That probably is the narrowest definition of secularism. It includes respect for all religion and avoid use of excessive force.
Do you think this kind of force would have been used in a Mandar, surely not.
There is not much difference in approach between Bhindranwala and Sri Lankan uprising,
You killed Bindranwala but mourned killing of a Hindu separatist in Sri Lanka,
Your Secularism applies to minorities but not Hindus, I am sure you will agree with that..
In a relationship between state and citizen thats all it is. Its up to people specially people of conscious to respect everyone's religion and views.
I hope they do the same thing if terrorist take control of Hindu Mandir and you can't assume that it will not be done.
For your information Bhindranwale had never advocated separation his conflict started when he wanted the state to ban a Sikh religious sect that he considered heretic, its similar to Ahmadi's in Pakistan.
You are wrong in saying that death of Mr. Prabhakran was mourned by Indian's except by a significant minority of Tamil Naido. He was a murderer who bombed and killed people indiscriminately.
