What is communal politics? How is it preferred?
Answer:
Communal Politics: It is based on the idea that religion is the principal basis of social community. Communalism involves thinking that the followers of a particular religion must belong to one community. Their fundamental interests are the same. Any difference that they may have is irrelevant or trivial for community life. It also follows that people who follow different religions cannot belong to the same social community. If the followers of different religions have some commonalities, these are superficial and immaterial. Their interests are bound to be different and involve a conflict.
