By: Chakraborty, Suparna

Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Theology - Comparative Religion Studies, grade: 1.3, University of G ttingen (Centre for Modern Indian Studies), course: Modern Indian Studies, language: English, abstract: This paper wants to portray the changing nature of religion in India which causes nothing but segregation among people in the period of the colonial to postcolonial era. Hindu the predominating religion in India and the attempt to make India a Hindu country many times caused major harm to other communities. After colonial domination, significantly in contemporary times (last 6 to 7 years), religiosity among people took a horrendous form in India. The growing intolerance for a hollow ideology like religion makes the country an uncomfortable habitation for minorities. The Media sphere is also largely influenced and subservient to religious notions. Religion is an excellent apparatus for political gain. Over time the salience of religion transforms public life and became highly politicized.
