Civil society coalition accuses government of misusing secularism in election campaign

Original: ELECTION CAMPAIGN: A BROAD CIVIL SOCIETY COALITION CONDEMNS THE OUTGOING GOVERNMENT’S INSTRUMENTALISATION OF SECULARISM

A broad coalition of civil society organisations has publicly condemned the outgoing government, accusing it of instrumentalising secularism during the election campaign. The statement argues that secular principles are being used as a political tool rather than defended on their own merits. The condemnation adds a human rights dimension to the campaign debate as the vote approaches.

Why now: The accusation lands in the middle of an election campaign, making secularism a contested political issue.
