      Why do we call India a secular, democratic republic? Explain.

    Answer:

      India is called a secular state because its citizens have complete freedom to follow and practice any religion of their choice. There is no state religion in India, like Islam in Pakistan. Democracy means India has a government which is formed by elected representatives of the citizens on the basis of universal adult franchisc. India is a republic because the constitution of India states that there should be a head of the state, Rastrapati or the Presider to is elected for a term of five years and the post is not hereditary.                                 (3)
