Oppn belittling ‘Vande Mataram’ by linking it to Bengal polls: Amit Shah in Rajya Sabha

Home Minister Amit Shah asserted that the Congress’s decision to divide Vande Mataram in 1937, as a concession to the Muslim League, initiated appeasement politics that ultimately led to India’s partition. He emphasized the song’s role in cultural nationalism and slammed the opposition for belittling its significance.
