Congress has again capitulated to Muslim League on Vande Mataram: Bharatiya Janata Party on Shashi Tharoor

The BJP has strongly criticised Congress leader Shashi Tharoor for his comments on the national song Vande Mataram. Tharoor questioned the mandatory singing of all verses, calling it an unnecessary imposition. The BJP alleges this shows Congress capitulating to the Muslim League, a Kerala ally. They accuse the party of disrespecting national honor and repeating past appeasement tactics.
