Question

The Indian State both keeps away from religion as well as intervenes in religion’. What do you understand by this statement? Give examples to explain it.

Answer 1

• The Indian state only intervenes if some wrong religious or superstition creates problem for children (infanticide) or for women (sati) for lower castes. If the people of the same religion i.e. the Hindus are denied the right to enter a place of worship then the state can intervene.
