I was watching CNN IBN yday night. the reporters were asking some BJP leaders to sing or explain a few texts from the song Vande Mataram. It was funny and embarassing that none of them actually knew the song. BJP's spokesperson avoided the question 3 to 4 times when he was asked the meaning of a particular stanza of the song. And finally he asked the reporter that he will answer the question only when the reporter answers his question as to "When Did Colour TV came to India?" It was such a sorry sight. These r the same leaders who want to make the song mandatory in BJP ruling states.
It is sad to see that a song which made such a hige impact during our Freedom's Struggle is insulated and misused by our politicians for political gains. none of them r saints. All politicial parties r using this issue to score some points over each other.
Thats the sad part of this whole episode.
