Secular State
Secular State
Secular State: A state which has no official religion of its own. The secular state provides religious equality and equal status to all religions. The makers of our Constitution were aware with the challenge of communalism. Thus, our Constitution maker adopted the model of secular state. This means
1. There is no official religion for the Indian states, i.e. unlike Sri Lanka (Buddhism), Pakistan (Islam) and England (Christianity).
2. All individuals and communities have the freedom to profess, practise and propagate any religion or not to follow any.
3. It prohibits discrimination on grounds of religion.
4. It allows the state to intervene in the matters of religion in order to ensure equality within religious communities, viz, it bans untouchability.
Idea of Secularism: Secularism treats all religious groups equally in the sense that no single religion will be favoured over the other in any form. This idea constitutes one of the basic foundations of our country. Secularism is very opposite to the communalism which threatens the very idea of India. Communalism cannot be combated only with a secular Constitution. Communal prejudice and propaganda need to be countered in everyday life.Freedom of religion in India is a fundamental right guaranteed by Article 25-28 of the Constitution of India. Modern India came into existence in 1947 and the Indian constitution's preamble was amended in 1976 to state that India is a secular state.
