Are the following statements in keeping with democracy as a value? Why? 

(a) Father to daughter: I don’t want to hear your opinion about your marriage. In our family children marry where the parents tell them to.

(b) Teacher to student: Don’t disturb my concentration by asking me questions in the classroom.

(c) Employee to the officer: Our working hours must be reduced according to the law.

(a) In this case, the daughter does not have the freedom of choice, hence this is undemocratic.

(b) The teacher may be involved in thinking about an important topic and hence is asking the student not to disturb her. It cannot be said with surety whether the teacher’s request is democratic or not.

(c) The employee is asking for a fundamental right and hence it is democratic.
