Indians say free to practice any religion

Washington: Indians generally feel they live in a society where followers of many religions can live and practice freely, according to the latest survey of the US-based think-tank pew.
Based on an adult face-to-face interview conducted in 17 languages ​​between the end of 2019 and early 2020 (before the Covid-19 pandemic), the Pew survey of 30,000 Indians found that Indians from all religious backgrounds were very free of training their beliefs.
“Indians see religious tolerance as the middle of who they are as a nation.
In all major religious groups, most people say it is very important to respect all religions to become ‘truly India’.” “And tolerance is a religious and public value: India is united in view that respecting other religions is a very important part of what it means to be a member of their own religious community, “he said.
According to Pew, despite sharing certain values ​​and religious beliefs – and living in the same country, under the same constitution – members of the Indian religious community often do not feel much of each other.
The majority of Hinduism sees themselves very different from Muslims (66%), and most Muslims restore sentiment, say they are very different from Hindus (64% cents).
There are several exceptions: Two-thirds of Jain and about half of Sikh say they have many similarities with Hindus.
But in general, people in Indian’s main religious communities tend to see themselves very different from others, he said.
This survey also found Hindus tend to see their religious identity and Indian national identity closely related: almost two Hindu three-thirds (64%) said it was very important to be Hinduism for “really”.
