Right to Freedom of Religion (Articles 25–28)

Subject: Polity

Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth

Secures religious liberty, allowing individuals to profess, practice, and propagate their faith, subject to public order, health, and morality. Article 25 ensures freedom of conscience, while Articles 26 and 27 protect the management of religious affairs and exemption from paying taxes for promotion of any religion. Article 28 addresses religious instruction in educational institutions maintained by the state. These provisions cultivate a pluralistic ethos, encouraging harmony among diverse faiths and practices. However, the state can regulate secular activities (e.g., financial management of temples) to prevent misuse of religious prerogatives.
