Question

What are the various ways through which people express their dissatisfaction with any of the government's decisions which do not go in their favour?

Answer 1

Hint: In a democracy people have the right to display their dissatisfaction with the policies or actions of the government in various ways. The electoral process empowers the people to bring down the governments that do not work in their favour and consequently allows them to elect a new government

Complete answer:
People can express their dissatisfaction with any of the government's decisions that do not go in their favour in the following ways :
1. Writing letters to the minister (local, state-level or national level) who have rolled out that decision - All the elected parliamentarians are public servants thus they can be directly approached through official letters to show their dissatisfaction.
2. Public protests - Public protests can be organised. It is a demonstration by a group of people (small/large) on the streets in order to bring attention to their issues. Such protests are usually carried out around public properties or the property of the organiser.
3. Signature campaign - Signatures of many people are collected to reform or repeal a law that does not favour the citizens.
4. Ask the government to rethink etc.

Note:
Media has an important role in channelising the griefs and issues of the public. It brings the issue to a larger scale. It effectively brings public concern to the attention of the government. This can help more people to join a cause that they did not know of in the first place. This can be only achieved through unbiased media.
