		<description>This National song (Vande M******) completely profane the concept of God not only in Islam but if Hindu people think out of the box &amp; study their &quot;spiritual guidance&quot; thoroughly with a deep &amp; logical understandings of Holy scriptures in Hinduism including (Vedas), than certainly without doubt their souls will regard these lyrics of song as blasphemy.
After all people only believe in One GOD (The Gracious).

		<description>Vande matharam is a song praising the Nature and beauty of our land. Who said it was in praise of Durga? India is a country with great heritage and we were hospitable enough to the Mogul invaders for islam to take root here. If we profess democracy and secularism it is not a right to show disrespect to Nation or National Anthem and Songs. Why are they hurt by singing a National song/anthem/Why they are afraid to give freedom of thought and expression ? What they are afraid of? Are their religiuon so fragile that if they sing Vande Matharam their religious faith in Allah will fade/vanish?Ridiculous. recently I studied a report that in UAE/Saudi/Bahrain etc.. many old Mosques have been demolished to give room for larger constructions. In India they make a big issue of babri Masjid where Hindus believe their Rama was born. Hinduism is millions of years old as proved by research and archeological surveys and satellite pictures. Satya Yuga existed in India. Islam is only 1400 years old. It can exist only if it is more tolerant as Hinduism.If they show disrespect to other faiths and National goals like Family Planning etc.. telling the Name of religion it is rather against the National Interest. It is advised such haters of Indian ways and means shall quit and go to their Islamic countries, and settle down there. They cannot expect Hindu Majority to appease them always that too on baseless doctrines and blind faiths and beliefs. They should open up and be more pragmatic and tolerant.</description>

		<description>Well I do not really see any thing that is wrong with this song. It is a gratitude that we are giving to the soil (soil=source, origin same as in mother)from which we were created. If this soil was not there there would not have been Muslims or Hindus. Our imams that raise the Fatwas should know that Islam is a religion on Peace and we believe that all living things have a right to live. 
Can any Imam come out with a Fatwa against the terrorists that blow them selves, killing innocent lives just so that they can go into the arms of 72 virgins? Will the virgins want to be with such persons ? Wake up Islam is a religion of peace and not SEX. 
. I think now the Imams have got too carried away and we need liberals. Islam cannot become a religion of killers.

		<description>Vandemataram should not be required to sing. Its core meaning revolves around hindu Goddess &quot;durga&quot;, therefore we cannot expect people opposite religioun to sing. It was written by Chatterji, a Bengoli poet in onw of his book. People took that song and sung it to encourage British to leave India, and was adopted to build unity among Indians. It was surely treated as a national anthem. But after 1947 there was a debate among poet whether it really whould be a national anthem. Rabinranath Tagore made a really good point saying that since &quot;vandemataram&quot; song&#039;s core revolves around &quot;ma durga&quot; we cannot expect muslamans to sing it. In our paliament we3 need a song of unity not religious diffrence, and this is how &quot;jan man gana&quot; was actually adopted as India&#039;s national anthem. Therefore I strongly believe that vandemataram should not be required to be sung by children at schools.</description>

		<description>True!!!
There is no harm in singing this song which praises our motherland. If anyone has any objections against praising our motherland and cannot recite the song, they should leave this country first...</description>

		<description>September 7th is not the centenary of this song by any standards. At best Congress adopted it on this day, this too no one is sure.
