Vande Mataram will not be sung in full in Kerala: Minister K Muraleedharan

Kerala's health minister and a Congress MP stated the full Vande Mataram will not be sung. They affirmed only the first two couplets will be sung in state programs. This stance follows a Chief Secretary's letter regarding a nationwide campaign. The state government will adhere to its established protocol for national song recitations. This decision maintains the practice followed in previous state government events.
