Discuss different considerations about religion and politics.

Gandhiji said that religion and politics could never be separated. He meant that the people who are involved in politics must be guided by their respective religion ethics.

Politics is to help the common people in taking their demands to the government. The demands would never be common because India is a diverse country where different religions exist, and they pursue different lifestyles, so their demands are also different. Also, while fulfilling one’s demand, it must be taken care of that the rights of other religions are not violated.

Hence political activities to regulate religious affairs are acceptable if it treats every religion equally.
