In India, people follow different religions. Therefore, India remained neutral in matters of religion and chose to be a secular country. A secular state or a country is one that does not establish any one religion as official religion. 
Following constitutional provisions declare India to be a secular state: 
(i) The Constitution provides to all its citizens the freedom to profess, practice and propagate any religion of their choice. 
(ii) There is no official religion for India. Unlike Sri Lanka where Buddhism is the state religion, Islam in Pakistan and Christianity in England, our Constitution does not provide any special status to any religion. 
(iii) The Constitution prohibits discrimination on grounds of religion.

The Indian Constitution can be amended in various ways.One of the process of amendment is a rigid one. The amendment in this article is done by the 2/3rd majority. In India, where the country is so politically divided, it is rather very difficult to bring about an 2/3rd majority. Hence the constitutions in such a framework seems to be rather rigid.

But not every part of the constitution is amended through constitutional amendment under Article 368.Certain ordinary laws can be easily amended (such as the local laws of the district), hence, making the constitution highly flexible.

Techniques for improved soil conservation include crop rotation, cover crops, conservation tillage and planted windbreaks, affect both erosion and fertility. When plants die, they decay and become part of the soil. ... Political and economic action is further required to solve the erosion problem.

Types of conservation measures:

• Agronomic: such as plant / soil cover, conservation farming methods, contour farming.
• Vegetative: such as planting barriers (vegetative strips), live fences, windbreaks.
• Structural: such as Fanya Juus, terraces, banks, bunds, cut off drains, barriers.

Groundwater is the water present beneathEarth's surface in soil pore spaces and in thefractures of rock formations. A unit of rock or an unconsolidated deposit is called an aquiferwhen it can yield a usable quantity of water. The depth at which soil pore spaces or fractures and voids in rock become completely saturated with water is called thewater table. Groundwater is recharged from, and eventually flows to, the surface naturally; natural discharge often occurs at springs andseeps, and can form oases or wetlands. Groundwater is also often withdrawn foragricultural, municipal, and industrial use by constructing and operating extraction wells. The study of the distribution and movement of groundwater is hydrogeology, also called groundwater hydrology.
