About Lesson

A. Social Empowerment: From Communalism, Regionalism, To Secularism

Personal and social empowerment is the process of individuals or groups gaining the skills to control their lives, and crucially, to support the empowerment of others in their community.

Communalism, Regionalism, and Secularism are political ideologies with different belief systems and different modes of application. The three are important parts of Indian polity but have different interpretations based on the ideologies.

Communalism is defined as prioritizing association toward one’s ethnic group rather than the society as a whole.

Regionalism can be defined as a political ideology focusing on the development of a political or social system based on one or more particular regions.

Secularism is based on the principle that the affairs of the state are distinct from religion and should not be intermixed.
