Detailed Solution

Democracies need to ensure Majority rule.
The majority rule is the odd one out when it comes to assessing democracy because democracy does not and must not ensure majority rule. What it means is simply that, because a particular community or group of people is in the majority in a country, it does not mean that the government so formed belongs to that community or group itself. Democracy means a government that is formed by the people, for the people and is responsible to the people. There is no majority rule, there is people’s rule in a democracy.
