Crowd funding deals with mobilisation of funds for a project from a large number of people, who would be willing to invest smaller amounts through web-based platforms in the project. Based on the above paragraph, which of the following is correct about crowd funding? Correct Answer Funds raised through voluntary contributions on web-based platforms

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. ​Funds raised through voluntary contributions on web-based platforms.

After reading the above paragraph one can easily comprehend that a large number of people voluntarily (proceeding from the will or from one's own choice or consent) invested in small amounts for the crowd-funding, now let's go through each option one by one.

  • Option 1 states that- "Funds raised through unwilling contributions on web-based platforms.", this option is incorrect because the contribution was made willingly in small amounts by a large number of peoples.
  • Option 2 states that- "Funds raised through large contributions on web-based platforms.", this option is incorrect, it has been clearly mentioned in the passage that a large number of people invest small amounts. (Large contributions are mentioned nowhere in the paragraph)
  • Option 3 states that- "Funds raised through coerced contributions on web-based platforms.", Coerced means to compel to an act or choice or to achieve by force or threat, people were not forced to make a contribution in this crowd-funding they willingly invested small amounts. Hence, this option is incorrect as well.

Public opinion may be passive and false or active and real. It is claimed in theory that all governments are ultimately based on the opinion or sanction of the governed. But we find that in practice the people's rights are often trodden down and tyranny and oppression are allowed to continue. The government does it not because the people want it to do so but because they are too idle, too uneducated and too disunited or timid to oppose the govern ment. Such public opinion is passive and false and not an active verdict. But when we find people alert, intelligent and determined to let the government know their will, when they want to exercise actively their voice in the management of their country, we have an instance of true or active public opinion. True public opinion is formed by and expressed through the press, the platform, political parties and educational institutions. These have sacred duties to perform, duties on which depends the ultimate good of the entire community. The press today wields a tremendous influence, So it should support the causes and move ments and condemn the wrong one's and thus teach people to form correct opinion. A free and fair press ventilates the grievances of the public. Thus a healthy relationship develops between the people and the government through out an unbiased press. Political parties also help to create and regulate opinions. No less important part is played by the educational Institutions which train the minds of the young people who will be the citizens of tomorrow. It has been said that modern Germany and China have been made by their universities. It is necessary that the young and the growing minds should imbibe the spirit of fellow-feeling, the spirit of tolerance, the habit of compromise, and show due regard for the feelings and opinion of others without which a democratic society cannot function, let alone succeed. When there is true awakening of the people, we shall have the real and conscious public opinion. And justice will reign on earth and truly will the voice of the people be the voice of God.
