Today, When peace seems to be a far cry in the world,we all need to join hands and remember what the Mahatma stood for. All religions regard human values such as love,kindness, tolerance, humanity, Truth,as principles of their creed. Tolerance towards people of other religions,respect for the rights of the minorities,universal brotherhood and communal harmony are the common factors which the representatives of all faiths must re-affirm and re-dedicate to themselves.Religion must be used for the good of the society.According to Mahatma Gandhi,there is no greater sin than oppress the innocent in the name of God. It is necessary that the politicians should have fear of God in their mind. Good governance would be the natual consequence when the country's polity is in the hands of men loaded with religious conscious. The history of mankind shows that religion has positive influence on the habit-forming and day-to-day activities of an individual. Whether a person is a politician,a bureaucrat or a professional, his religious training and belief are bound to influence his acts and deeds while interacting with the people. A true religious person would never act in a manner prejudicial to humanity. Unfortunately the politicians in India forgetting the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi,are making a mockery of the religious face of the country. Religion is being misused to wield political power.
