Answer 1

COMMUNAL HARMONY  

Communal Harmony is necessary for every nation. Only if there is peace and harmony in the country can it grow. India is known to maintain communal harmony even as people of different religions and castes reside here. It is known for its secular ways. The state does not follow any official religion. It gives its citizens the freedom to choose their religion and change it at any time. Strict action is taken against individuals or groups who try to tamper with the communal harmony of the country.

Disruption of Communal Harmony

Communal Harmony has been disrupted several times in our country. Riots between different religious groups have been common. Mentioned below are some of the instances of communal harmony:

Parsee-Muslim Riots 1851

These protests were done against by Muslims against a Parsee-owned publication Chitra Dynan Darpan.

Parsee-Muslim Riots 1874

These riots broke out because of the publishing of Prophet Mohammed in Famous Prophets and Communities by Rustomji Hormusji Jalbhoy.

Salem Riots 1882

These riots supposedly occurred as the Hindus showed resentment against the construction of a mosque on the path of a Hindu religious procession.

1989 Meerut Communal Riots

These Hindu-Muslim riots continued for 3 months and approximately 350 people were killed during these.

2013 Gujarat Riots

These riots took place between the Bengali Muslims and Bengali Hindus in West Bengal in February 2013.

Apart from these, the 1927 Nagpur Riots, 1967 Ranchi-Hatia Riots, 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots, 1989 Meerut Communal Riots, 1990 Hyderabad Riots, 1992 Bombay Riots, 2002 Gujarat Riots and 2013 Muzaffarnagar Riots also disrupted communal harmony majorly.

Conclusion

The Constitution of the country has enforced laws to ensure communal harmony in the country and the government is taking all the necessary measures to ensure the same. Unfortunately, there have still been several instances that have hampered the communal harmony in the country.
