Detailed Solution

This statement is false.
In a democracy, to avoid the tyranny of the majority, one has to focus on giving special protection to minorities. The Indian Constitution makers had this realisation, so they introduced the cultural and educational rights for the minorities under the Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution. It had been done to maintain peace and harmony among all the communities, whether in the majority or minority. Under cultural and educational rights, minority communities are given the freedom to promote their culture and establish their educational institutions without hampering the integrity of the nation. The minorities can promote their language, culture, etc., in the educational institutions established by them.
The correct statement is the Indian Constitution has recognised the rights of minorities.
