This is an excellent article by @sanjayuvacha exposing the divisive politics of #India's ruling regime and how it uses cultural contexts to advance their agenda.
Think about what it means to force a Muslim civil servant, a Christian schoolteacher, a Sikh soldier, a Buddhist monk, or an atheist scientist to stand at attention while these verses are sung. That is not fostering unity. That is imposing a religious test in a secular republic.#TheHindu #VandeMataramControversy #NationalSong

The Centre has issued a sweeping new Vande Mataram protocol – mandating the full six-stanza version at official events, requiring audiences to stand, and placing it before the national anthem.
