Ramesh was not in class when this chapter was being taught. He came the next day and reported what he had heard from his father. Can you tell Ramesh what is wrong with these statement Party politics creates tension in society. Elections should be decided by consensus not by competition.

Ramesh, the statement suggesting “Elections should be based on consensus, not competition due to tensions caused by party politics,” has limitations. While consensus is desirable, competition among parties is fundamental in democracy. It ensures representation of diverse views and fosters accountability. Competition encourages debates, transparency, and choice among citizens, vital for a healthy democratic process. It’s not party politics itself but the manner in which it operates that determines its impact on societal harmony.
