Secularismna ennama?

I remember a television commerical that used to be aired for Hamam soap It featured a divine looking little kid asking her mother “Nermaina ennama?”(What is honesty?).Sheer innocence manifested in that little kid ‘s question .

With purity of thought akin to that kid,I am asking this question to anyone who can answer-Sir /Madam -Secularismna enna?

I have read multitude of sources but I am still grappling for a convincing explanation Infact even the profoundly philosphical Gaurav ,Indian blogosphere ‘s master of aphorism, could only muster this much

The provocation for this philosphical enquiry is the barrage of analysis in the Indian MSM attributing the Saffron Surge in Karnataka to division of 'Secular' votes.Please note that the MSM analyst include the votes polled by JD-S in the 'secular' count.Yes the very JD-S which ran a fairly competent coalition government with BJP for entire 20 months till it reneged on its part of the agreement resulting in fresh elections
