Q.1 What do you understand by the term secularism? Discuss how Indian concept of secularism is broader than western concept? (15 Marks)

Mentor’s Comments-

  • Introduction should have sound definition of secularism and its constitutional values.
  • Main body needs to list the Indian version of secularism and its associated values with respect to western concept of secularism.
  • Conclude with the relevance for Indian type of secularism for India.

      Siddharth,
      Good attempt. All the dimensions of the question has been answered. However introduction needs to be more elaborate. You can mention that secularism is principled distance between state and religion. The points mentioned by you are relevant. It would have been better had you shown the difference in comparative chart way. Overall a good answer.

      Keep writing.

      Hello

      Decent attempt. Intro is good, points mentioned are also fine. Draw a table and point out the differences..good presentation will add to your marks.
      Also, while mentioning about Indian secularism you can mention the concept of ‘sarv dharm sambhav’.
      Constitutional articles are well written.
      Also, before concluding you can mention the relevance of secularism in our country due to the diversity it has.
      Keep writing. Try to write more clearly if possible. 🙂
