Rabindranath Tagore's 'Jana Gana Mana' had 5 stanzas. Only first stanza was adopted as National Anthem of #India 🇮🇳
Reason: Short, crisp, marching version.
Truth: India's Etonian elite feared their jaws would drop off if made to sing all 5 stanzas.
Listen:
Just as Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay's 'Vande Mataram' was reduced to its first stanza as our National Song by our Etonian elite because they could not tolerate the idea of worshipping the nation of #India 🇮🇳 ... and were scared their jaws would drop off.
Here is the story of the National Anthem of #India 🇮🇳
How 'Jana Gana Mana' (then known as the 'Morning Song of India') journeyed from its birth as a Brahmo Sangeet sung during morning prayer service, to its truncated adoption as our National Anthem.

This August 14 we will be observing the first 'Partition Horrors Remembrance Day', a day dedicated for this purpose by PM @narendramodi last year.
All who suffered the horrors of Partition in 1947 and Hindu refugee legatees should participate in the observance of this day.
1.
Just as Holocaust Day is a day of collective remembrance, of ensuring memories remain, of prayers, and of reaffirming the resolution 'Never Again', our Partition Horrors Remembrance Day should bring together our nation, at home and abroad, for remembrance and reaffirmation.
2.
The Horrors of Partition have not quite come to an end. The persecution of Hindus and other minorities continues in our neighbourhood.
Hence remembrance is important. Like Holocaust horrors, Partition horrors must not be forgotten. Some wounds never heal. Remembrance helps.

Expressway to Prosperity!
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a leader we all know
Who shines white light to show
How Expressways turn to gold…
(Led Zep rewrite)

n2
PM @narendramodi is committed to rapidly enhancing connectivity across #India, taking forward the ABV era Golden Quadrilateral and making up for the lost decade of UPA. For Modi Ji, roads like #BundelkhandExpressway are the stairway to nation’s prosperity, progress and power.

The Cold War is remembered (apart from other things) for Checkpoint Charlie types — men wearing dark glasses, hunched, their faces hidden behind upturned collars and pulled down hats, ears never visible. Men who came in from the cold, their past erased, their identities forged. 1
Such men with their past erased and their identities forged in a manner no agency could figure out who exactly was the person who had come in from the cold, were products of the Deep State on either side of the Iron Curtain. Like robots, they were programmed to tell nothing. 2
The Iron Curtain no longer exists, the Cold War is long over, the new geography of 1990s has turned old and Checkpoint Charlie is now a selfie point in Berlin. But the Deep State remains unaffected, unchanged. If anything, it is more sophisticated than ever. 3

Prime Minister @narendramodi will be in #Deoghar today.
Baba Baidyanath’s city has been host to many eminent Indians, among them Rishi Rajnarayan Basu, educator, scholar, leading light of the Indian Renaissance, maternal grandfather of Sri Aurobindo.
n1 Image
Rishi Rajnarayan Basu penned one of the most definitive books on Hinduism — ‘Hindu Dharmer Shreshthata’ (Greatness of Hindu Dharma). A prominent Brahmo Samaji of his time and member of Sanjibani Sabha, he inaugurated Nabagopal Mitra's ‘Hindu Mela’ to promote nationalism.
n2 Image
Rishi Rajnarayan Basu’s nationalism was anchored in India’s civilisation and its inevitable rise again:
“I see this rejuvenated nation again illumining the world by her knowledge, spirituality, culture, and the glory of the Hindu nation again spreading over the whole world.”
