Concluding his post with Vande Mataram, Majhi said the historic and emotional significance attached to the song must continue to be honoured and preserved for future generations.
The BJP resolution comes amid renewed emphasis on the historical legacy and complete rendition of Vande Mataram which played a significant role in mobilising nationalist sentiment during India’s freedom struggle.
