Opening · a definition
Proselytization means encouragement or inducing people to join a religious movement, religion. It often takes form of forcible religious conversion.
Body · continuous prose
India is a rich multi fabric and multi religious society- where many religions live peacefully and mutually interacting with each other.
In present times, proselytization news have increased. It runs the risk of instilling fear in minorities. A rich culture sustains when minorities feel as safe and as part of total whole
as majority community feels. Attempts at proselytization are to instill a majoritarian rule and show belief of some pseudo-religiousits in primordial identities for 'status' and 'authority'. India has 14% Muslims, 78% Hindus, 2% Sikhs, 2% Jains, 1% Buddhists, 3% other. Thus India's minorities are also large in number. India as a civilization is respected for its assimilative character. Proselytizing is also in direct violation of Article 25 of Constitution which gives individual freedom of conscience. India's neighbours countries have seen the wrath of proselytization and have become failed states because social fabric affects all spheres - legal, economic, educational etc.
