It is the responsibility of a secular state to maintain a neutral stance towards the beliefs of its citizens and to guarantee that every person is able to exercise their right to religious liberty in their personal life. In practice, however, the nature and character of secularism shift depending on the setting in which it is practiced. Due to the fact that India is a largely Hindu nation that is profoundly religious, it has its own unique flavor of secularism. There is problematic proof of hostile to strict aims and the noticeable quality of Hinduism in the Constitution of India. From one viewpoint, the Constitution of India ensures individual flexibilities and announces the state to be mainstream. In view of this vulnerability, there is space for the advancement of Hindutva to be performed dishonestly. As populism and elite patriotism seem to rule the political front locally in India and various different countries across the world, it becomes unrealistic, in the event that certainly feasible, for secularism to assume control over religion as the predominant worldview of life in India. This is on the grounds that India is as of now encountering a time of political insecurity
