Detailed Solution

The above statement is False. According to the Indian Constitution, there is no official religion in India. The Preamble to the Constitution declared India to be a "secular" country with the passage of the 42nd Amendment to the Indian Constitution (1976). A secular state is one that does not give the nation or its citizens a preference for any one faith. Institutions began to appreciate pluralism, acknowledge and accept all religions, and enact legislative legislation in the place of religious ones. The official religion of India is not directed to any particular religion. It also has no affiliation to any certain faith. There is no recognised state religion in India. However, a person's religion may have separate personal rules on issues like marriage, divorce, inheritance, and alimony.
The correct statement is that there is no official religion in India.
