Islam is the predominant religion
with over 88% adherents. Hindus comprise about 10% of the population. The
rest are Buddhists, Christians and animists. People are generally pious and
keen in observing their respective religious rites and festivities with
fervour. Bangladesh is a model of religious harmony and tolerance. Different
religious communities and groups live in peace and the minorities are well
represented in all tiers of society as well as in the government machinery.
