In the past, people were treated badly
because of their religion. 
They were discriminated against, hurt, and

They were discriminated against, hurt, and

This was very wrong and hurt a lot of
people.
Nowadays, we know that
treating people unfairly
because of their religion is
not okay. 
We want everyone to be
treated with respect and
kindness, no matter what
they believe in. 
That's where secularism
comes in.

Understanding Secularism
Secularism means keeping religion separate from the government. In
simple words, it's like keeping religion and the rules of the country in
different boxes.
In India, our constitution allows everyone to follow their own religion
freely.

In India, our constitution allows everyone to follow their own religion

In India, we believe in
secularism too. This means our
country doesn't favor any one
religion over others. Everyone is
treated equally, no matter what
religion they follow.
Our constitution says that the
government and religion should
stay separate. This way, people
can freely practice their religion
without any interference from
the government.
