Religions come with a set of rules, that have to be observed by mankind. The same is linked to politics too. Many things that happen in the life of mankind is linked together, whether it is religion, politics or any thing else. Politics live on religion and religion live on politics. There is no need to isolate Indian politics on this. In many countries politics is only an extension of religion. In India, we accommodate many religion, under the label of secularism.

Of late it is seen, that extremism is seen in many religion and in its activities. It appear to be a revival of the mind-set of early historical periods. Immediately after independence, the nation focused on developmental activities, without linking religion to it. But now, the basic aim is drifting, and leaning towards religious activities too. We may have to introduce new rules to disconnect religion from governance.

Religion plays an important role in Indian Politics. Religion and Politics co-exists in India. Religion can guide a politician but a politician biased in favor of one religion, can never be good for all. A politician is the representative of the general people of India, and he use the spirit of religion to promote communal harmony.

In the present day world our earth is flooded with religious preachers, Hinduism, Christianity, Mohammedanism, Buddhism, Sikhism and the like all have millions of supporters to spread the inner meaning of then own issues which have given birth to different systems of faith and worship But basically all religions are the same and lead to the path of God. Since, religion has an important place in Politics, these religious preachers should guide their followers for communal harmony.

Religion, sometimes being falsely interpreted, may cause harm to men in the form of superstition. It sometimes breeds religious fanaticism and religious intolerance and hence is far away from the path of truth and God.

It is duty of politicians to remain unbiased and maintain communal harmony.
