Detailed Solution

Discrimination based on religion is not a characteristic of a secular state.
A secular state separates religion from the state. It does not allow any interference of religion in matters and affairs of the state. The main characteristic of a secular state is that there is no official religion of the state. The country's people have the Freedom of Religion to practise any religion of their choice. All religious communities are treated equally, and there is no discrimination towards any religious communities based on the differences in the religion they practise.
