AIt avoids conflict between social groups
BIt is the spirit of democracy
CIt gives different groups a stake in the system

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. It always increases administrative cost
1. Power sharing has two main justifications: prudential and moral. 2. Prudential reasons include reduced conflict and stability. 3. Moral reasons relate to the very spirit of democracy. 4. Higher administrative cost is sometimes mentioned as a drawback but is NOT a reason it is desirable. 5. So the option that is not a reason is the cost claim. _Source: NCERT Class 10 Democratic Politics II Ch 1 'Power Sharing'_
