True or False: The role of opposition parties is to violently oppose government proposals.

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

Opposition parties do not have the role of violently opposing government proposals. They are responsible for providing alternative policies and scrutinizing the actions of the ruling party. While they may strongly disagree with government proposals, it is not their role to use violence to oppose them. This statement also goes against the principles of democracy, where peaceful and democratic means are used to express disagreement and bring about change. Therefore, option A is incorrect. Option B is the correct answer as it accurately describes the role of opposition parties.
