Tolerance is the Foundation of Indian Democracy


The preamble of India empowers it to be a democratic, sovereign, secular and a republic country. These principles are the base and the fundamental bricks in the formation of our country. India is a country full of diversities yet the string which passes through these variant beads and make it one garland is what unity is. The feeling of being one, existing in the same nation is what makes us being called 'Indians', and this land of diversions, 'India'. 
The sense of oneness does not come from the people around or the critics but it is the inner feeling and the inner voice which compel us to feel complete in India. Whenever, in abroad,someone ask who are you, people do do not reply with the state they belong to but marks themselves as Indian.
'Cooperation is the way to peace'. This phrase perfectly defines the root of unity in India. It is true that for every stable and growing relationship, cooperation and coordination is required. For it maybe two persons or a country or the conflict; if cooperated, it can make its way to peace.
In India, irrespective of having a variety of religion and cultures, every single religion is respected. The diversity never compromises with the principles it has been laid on. Anyone who demeans others on the basis of their choices of food, living, earnings, perspective etc. does not constitute to believe in the principle of indianness. Indianness is the feeling of oneness, the gust to be one and to find perfection in the imperfections of the human. A person has to let go or tolerate and understand that yes, there do exist differences but to overcome the same is the real task of a democratic and secular country because If one is free to practice his rituals then who is he to criticize others?
This clearly states that it is the Tolerance which holds people united. If a person keeps on interfering or questioning, neither would he ever attain peace nor would justify the rights and freedom given to him.
Tolerance means overlooking one's actions or flaws for the sake of the relation it abides. India is laid on the foundation of tolerance. every different or variant person has to tolerate the actions, choice, perceptions and mindsets of others. Or one has been given freedom, that doesn't mean that he could form mist infront of the visions of others. As one, in preaching himself is not obstructed by others then he should return back the same. 
Thus cooperation and coordination continue to maintain harmony and peace in the differences of the country. 

For I, a citizen of India
Shall abide the principle of Indianness
As to whom am I to compel
When I've been gifted these fundamentals as well.
For I, a citizen of India
Shall abide to tolerate the ones dearer
As once upon a time, it was me, the bearer.
For I, a citizen of India
Shall preserve my country
Off the injustice with the preamble.
