Gandhi believed — The rule of majority does not mean that it should suppress the opinion of even an individual if it is sound. The opinion of an individual should have greater weight than the opinion of many, if that opinion is sound on merits. That is my view of real democracy.
“There
comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic,
nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.” ~
Martin Luther King Jr., (A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and
Speeches)
