Gandhi's View on Religion and Politics
Mahatma Gandhi famously stated that "Religion can never be separated from Politics".
This statement reflects his belief that politics should be guided by ethical principles derived from one's inner sense of righteousness or religion (in its broadest sense, meaning duty and moral compass), rather than by partisan interests or power struggles.
For Gandhi, religion was not about sectarianism but about truth and morality, which he felt were essential foundations for political action aimed at serving the people and achieving justice.
Therefore, the quote is attributed to Mahatma Gandhi.
