“Undemocratic practices” in governance refer to actions that undermine democratic principles such as free elections, political pluralism, and respect for human rights. Common manifestations include censorship of media, suppression of political opposition, gerrymandering, and voter suppression tactics. Additionally, practices like corruption, lack of transparency in government actions, and illegal detentions contribute to a climate where democratic norms are eroded. These practices obstruct public participation in governance and often lead to social unrest, as citizens grow frustrated with the lack of representation and accountability in their political systems.
