Western-Secularism

Indian-Secularism

In the West, the State is separate from the functioning of all religious institution and groups.  Secularism in India means that the state is neutral to all religious groups but not necessarily separate
The state believes in total non-interference of religion. The state is allowed to curtail the rights of citizens if the religion is causing hindrance in the functioning of the state. In India, the concept is not restricted to the question of how religious groups are to be treated. Instead, the essence of secularism lies in forging a positive relationship between the state and religion.
The Western concept of Secularism does not believe in an open display of religion with except for places of worship. In India, all expression of Religion is manifested equally with support from the state.
The distinction between state and religion is clear and set in stone Thre is no clear distinction between the state and religion in India.
