(i) There is no official religion for the Indian states, unlike the status of Buddhism in Sri Lanka,or that of Islam in Pakistan.
(ii) The constitution provides freedom to all to protest, practice and propagate any religion, or not to follow any.
(iii) The constitution prohibits discrimination on grounds of religion.
(iv) The constitution allows state to intervene in the matters of religion in order to ensure equality within religious communities. For example, it bans untouchability.
