The study was made to measure the prejudices of Hindus and Muslims against each other in relation to certain sociological and personality factors. The sociological factors were religious affiliation (Hindu,Muslim), caste-status (High/Low) and urban-rural origin. The personality variables included anxiety, authoritarianism and rigidity. A questionnaire consisting of scales to measure prejudice and the above three personality variables was given to a sample of 160 Hindu and 160 Muslim college students, each community having equal number of high caste, low caste and urban-rural cases who were selected on a stratified random basis. The result shows that both Hindus and Muslims are ethnocentric and prejudiced. Muslims, however, had more prejudices than the Hindus. There was no impact of either caste-status or urban-rural origin on prejudice in both Hindu and Muslim groups. Prejudices of both Hindus and Muslims had a significant positive correlation with anxiety, authoritarianism and rigidity. There was no significant difference between Hindus and Muslims in rigidity and authoritarianism. The Muslims had, however, higher level of anxiety than the Hindus.
