Meaning of secularism

My forefathers have been magnanimous ,wise and it makes me really proud . Even though India was divided on communal lines and the countries of pakistan , bangladesh and srilanka were created by the british , yet our fathers and forefathers chose to keep the country secular and provide equal rights for all minorities . No one is discriminated on the lines of religion or caste . The constitution guarantees it and that is what our forefathers pledged to keep this great nation the fabric , spirit intact.
Please understand India does not need Hindus ,minorities , castes , religion . It is the people who need India .
Idol worship is as good as or as bad as idolized worship . The choice is freely available to anyone in India .
