Full Vande Mataram to ring out from Red Fort for 1st time on Independence Day
Vande Mataram will be sung as PM Modi arrives at Red Fort, followed by flag hoisting and his customary address to the nation.
The national song Vande Mataram will be sung from the Red Fort's ramparts for the first time during this year's Independence Day celebrations, marking the 150th anniversary of the anthem, according to defence secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh. Around 27,000 attendees, including youth innovators, entrepreneurs, and students, are expected to gather at the historic site.
The celebrations will focus on two themes: "150 Years of Vande Mataram" and "Yuva Shakti for Viksit Bharat@2047." The latter theme emphasizes the contributions of young Indians to a prosperous India by 2047.
