Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu on Thursday said that secularism is in the DNA of Indians.

"Secularism is in the DNA of each Indian. India wants the whole world to remain in peace," Naidu said while inaugurating a three-day Lokmanthan programme here.

"The nation is built on people's wishes. There is a tradition of dialogue and discussion in Indian culture. The dialogue between Lord Krishna and Arjuna produced the Geeta," he said.
