The system by which a state or community is governed is called the government. Five ways in which the government affects our daily life are as follows:
1. Government ensures proper supply of drinking water.
2. Government ensures proper supply of electricity.
3. Government makes schools so that most of the children can study. The government also regulates the functioning of private schools.
4. Government makes hospitals which treat patients either free of cost or at nominal cost.
5. In case of natural calamity, government provides relief to affected people.
