Prime Minister Narendra Modi met the BJP’s newly appointed national office-bearers at the party headquarters in New Delhi, following the party's adoption of a resolution highlighting the historical significance and legacy of 'Vande Mataram'. The BJP strongly criticized the Congress Working Committee (CWC) for re-adopting its 1937 decision to limit the singing of 'Vande Mataram' at party programmes to its first two stanzas, arguing that the Congress decision could not take precedence over the Constitution or laws enacted by Parliament.
The BJP also announced a nationwide campaign to spread awareness about the National Song’s history and importance, aiming to protect its dignity and honor the contributions of those who took part in India’s freedom movement.
