Indian secularism focuses on more than the religion-state separation. Explain.


Indian secularism does not solely focus on the separation of religion-state but it is also concerned with maintain peace and order between different religious groups and practices. In India, secularism has been established as the leading doctrine that opposes all forms of inter-religious domination. In a religious and culturally diversified country like India secularism works as the unifying force. Indian secularism promotes freedom and equality within all religion and on the same time keeps a check on its activities which might be harmful for the state of one’s dignity and protect the civil and social rights of the citizens. Therefore, state does not have a constant interference in the religious matter but it keeps a check and record of its influence on public life and interferes when required to maintain order and harmony.
