Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Communalism is not to be seen as a hazard to only some people in India. It “threatens the very idea of the nation.” A Constitution of India which propagates secularism is necessary but not adequate to battle communalism. Communal prejudices and propaganda need to be battled even in our daily lives. The ugliest forms that communalism can take are violence, riots, and massacre. India is a country that professes secularism. The Constitution does not give special status to any one religion. It also gives the State the right to intervene when equality within the communities is compromised. Hence, the correct statement would be that Communalism in India is not hazardous to one religious group and its followers.
