here is your answer mate

n terms of religions of India with significant populations, only Islam has religious laws in form of sharia which India allows as Muslim Personal Law. Secularism in India, thus, does not mean separation of religion from state. Instead, secularism in India means a state that is neutral to all religious groups.

Answer:

Secularism in India is practised in the following manner:

a. Indian Secularism is based on the principle of Equal respect for all religions, where State respects every religious community and their sentiments.

b. It guarantees right to freedom of religion to all, allows everyone to freely practise, profess and propagate one's religious beliefs .

c. The state does not favour any particular religion, nor it promotes any particular religion.

d. Indian secularism practises an attitude of a principled and equal distance from all religions.

e. The State will not interfere in the religious practises of any religion. For example, Sikhs are allowed to wear Turbans, which is their religious symbol.

f. However, this does not mean that our principle of Secularism is absolute, State practises principled distance where it can initiate state sponsored reform , to deal with certain religious practises which are discriminatory and unjust, like caste.

g. Government for instance has abolished sati, untouchability for the purpose of reforming Hindu religion. Any interference by the State in religion is to be based on the ideals laid down in the constitution.
