Nothing wrong if one doesn’t recite Vande Mataram, says Modi govt’s minister

Thane, Aug 1: Union minister Ramdas Athawale has said there was nothing wrong if one didn't recite the national song 'Vande Mataram.'

Athawale, the leader of Republican Party of India (A), said the issue of the national song was being brought out deliberately to cause feud among communities.

"Everybody should recite Vande Mataram, but if it is not recited what will go wrong?" he asked, while addressing the Maharashtra Gramin Patrakar Sangh's 11th anniversary at Kalyan near here yesterday.

"If one does not recite Vande Mataram nothing is wrong in that," said the minister of state for social justice and empowerment.

The Madras high court recently made singing 'Vande Mataram' compulsory in all government schools, colleges and universities in Tamil Nadu at least once a week.

A BJP MLA in Maharashtra recently demanded the implementation of the ruling in schools and colleges of the state, sparking a political slugfest with legislators of some other parties opposing any such move.

Rightly said.

Partriotism is not by force, not by singing any song, or not by showing anything.

It is the love for the people of the nation.

If this is missing, he or she is not nationalist.

 

Singing the vande mataram, it is a debatable subject. If one has no objection of its contents, no problem to sing.

But still it is up to him to sing or not to sing. Not by force.

If anybody of the opinion to sing it, then will they read holy books all other religions and will they follow it.

 

No, not possible to do it. Therefore dont force to sing.

The truth is,  ISLAM is purely based believing in 1 and only Go.

That is  ONE-NESS OF GOD. Anything contradicts the 1ness is unforgivable sin.

There is no other sin above it. This is the strong principle of ISLAM. Muslims are ready for any sacrifices to follow it.

Unfortunately Most of the people even Many Muslims dont know it.

It is better to know the principle of every religion. It does not mean to follow it.

But knowing the fact can help to clear many doubts.

 

May God help.

Ghaziabad, Jul 28: Days ahead of Eid-ul-Adha, Nand Kishore Gurjar, a BJP MLA from Loni assembly constituency in Ghaziabad, has stoked controversy as he asked people celebrating the festival to "sacrifice their children instead of animals" on the occasion. He also claimed that "meat spreads coronavirus" so people should not be allowed to sacrifice innocent animals.

"People who want to sacrifice on Eid should sacrifice their children. I will not let people consume meat and alcohol in Loni. We will not let people sacrifice innocent animals because meat spreads coronavirus," the BJP legislator said while speaking to reporters.

"The way people have followed the guidelines of the government by not offering prayers and namaz at temples and mosques to contain COVID-19, in the same way, they must not give the sacrifice of animals on this Eid," he added.

"Earlier, sacrifices of animals used to be done in Sanatan Dharam as well. However, now coconut is offered instead. I request the Muslim brothers not to give 'qurbani' of animals. We will stop those who will perform the ritual animal sacrifice. We will not let this happen in Loni," he said.
