New Delhi, Nov 7 (UNI) As a tribute to India’s national song — ‘Vande Mataram’, Delhi Assembly on Friday unveiled a plaque engraved with the complete text of the song to commemorate 150 years of it’s composition.
Inaugurating the tablet , Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta said, "Vande Mataram is a timeless anthem that binds every Indian to the spirit of our motherland."
Recalling its origins, Gupta shared how Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, a distinguished civil servant and visionary writer, composed this eternal hymn on Ashwin Navami, November 7, 1875, inspired by the pain and humiliation he endured under colonial rule. He narrated how the song later found a place in Anandamath (1882), where the saints of the monastery embodied the religion of patriotism.
