Conclusions

• Mixing of Religion with Politics was unethical and lead to rousing of passions and consequent violence and therefore should be banned legally.
• It was the main cause of ill-will, suspicion, and mistrust between different communities.
• All Religions teach love, brotherhood, peace and tranquility and should never be misused for ulterior motives.
• Religion has played an important role in our social structure since India has been a multi religious country.
• It should be the aim of every citizen of the country to see a society free of conflicts and tensions where one and all can enjoy the fruits of freedom.
