Although India is secular and democratic nation constitutionally, yet minorities need some safeguards to preserve their religions and cultural identity. Both the Indian government and minority community leaders have been making joint efforts to provide constitutional guarantees to the minorities. This book contains illustrated photographs, newspaper clippings, official letters and orders and memorandums highlighting these demands and guarantees. It is more or less a publicity effort to demonstrate governments' pro-minority outlook as well as the image of certain Sikh lobbyists and political leaders.[edit]
