An accountable government means people have the right to elect the leaders to form a government, and if possible, they also participate in the decision-making process. The government is responsible and answerable to its citizens for its actions. The people have the power to ask and protest against any decision by the government. The opposition party in a democracy also acts as the voice of the people against government decisions through its MPs and MLAs in parliament.
