vande mataram....
by nilesh on Aug 24, 2006 01:56 PM

I think that we have already insulted 'Vande Mataram' by not taking it as our national anthem during independence... it played a very important role during the freedom struggle and was ingored once we attained freedom...yes people will say that this is still a national song...but tell me one thing what do you sing during 15th aug/26th jan/any flag hoisting ceremonies...the national anthem and not the national song..so it doesn't matter now. we have already sidetracked 'Vande Mataram' and its importance a longggg time ago. we made a compromise at that time ( for whatever reasons) and we still continue to make compromises in each and every matter since our independence
