Quoting Jawaharlal Nehru's "Tryst with Destiny" speech:

The real issue is that it's hard to tell which parts of our traditions come from ancient religion and which parts are just cultural habits or things we started doing for convenience.
Also, when both the so-called secular groups and religious groups use religion for politics, the problem gets complicated and mi
