Nagaland MLAs challenge central order to sing full "Vande Mataram," citing constitutional rights and religious concerns.
Several Nagaland MLAs objected to the central government’s directive requiring the full six-stanza version of "Vande Mataram" to be sung before the national anthem, citing constitutional protections under Article 371A and concerns over religious freedom in the predominantly Christian state.
They referenced a 1986 Supreme Court ruling stating the song is not compulsory and urged the assembly to form a Select Committee to review the directive.
The committee will assess the issue in light of legal, cultural, and religious considerations, with Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio supporting a balanced, constitutionally sound resolution.
