Detailed Solution

The above statement is true. The assumption that religion is the primary foundation of social community underlies communal politics. A religion's adherents must all be members of the same community. Their primary interests are the same. Any difference they may have is meaningless or insignificant regarding communal life. As a result, people of different religions cannot belong to the same social society. A communal mindset frequently leads to a desire for political supremacy within one's religious group. Majoritarian domination is the result of people who belong to the majority community. It can take the shape of a desire to construct a distinct political unit for people in the minority community. Communalism may sometimes take the most terrible form of community violence, rioting, and genocide. For example, communal riots in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Gujarat. Some individuals in India should not regard communalism as a danger. It compromises the fundamental concept of India. That is why communalism must be opposed.
