Meaning Of Indian National Anthem
Image copyright Getty Images Image caption Tagore was the first Asian to win the Nobel Prize for literature More than a century after it was first sung in the eastern city of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), the song that later became India's national anthem is again mired in a worn-out controversy. On Tuesday, the governor of Rajasthan state Kalyan Singh, a veteran BJP leader, pulled an old chestnut out of the fire by saying that Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore's Jana Gana Mana, had actually praised the British rulers. He said the phrase adhinayak jai he, which literally translates as 'hail the leader' should be removed and replaced with mangaldayak, which means the 'welfare giver'. His even made it to the front page of a prominent newspaper. He is not alone.
Former Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju wrote recently that Jana Gana Mana, which became India's national anthem in 1950, was 'composed and sung as an act of sycophancy' to, the only British king-emperor to travel to India. Mr Katju even offered some dubious evidence to support his thesis: the song was 'composed at precisely the time of the visit' of the British king in December 1911, it does not 'indicate any love for the motherland', the 'lord or ruler' and the 'dispenser of India's destiny' (another phrase in the song) in 1911 were the British rulers, and it was sung for the first time at a conference in Kolkata of the Congress party, which was held to welcome the king. The song, written in Sanskritised Bengali, has had its: some say it is deferential to the British monarchy; others say it fails to fully reflect India's races and regions. But historians believe the claim about the song being a glowing testimonial to the British rulers by Tagore - the first Asian to win the Nobel Prize for literature and a patriot, who resigned his knighthood in protest against in British history - is disingenuous. Historian Sabyasachi Bhattacharya, who has written a definitive book on Tagore, believes that this 'myth about the song' needs to be 'refuted and laid to rest'. Tagore wrote the song on 11 December 1911.
