It's amazing how such people get elected by general people. Uneducated people inside the parliament is one of the major reasons why we are still underdeveloped. Anyone who is an India must respect the national song mentally and physically. I mean if "Vande Materam" is playing then an Indian should stand up in respect to the song. This is what we have learnt in schools.

Muslims have always had this about Vande Mataram because the word mataram is there which means mother nation, whereas they only respect and bow down before Allah...They fal to realise that nation and country is above everything else, religion being a personal issue ...when you have such sentiments you should nt be in politics or have anything to do with serving the country !

Ironically, such persons are rather over educated and do not adhere to social norms and propriety. The illiterate are better than such individuals.

This is a matter of shame, whatever the MP's religion may be, the moment he enters those hallowed portals of democracy,. he or she is expected to honour and respect all that stands for what is our country, including the National song. But this attitude of disrespecting the song just because it contains word mataram is a sign that as a country and that too, a democratic one, we still have not evolved and have a long way to go. Exactly the kind of attitude that shows the chinks in our integrity and unity and is the very achilles' heel that the other countries know of and take advantage of us! :blink: Truly shameful!
