But all religions direct to the Only One. Just that they have different names to it…
 
So there are places where the child can take up the sacraments and follow Christianity as well as services of other religion?
 
What country are you in ? Any Indian Priest I know will not baptise the child of non practicing parents. In India.
 
The Catholic Church does not and would never teach that. Ever.
 
People “can” do pretty much whatever suits them as long as it is not illegal.

The Church does not teach that one can be indifferent to religion thinking all are right.
 
I’m talking about every religion in general… They almost teach the same values… And then there is human interpretation of these values… Each have their own perspectives
 
Again, this is no where near Catholic teaching and flies in the face of the first commandment. Your profile says Catholic. You were not taught this as a Catholic were you?
 
… They almost teach the same values…
Catholicism teaches similar values to some other religions, such as being faithful, honest, merciful. The difference is that Catholics follow Jesus, who purchased salvation for us by his death and resurrection. Other religions have no such person to follow. You really cannot combine Catholicism with another religion; it would only confuse children.
 
Say suppose, a Hindu man and a woman of Catholic belief get married and they decide to raise their children in interfaith of both religion. But though the children’s records will mention them as Hindus, they would taught and exposed to both the religions equally. So my question is: is it possible for them to still receive the sacraments such as Baptism, Holy communion and confirmation through their mother’s obligation?
No.
Also that’s one way to mix up the kids. To be honest I would say avoid interfaith marriage altogether.
