Secularism is something which rejects the whole idea of the rejection, the idea is basically not let the religion be involved in the public and private matters. In 1976 it was stated that India is a secular country because it rules and laws is free of religious beliefs.
west, however, looks like an island of secularism and it follows secularism widely, this term was first used by the British writer George Jacob in 1851, which presented the idea that basically the religion should be always separated from the religion while taking the important decisions religion should be kept separated.

In western democracies, religion and state administration are not inter-linked. Hence, in the running of the states, in debates and discussions, in day to day activities and so on people neither publicly propagate nor discriminate against religion; if they do, their acts could invite censure or punishment.
The constitutions of western democracies clearly spell out equal rights and privileges for all its citizens and this makes them free of religious influence or bias. In most situations, therefore, secularism is practised to the core and law abiding citizens from major communities stand up in defence of minorities whenever the latter's rights are violated.
