C Correct answer
Explanation

Secularism in the Indian context (Article 28) means complete detachment of the state from religious affairs. The state neither promotes nor opposes any religion - all religions are treated equally. Option A (no religious practice) and B (only Indian religions) are incorrect; secularism allows all religions to practice freely.
