The above statement is True.
Reasons:
i. In democracy, there is direct representation of the Indian people in the Parliament, State legislature and local government.
ii. Free and fair elections are held at regular intervals in democracy. Everyone has the right to vote irrespective of religion, gender, caste, etc.
iii. Earlier the voting age was 21 years. It was later reduced to 18 years. This lowering of voting age led to an increased participation of younger generation in the political process. Today, India has the largest number of voters compared to any other democratic nation.
Therefore, Indian democracy is considered as the largest democracy in the world.
