Kerala School Drops Vande Mataram from I-Day Programme as Radical Group Objects

the more clear answer is that there is no room for this religious song even half century ago there was non .

Muslims in India are not others. its another matter that biased Hindus still dont consider these Muslims as Indians.

These Muslims are asked to prove nationalism by bowing down to Hindu rituals.

uhhhh muslims in india=Indians....We never indulge in that forced bow blah blah you are way more pre conceived about India..If stange incidents is the measuring yard stick come lets dig in to it on both sides..
.Where in my quote I said Muslim's as others?You genie 'others' was meant to point you ...
If an Indian cant bow to his Mother land surely you can have em be it Hindu or Muslim...Bowing is act of respect...non-followers are welcomed to leave...

NO this does not make them radicals.

Those who are insisting on imposing it are radicals .
Why dont you call them radicals ? just because they are Hindus.

By your logic Sikhs are also radicals? who opposed it.

anyway none of you came up with any reply why a hindu religious song be sung in Schools ?

Yes they are radicals, because they made a hue and cry about a performance which was supposed to be based on Vandematharam.....Why do you think they oppose it?..... No one is forced to sing along with the back ground music... There is a performance, you wanna watch it, watch it or walk away......I have not come across anyone (in my state) who was forced sing vandematharam.... It is not forced on people... But if some one want to sing no one can force to stop.....

SDPI are not radicals? I live in this land and as i told you i know their designs quite well.... They are facing a identity crisis right now, They are not getting the support from their own community, and some how they want to be relevant.....

In an incident that reeks of growing Taliban-like radicalism, a school in Kerala had to edit out the Vande Mataram song from its Independence Day programme on Friday, following threats from a political party that it is against the religious beliefs of a community.

The school management also reportedly asked students to not do the 'namaste', a common gesture of respect in India, in fear of threats from the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI).

According to Hindustan Times, the TKM Centenary School in Kollam was to have a dance planned on Vande Mataram, which is a popular song played as a patriotic symbol on days such as the Independence Day. However, the school management allegedly replaced the song with an orchestra to avert any incident, though the principal claims that the song was removed so as not to "stress" the students.

However, the SDPI claimed that they had asked the school to not play the song.

"We approached the school management after a number of parents complained that some words in Vande Matraam and the gesture 'namaste' were against their religious belief. We only requested the school to respect their sentiment," SDPI leader AK Salahuddin told HT.

SDPI was formed in 2009 as a political wing of the Popular Front of India, and has had a controversial run in Kerala, with the state police often raiding their offices on suspicion of arms and weapons stockpiling by the members. PFI and SDPI were also chargesheeted by the National Investigation Agency, indicating their role in conducting arms training camps, according to an India Todayreport.



There was controversy over Vande Mataram in 2009 as well, when Muslim outfit Jamait-e-Ulema Hind had issued a fatwa against the song and had banned Muslims from singing it, citing that some of the verses go against the tenets of Islam, as reported by The Times of India.

Secularism at work

A very sad day for India.

Secularism has nothing to do with this.

read my post again. then comment.

Bowing to idols indeed sends you out of my faith. simple as that .

There is no room for idols in my faith.

You did not answer me why vande mataram should be sing in schools?

As I said, singing the song is one's personal choice.. Just because some people find it offensive, we cannot ban it from singing.. If some one find it offensive, then dont sing it.. Many of us Indians find that song part of our freedom struggle and love to sing it.. Its as simple as that..
