Meaning of social democracy:
Roots of democracy are very strong in the society. If class struggle and inequalities are left to spread, then democracy cannot function properly. And therefore, it is quite necessary to develop equality, goodwill, brotherhood in the society, and then, of course, democracy can flourish. It is mandatory for the democracy to preserve the rights of minorities in the society, and hence, to provide social security.
There should be a ‘pledge’ to end social discrimination on the basic of caste, religion, colour, gender, etc. Democracy makes a great deal of efforts to provide security, to the interests of women in the society so that they can have equality similar to that of males. This is called social democracy.
