Why is the concept of limited government developed in the democratic countries

Total government control over the people is not democratic. By government limiting itself in many respects, that gives room for the people to be heard. After all, the maintenance of all societies arise definitely for the most part from the fruits of the labor of the working class.

At the same time, though, total control of the government by the people can lead to a toxic amassing of corruption because we elect politicians through propaganda (TV ads, failure to research their voting records, etc.

So, a balance between government doing what the people want and need like universal healthcare and education, for instance and the people stepping up and addressing their concerns is a successful and ideal government.

A limited government if the people are heard, that is a good government.
