Answer 2

Answer:

• India adopted a strategy of separating the power of religion and the power of the State.

• Secularism refers to this separation of religion from the State.

• The Indian Constitution allows individuals the freedom to live by their religious beliefs and practice it.

-The separation of the State and religion in democratic societies is important because of the following reasons:

• It helps a country to function democratically.

• The tyranny of the majority and the violation of Fundamental Rights can be very harmful to the people belonging to the minority. So, it protects people from any type of religious violence.

• It protects the freedom of individuals to exit from their religion, embrace another religion. It gave people the freedom to interpret religious teachings differently.

Explanation:

The Indian Constitution mandates that the Indian State be secular. Only a secular State can realise its objectives to ensure the following:

• One religious community does not dominate another.

• Some members do not dominate other members of the same religious community.

• The State does not enforce any particular religion nor does it take away the religious freedom of individuals.
