what is the difference between Indian secularism and American secularism

SOLUTION:

Difference between Indian secularism and American secularism is- 
  • The one significant way in which Indian secularism differs from the dominant understanding of secularism as practised in USA This is because unlike the strict separation between religion and the State in American secularism, in Indian secularism the State can intervene in religious affairs,. For example the Indian Constitution intervened in Hindu religious practises in order to abolish untouchability. In Indian secularism, though the state is not strictly separate from religion it does maintain a principled distance vis-a-vis religion.
