Q. Which of the following is true for Indian state working to prevent domination?

1. Distancing itself from religion.
2. Strategy of non-interference.

Select the correct answer from the codes given below:
Answer: Both 1 and 2
Notes: The Indian State works in various ways to prevent the domination. First, it uses a strategy of distancing itself from religion. The Indian State is not ruled by a religious group and nor does it support any one religion. In India, government spaces like law courts, police stations, government schools and offices are not supposed to display or promote any one religion. The second way in which Indian secularism works to prevent the above domination is through a strategy of non-interference. This means that in order to respect the sentiments of all religions and to not interfere with religious practices, the State makes certain exceptions for particular religious communities.
