BJP passes 'Vande Mataram' resolution, condemns Congress move, says no compromise on National Song’s honour
The Bharatiya Janata Party passed a resolution defending Vande Mataram's national status. This action strongly condemned the Congress Working Committee's recent decision regarding the song. The BJP affirmed the constitutional and statutory protection of the complete National Song. They rejected attempts to subordinate Vande Mataram to communal or political considerations.
