Answer» SecularisminIndiameans equal treatment of all religions by the state. With the42nd Amendmentof theConstitution of Indiaenacted in 1976,the Preamble to the Constitution asserted that India is a secular nation. However, neither India's constitution nor its laws define the relationship between religion and state. The laws implicitly require the state and its institutions to recognise and accept all religions, enforce parliamentary laws instead of religious laws, and respect pluralism. |
