Problems of Democracy- Lack of Mutual Trust and Tolerance

Mutual trust and tolerance between government and oppositions are two binding principles essential for the proper functioning of democracy in a country. Government has to learn to live with oppositions and criticism and by confronting hostile situation in an understanding manner. Unfortunately, the concept of tolerance seems to be disappearing particularly for those in power. The leaders and party members become intolerant of the opposition and easily irritated by the criticism. Gradually they become paranoid and imagine that the opposition parties and other professional groups have become their adversary.
