A written document in which we find such rules is called constitution. A democratic country needs a constitution because :- ★ It lays out the important guidelines that govern decision making within the various societies of the country. ★ It lays down the ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that its citizens aspire to live in. ★ It serves as an asset of rules and principles as the basis by which the country has to be governed ★ It provides rules to safeguard the interests of minorities and prevent any kind of domination by the majority on minorities. ★ It lays down rules that guard against the misuse of power by any politician leader. ★ It also provides rights to its citizens and protects their freedom.

In a democracy people choose their representatives and the leaders might misuse their powers. Constitution provides safeguards against this.
In a democracy, the constitution ensures that the dominant group does not use power against less powerful groups.
The constitution guarantees fundamental rights to the citizens for their social, economic, and political welfare.
