A special discussion on the 150th anniversary of the national song ‘Vande Mataram’ is set to take place in the Lok Sabha today, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The debate, scheduled for 10 hours, will explore the song’s history and significance. Prime Minister Modi has accused the Congress of ‘sowing the seeds of partition’ by removing key stanzas of the song in 1937, a move he claims divided the song’s soul. In response, the Congress, represented by Deputy Leader in the Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi, has defended the decision as one based on Rabindranath Tagore’s advice to ensure inclusivity. Opposition leaders have stated they respect the song but will oppose any ‘monolithic illiberal communal agenda’ imposed by the ruling government. The discussion follows the song’s 150th anniversary, which was observed on Sunday.
