Which step need to be taken to eradicte communalisam
Answers
Explanation:
1. Abolition of Communal Parties in our Country:
In our country, the political parties are mainly responsible for promoting communalism under the veil of various religious and cultural organisations. The Government should keep a vigilant eye on them and, if found detrimental to the interest of the nation, should abolish them.
2. Transmission of the Past Heritage:
Attempts should be made to remind the countrymen those glorious moments of history in which the Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs were combined to safeguard the interest of the nation. This will inspire our countrymen with nationalist zeal.
3. Healthy Public Opinion:
People should be appealed through mass media for changing their attitude towards other communities. Communal propaganda in any form should be banned.
4. Inter-religious marriage:
In order to have close contact among various communities, youth organisations should be formed in every locality in which young people belonging to different communities can get a scope to come in contact with each other and work together in different developmental programmes. That apart associations of other kinds may also be constituted to give opportunity to people of every community to come closer and know each other. This may help them to practise inter-religious marriages. Inter-religious marriages will lessen the social distance among the members of different religious groups.
5. Declaration of National Festivals:
The most widely observed festivals of every community should be declared as national festivals, as a result of which members of every religious group will have a chance to take part and have mutual contact and thereby communal harmony can be promoted. Notwithstanding the different methods of eradication or mitigation of communal conflict, what is really needed is a concerted effort of both, the government as well as the people. The combined effort of the institutional as well as attitudinal change can only bring the desired result.
