Tolerance

Read the following passages and answer the questions given at the end of each:

Each one of us must realize that the only future for India and her people is one of tolerance and cooperation which have been the basis of our culture from ages past. We have laid down in our constitution that India is a secular state. This does not mean irreligion. It means equal respect for all faiths and equal opportunities for those who profess faith. We have, therefore, always to keep in mind this vital aspect of our culture which is also of the highest importance in India today.
