Correct:
C
Explanation
Statement C is incorrect because Article 25(2)(b) of the Indian Constitution specifically empowers the State to make laws providing for social welfare and reform, or the throwing open of Hindu religious institutions of a public character to all classes and sections of Hindus. This means the right to freedom of religion does not prevent the State from intervening for social improvement.
- Option A is correct as per Article 25(1), which guarantees freedom of conscience.
- Option B is correct as per Article 28(1), which mandates that no religious instruction shall be provided in any educational institution wholly maintained out of State funds.
- Option D is correct as per Explanation II of Article 25, which clarifies that the reference to Hindus includes persons professing the Sikh, Jaina, or Buddhist religion.
