Detailed Solution

A secular state does not establish any one religion as the official religion.
When a country declares itself to be officially neutral in religious matters, that is, when it does not favour religion or irreligion, the concept of a secular state enters the picture. It is referred to as secularism. Secularism is founded on the premise that the state is only concerned with human-to-human interactions, not human-to-God relations. Indian secularism maintains a principled and equal distance from all religions. In dealing with all religions, the state must remain unbiased and impartial.
