Multiculturalism can be defined as a body of thought in political philosophy about the proper way to respond to cultural and religious diversity. It encompasses equal respect to the various cultures in a society, promotion of the maintenance of cultural diversity, and is characterised by preservation of the distinctiveness of multiple cultures that co-exist in the same society. Culturally, linguistically, religiously and ethnically, India is one of the most diverse countries in the world. Its long history, unique geography and diverse demography have shaped its culture. Its languages, literature, religions, dance, music, art, architecture and customs differ from place to place within the country, but still possess a commonality. India’s culture is an amalgamation of many diverse sub-cultures spread all over the subcontinent.
