Solution 1
This statement is true.
Reason:
Political parties act as a link between the government and the people. They communicate the demands and the complaints of the people to their elected representatives in the government. The government, on the other hand, tries to get the support of the people for its policies through the political parties.
Solution 2
This statement is true.
Reasons:
- Sometimes, for an ordinary citizen, it is easier to approach a local party leader than a government officer. Hence, parties communicate the demands and complaints of the people to the government.
- The government also tries to get the support of people for its programs and policies through political parties.
Therefore, it is rightly said that political parties act as a link between the government and the people.
