Over 2,000 students from around 40 degree colleges across Udupi district will get together on Malpe beach on January 13 to create a new record by singing ‘Vande Mataram’. The event is being organised by Samvedana Foundation.

Revealing this to media persons, Prakash Malpe, coordinator of the programme, said that the Foundation would enter the Golden Book of World Records by organising the event. This is being done as part of the 155th birth anniversary celebrations of Swami Vivekananda.

All the students will don white clothing while singing the national song. In addition, a 200 m long flag will be carried in procession from Gandhi Shatabhi ground to Malpe beach at 2.30 p.m. The singing would begin at 4 p.m. It would be sung in full with background music. Already, about 2,000 degree college students from about 40 degree colleges in Udupi have volunteered to participate in the event.

A team of 30 musicians were visiting these colleges to prepare the students for the event. Playback singers, including Rajesh Krishnan, Sangeeta Ravindranath, Malini Keshav Prasad, Surekha Hegde, Shruti Tumkur, Yashwant, Jagadish Puttur and Vaishnavi Manipal, would join the students.

The students would also sport a badge with the slogan ‘Save Nature for Future’ during the event. The foundation would be launching a programme to create 100 forests in the State in May, Mr. Malpe said.

I cant comment on this issue coz its thier own will and wish.  I wish they should have used this gather to teach brotherhood / respect to every indian citizen / non voilence and love.   Organisers should preach good things to youngsters without getting influenced from any political or communal party.   Also, they should not force any one to sing Vande mataram as this is not compulsoryu as per our constitution.   Jana gana mana is our national anthem and not vande mataram.  No objection in singing vande mataram by anyone, but dont force others.   Show your patriotim by loving and respecting all indians and religions.   This is fundamental right of every citizen based on constitution.

Na TASYA Pratima ASTI... (There is no image of God) Those who support this, should understand that U are worshiping the motherland. There is no image of God and U make the motherland as God and make a mock out of God... We respect the motherland but we will never worship it as a God...  God is the creator of the motherland ... Bow only to the CREATOR of all that exists including the motherland.
