Detailed Solution

The above statement is false. Democracy does not lead to the disintegration of society based on social divisions. Democracy is a good way in which social differences can be accommodated in society. However, in democracies, due to political competition between parties, social divisions come into the field, but still, a democratic government focuses on ensuring equality and eradicating discrimination against anyone. It takes care of a person’s dignity and freedom and thus works to minimise divisions within society. The reason democracies focus on the people of a country is because they are the very creation of their citizens. They owe it to the citizens to not promote policies, laws, or issues that could lead to social division.
