True
B
False

Solution:

The above statement is true. Popular struggles and movements are integral to the development of democracy. For example, the movement in Nepal for the restoration of Democracy and Bolivia’s water war against privatisation helped save democracy in these countries. With struggles and movements, diverse groups and communities in society can express their feelings. People often rise in protests or lead struggles and movements when people disagree with some of the government policies or their actions or decisions. The movements influence decision-making and keep the government in check. This way, they are integral to democracy.
