Everybody knows that our country is a secular country and also democratic. In our country all the people have rights to raise their voices, speech and expression according to the country and the government. Ok!let's come to the topic. If religion mixes with politics how an country be called has secular. It will lead to a big problem for a country. For example mainly during elections if one representative or a politician of a party gives wrong speech about his opposition or blames him it leads to a big problem. So, now let's put a religious representative or politician, the same will happen one representative will blame on another religion their will be conflicts between the religions. Of course, the whole country will become a war arena because of the fights and conflicts between the religions. In my opinion, religion and politics should not be mixed.

I think everything has two aspects positive or negative. Just see the positive sight if religion mixed with politics it will be a great help for lower caste people who have left aside like garbage but after mixing many laws will be implemented which will give them equal rights like others.

Also, in Christians, if any person changes its own religion to Christian they promise them to provide them food money shelter which is the best thing for living a good life.

Religion should not be mixed with politics because if it will it creates many conflicts among peoples. Religion and Politics are two different aspects In recent Scenario we see many politicians try to mix them and try to create conflicts between societies who have different religion especially between Hindu and Muslim and it happens mostly during election session. Nowadays we see many incidents happen between Hindu and Muslims because our politician mixes their politics with this sensitive thing and want to complete their personal agenda. Many Politician plays with people's sentiments and mind and wants to create an aggressive situation between two religion.

I think religion and politics should not be mixed because both are two different things.

1. In our country there are so many religion, taking one will only lead to conflict, as taking one means only that religion is superior.

2. Today a lot of Riots are happening around our country just because of religion, they think there religion is better than each other which is not corret every religion is equal.

3. For every person his or her religion is the think on which he or she have their pride whereas politics is a think which is done for all the people of the country not for only a single person for their welfare so both are very different we should not mixed both.

4. India is a secular country and by that we should know that no religion is superior and no religion is down.

So, l think religion and politics should not be mixed ever.

I would say religion and politics are two completely different aspects. But nowadays religion is being used for politics.

There are too many Hindu Muslim and Christian fights. Why?

If a politician thinks that he could do good for the nation using his capabilities then he shouldn't use the religion factor.

And because of this mixing of religion with politics people go with their religion ignoring the capabilities or skills of the political leader.

I completely agree with the fact that religion should never be a part of politics because it just eliminates the factor of politics there. There are only communal fights and wars.

Religion and politics shouldn't be mixed because both of them are a different thing. If religion is mixed with politics it will cause disturbances into the country. Politicians will make wrong use of religion into politics.

I think it should be. If we look at countries like India, which consist of such a large diversity, it should be mixed for the sake of the country's real majority. When politicians mix religion with the politics, intentionally or unintentionally they enhance the societal system and encourage the social life of an individual. I am not talking about the welfare of discrimination but the acknowledgement for the thinking of people who are really in a minority.

As in India politicians mainly fight with the perception regarding Hindu and Muslim but the truth is, Muslim are not real minority there are many states in which Muslims are in majority.

And religion is the basic factor of social occasions practised by any individual and hence if mixing religion with politics can benefit one"s social practice then why not it shouldn't.

Of couse, religion shouldn't be mixed with politics but what's the use of it in our country. I say that there are also some politicians who just wanted the power to encourage their own religion and also some politicians implement schemes for their religion and you can also check that in india20 churches were burnt just in a night but I haven't seen that temples were burnt anytime any where. And even politicians don't look into this matter.

So, I conclude that instead of saying religion and politics should not mixed they can name thier party as Christian or hindu because the name of a party is just a cover. There's nothing like Romanticism of country in politics and moreover its a power play.

In my views, the two should not be mixed. But I think there is no fault of the politicians in mixining the two it's we who are doing that, it's we who have allowed these things to be done in our country, it we who gave the politicians religion as a tool too play with. India is considered as a mother of religions but I guess this diversity in religion which should have been used to actually stand upon the famous line of "unity in diversity" is not being implemented rather we take pride in calling ourselves Muslim, sikh, dalits etc instead of being called as Indians. That's why politicians choose to favour that religion which has majority or whose maximum people support their incentives cause they think that using religion is atleast bearing them fruits to get in power in our country. Definitely who would not like to stay in power. This is not to offend any particular party but if some Muslim political leader would say that Hanuman was a Muslim and give all those long explanations for it definitely Muslims would support him. We have created a wall in human race breaking it into religions.
