Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to open a 10-hour debate in the Lok Sabha today on the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram. The discussion will highlight the song's role in India's freedom struggle amid political exchanges between the ruling BJP and opposition Congress. In the Rajya Sabha, Home Minister Amit Shah and JP Nadda will initiate similar debates, with Mallikarjun Kharge speaking for the opposition.
During the Winter Session of Parliament, Bharatiya Janata Party president JP Nadda criticised the Congress for not giving due respect to the national song Vande Mataram. He linked the issue to historical decisions in a Congress-dominated era. The debate highlights ongoing political tensions over cultural and decolonisation narratives.
