Answer
$(A)$ Communalism:
When a person or a group of people identifies itself as an organized and aggressive unit, against any other religion or sect and behaves accordingly, it is called communalism.
Even after so many years of independence and growing as a modern country, india has not been able to solve the problems of communalism.
$(B)$ Effects of colonialism on society:
Feeling of communalism leads to communal tension in the society.
People having strong communal feelings try to show that their religion is superior compared to other Religious and give more importance to religious interest.
Such people do not look at other people with equality. They look them with a communal perspective These kind of feelings divide the society.
$(C)$ Effects of communalism on country and its constitution:
Religion is a matter of faith and showing respect towards other religions.
Mostly, every person follows one or the other religion or sect.
Moreover, India is a secular country and so people of various religions live here.
Having feeling of communalism is not only against the society but also against the spirit on which our constitution is framed.
