    Sure, it's a TRUE statement

    Explanation:

    This is call Contract Theory of Government or just Social Contract. If it's a contract, both sides must follow its terms unconditionally. According to Locke, who was adept at Liberalism and the idea that the State should interfere the least possible if the State did not follow its duties, the people had the right to take it down. This is call the Right of Revolution.
