With many religions and culture, we Indians boost that we live in mutual co-opeartion and completely secular, but with the recent Vande Mataram scandels and all-time fight between the religions in our country is India truly secular? I mean Indian citizen consider themselves first, then their religion and then may be their country.

1) For a country to be secular, it never meant that her citizens should place their country above their faiths or relilgion.

2) India is supposed to be a secular country. The amount to which this is implemented is questionable.

it is the government and politicians who are dividing the people.
yesterday Allahabad high court stuck down Haj subsidy on the grounds that it is against secular constitution, no one religion can be given special privilege and grant from government.
The central UPA govt has filed a petition in the supreme court against this judgement. In all probability supreme court will rule in favour of the central government. Mind you communists are also part of the central government yet they have not opposed the appeal of the UPA govt. The Muslims have not appealed against the ruling as they expect the government to do it for them.
Now you tell me who is breaking the secular structure of India?
