Islam does not have the status of an official religion in Slovakia. In November 2016, Slovakia passed a law ending the status of Islam as an official religion.

Editorial viewpoint

In contrast to India, these countries do not have secularists. By claiming that the Government is anti-Muslim, they would have created a fuss to establish Muslim settlements.
