The misuse of secularism

There is an immense amount of confusion regarding the word 'secular.' The so called educated society doesn't even remotely understand what this means and what it means to implement a secular government. In order to understand this further, lets start with the ACTUAL definition: Secularism - The view that all matters of civil policy should be conducted without the introduction of a religious element. Lets take a look at what goes on in our country. Tax money is taken from all citizens irrespective of religion and used to fund universities such as Aligarh Muslim University. This "great" institution in return decides to provide lawyers to the very same terrorists who's only intent is to destroy the majority Hindu population via any means, be it suicide bombing if necessary (although with the Congress Party in rule they can kill in public and still get away therefore they don't need to blow themselves up.) Since the 1981 over 65,000 people have been killed and over 600,000 people have been forced out of their own homeland by these terrorists, yet the Congress party refuses to let alone doubt even interrogate suspects with proven terrorist records!!. What is the main reason? Because they don't want to make it seem as if they are suspecting the community. Apparently their feelings are worth more than the lives of natural citizens, who have called Bharat their homeland for over 4000 years! There is also this concept of sending muslims to this trip called 'Haj' which is paid for by the government of India yet the very same government can't even setup clean bathrooms and a place to stay so that elderly, women and children who take part in the Shri Amarnath Yatra can complete their pilgrimage with peace. On one hand you provide a flight service all the way to mecca using tax payers' money but on the other hand you refuse to provide even the basic necessities for your own people!? The government doesn't want to setup these facilities and insists on treating the Indian citizens as secondary citizens in THEIR country? Where is there secularism in this? The so called "educated" society argues that such actions are necessary so they don't feel discriminated against therefore it is secular, which is base of democracy. Once again these "educated" people seem to lack the capacity to even understand the fact that democracy is based on the idea that all citizens are equal and will be governed by one law and the lawmakers will be chosen by the people. In what sense is this secular or democratic!? If this is secular then I would love to hear what these "educated" people think appeasement is, given that such a word even exists in their world. The real kicker of this situation is that majority of this "educated society" is comprised of journalists, people in high positions in society and scholars of which 80% claim they are Hindus. It is pivotal that these people and everyone understand that getting your diploma which reads you have obtained your Bachelors, Masters, or whatever the degree may be doesn't equate one to being educated unless they obtain the tools necessary to implement the ideas taught in academia into other parts of their lives. What is the use of your education if you can't think on your own? What is the use of your education if after academia, you still blindly believe things that are placed in front of you? What is the use of your education if you falsely fall prey to idiotic propaganda? What is the use of your education if after 22 years you still can't understand the fact that not voting because you don't "like" any of the candidates is by far the worst thing to do? As a final note, what is the use of an education if you can't understand the basic definitions of secularism and democracy, yet you're so keen on agreeing with people who use them as punchlines.
