Democracy is a form of government in which all citizen of the country participate equally either directly or through representatives (Indirectly) in the proposal, development and establishment of the laws by which society is run. And if the Democracy is not work for welfare of society, unable to enforce law and unsuccessful to protect rights of citizen that called inefficient democracy.
U.S. president Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) defined democracy as “of the people, by the people, for the people”
Rousseau expresses Monarchy is tremendously efficient, since all power rests in the hands of one man. However, this can be dangerous but other hand Mill feels that democracy constitutes progress, in that democracy provides for freedom, which in turn leads to liberty.

In my opinion inefficient Democracy is better than Benevolent Dictatorships. We have very few example of benevolent dictatorship in the world but other hand most of country in the world following democracy form of government and many country process to adopt dictatorship to Democracy form of government.
We have burning example of Nepal “Shah Dynasty “Nara Bhupal Shah and his succession king know as benevolent dictatorship and what happen. “ p1 Crown Prince Dipendra went on a shooting spree
