Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Democracy supports the principles of freedom and equality for everyone. However, the majority does not always mean majority based on factors like caste, birth, or others. When a group or individual is in the majority, they occasionally have an opportunity to be in the minority. That doesn't mean he can do anything he wants; Rather, it should co-exist peacefully with minorities. If the majority becomes extremist regarding birth, caste, etc., the majority will seek political supremacy, while the minority will feel alienated. Finally, it results in the division of the nation.
The correct statement would be that it is also necessary to respect minority voices.
