The BJP passed a formal resolution on August 22, 2026, condemning the Congress party's decision to sing only two stanzas of the national song, Vande Mataram.
The resolution, which follows recent political debates, vows a nationwide protest against what the party describes as a compromise on the national song's honour.
BJP leaders have demanded a full rendition of the song at all official events, citing historical precedents and nationalistic sentiment as the core of their stance.
