Vande Matram , yes , & why not...
by Dharmendra Goel on Aug 29, 2006 11:54 AM

Panchkula . Tuesday, the 29th August ,2006.
This is petty-minded clergy like Shahi Imam self-anointed spokesman of Muslims who have problems with Idol-worship.It was never any problem fro hundreds of Musicians such as Late Bismillah Khan
sahib, or fakir Ustad Allaudin Khan sahib who sung fro Saraswati and Sharda,Like wise it was no problem to APJ Abdul Kalam Martyred Ashfaqullah khan (Kakori 1926 along with Ramprasd Bismil).Was it any problem to the Paramvir Chakra winner Company Havildar Abdul Hamid of Khemkaran (1965 War)or earlier the Mahavir Chakra awardee Brigadier Usmani in Kasmir to sing Vande-Matram when they laid their great souls at the feet of their Madre-Vatan Bharat Mata in heroic acts of defending the Indian Soil.So smugglers and ghaddars -secularism or vote-banks notwithstandings hould never be given the clout to decide questions of bonding of all India's citizens!D.
