We dont have a particular religion..

Mauritius is made of different cultures thus resulting in more than one religion.

Hindus make up 52%, Roman Catholic 28.4%, and Muslim 16.6% while other unspecified religions up to 3%.

Hindus include http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Bhojpuri, http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Tamil_language, http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Marathi and http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Telugu speakers.
