Vande Mataram

Vande Mataram: A Timeless Tribute to the Nation. Sanskrit poem penned by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee.

Vande Mataram, a revered Sanskrit poem penned by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, was originally featured in his 1882 Bengali novel Anandamath. The powerful verses were first rendered publicly by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore at the 1896 session of the Indian National Congress.

On this day in 1950, the Constituent Assembly of India officially adopted the first two stanzas of Vande Mataram as the National Song, etching it permanently into the cultural and patriotic fabric of the nation. →

Republic of India

India, officially the Republic of India,is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area; the most populous country since 2023, and, since its independence in 1947, the world's most populous democracy.Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the southwest, and the Bay of Bengal on the southeast, it shares land borders with Pakistan to the west; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north; and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India is near Sri Lanka and the Maldives; its Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with Thailand, Myanmar, and Indonesia. Modern humans arrived on the Indian subcontinent from Africa no later than 55,000 years ago. Their long occupation, predominantly in isolation as hunter-gatherers, has made the region highly diverse. Settled life emerged on the subcontinent in the western margins of the Indus river basin 9,000 years ago, evolving gradually into the Indus Valley Civilisation of the third millennium BCE. By 1200 BCE, an archaic form of Sanskrit, an Indo-European language, had diffused into India from the northwest. →
