Question
Which of the following is not correct with reference to
the rights guaranteed under the Right to Freedom of Religion?Solution
According to Article 25, all persons are equally entitled to freedom of conscience and the right to freely profess, practice and propagate religion. Everyone enjoys the right to follow the religion of his or her choice. This freedom is considered as a hallmark of democracy. • In India, everyone is free to choose a religion and practice that religion. Freedom of religion also includes freedom of conscience. This means that a person may choose any religion or may choose not to follow any religion. Freedom of religion includes the freedom to profess, follow and propagate any religion. • Freedom of religion is subject to certain limitations. The government can impose restrictions on the practice of freedom of religion in order to protect public order, morality and health. This means that the freedom of religion is not an unlimited right. • The government can interfere in religious matters for rooting out certain social evils. For example in the past, the government has taken steps banning practices like sati, bigamy or human sacrifice. Such restrictions cannot be opposed in the name of interference in the right to freedom of religion. Hence, option (d) is not correct.Â
