the right to make decisions on their behalf. These representatives are selected for a fixed period of five years. This period is set for two purposes. One is to allow people to vote the representative out of office if they are dissatisfied with their performance. Two, to make decision-makers stay on their toes and not take their positions for granted. While these are how the people use elections to express their approval or disapproval of the government, there are other ways they used to do so. Even if elections are held, the people in a constituency or ward may refrain from voting to express their dissatisfaction.
