does anybody realize that vande mataram though later adopted as a slogan and song during the freedom movement was originally written in honour not of india but of bengal the mother ? so we are actually singing a hymn in praise of bangla desh!

Hi Zaidi.. What is this crap you have written....Why is that people like you always have such feelings..what Bangladesh..did it exist even when this song was written..educate yourself man...simply do not start corellating anything and post is on this site Satish
Vande Mataram is not just a word or phrase it means to me that much which can\'t be explained in words, it re-energizes my soul whenever I listen to it, which I do often and it reminds me and makes me feel more -:{INDIAN}:- everytime.
Now since no one will ever be able to prove for whom Rabindranath Tagore wrote the poem for, there is absolutely no point discussing it. The focal point should be what it means to every Indian. As of today it is to be sung as a tribute to your motherland and I hope all Indians and Indian politician focus on other core issues to have a discussion on.
it, shame on the politician that even vandemataram "national song" is subjected to humiliation in the hands of fanatic people this song was torch bearer for all martyres fighting for freedom of our country /people of the country shoul;d rise against such fanatical decisions of handful of people and backed by sheer vaote bank politics/ they have hardly any respect for the sanctity of the country/if some people are not interested they may keep mum/and stand quite while national song is being sung
