Every person has a right to profess, practise and propagate the religion he/she believes in. But this freedom does not mean that a person can do whatever he wants in the name of religion. The limitations of this freedom are given below:
(i) One cannot sacrifice animals or human beings as offerings to supernatural forces or gods.
(ii) Religious practices which treat women as inferior or those that infringe women's freedom are not allowed.
(iii) One cannot force a widowed woman to shave head or wear white clothes.
etc.
