	Mataram Kingdom
		It was known as Hindu Mataram Kingdom which had ruled this region from 8th to 10th century AD.
		The Mataram kingdom I, moved from Central Java to East Java, probably due to destructive eruption of MOUNT Merapi, which had ruined and covered with ash and debris several temples such as Borobudur, Sambisari, etc. Some scientist analyzed that removal of the power center eastward was due to internal wars between the rulers.
		The capital of Mataram had been moved several times, in 1647 by Amangkurat I to Plered (nearby Kerta), in 1680 by Amangkurat II to Kartosuro (10 km) west of Solo,in 1743 by Pakubuwono II to the bank of river Solo.

	The history and politics of Vande Mataram, The Milli Gazette, Vol.5 No.09, MG103 (1-15 May 04)
		Both Hindus and Mussalmans carried Vande Mataram flags."3 It is interesting to know that while Vande Mataram was banned in Bengal, the British government allowed the Bengali Regiment to attack German trenches during the first world war with Vande Mataram on their lips.
		Vande Mataram glorified idol worship, they argued, as it referred to only Hindu deities (it must be shocking for the present-day Hindutva brigade that the song does not even once refer to Ram), and that it expressed only a regional aspiration (it is partly in Bengali and allegorically talks of “Bengal” as India).
		Another objection raised by Muslims and secular Indians said that Vande Mataram was part of the novel Anandmath, which glorified the annihilation of Muslims and not the British rule in India.

	Vande Mataram
		The extraordinary specialty of Vande Mataram in terms of the potentials in the words speaks the story of its tremendous impact on patriotic minds.
		Utterance of the words ‘Vande Mataram’ gave freedom fighters and the common public the strength to withstand lathi blows on their heads and whiplashes on their open bodies.
		The national sin of deprivation of the ‘Vande Mataram' as the National song from its lawful place has been committed because of these two, means this song only in the silly pretext of music became the victim of politics and Nehru ideology.

	How secular is Vande Mataram?
		"During the long and arduous struggle for freedom from 1905 to 1947 'Bande Mataram' was the rallying cry of the patriotic sons of India, and thousands of them succumbed to the lathi blow of the British police or mounted the scaffold with 'Bande Mataram' on their lips.
		The use of the song 'Vande Mataram' in the novel is not adventitious, and it is not only communal-minded Muslims who resent it because of its context and content.
		It seemed therefore that while 'Vande Mataram' should continue to be the national song par excellence in India, the national anthem tune should be that of 'Jana Gana Mana', the wording of 'Jana Gana Mana' to be suitably altered to fit in with the existing circumstances.

	Vande Mataram
		In 1948, when he learnt that Pandit Nehru was against the music of the song and not the contents, he volunteered to prepare tunes that would conform to guidelines similar to those laid down by the British.

	The Acorn » In defence of the right not to sing Vande Mataram
		It is undoubtable that the fatwa against the singing of Vande Mataram (via DesiPundit) by Muslim clerics in Hyderabad is motivated by, and is a manifestation of, the phenomenon of competitive intolerance that has found purchase in contemporary India.
		Gaurav, you need to go and get a lesson on Vande Mataram, either you have blind faith that Vande Mataram is a song of national pride or you have the blind faith that if a Muslim cleric has said what he has then he is wrong.
		Singing Vande Mataram for me and am sure for most of us is not free choice, it was the only choice, it was a choice imposed upon us and we happily accepted because we never bothered to check what it meant.

	A.R. Rahman : Vande Mataram - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		"Vande Mataram" became a Sanskit rallying cry for freedom in the early 1900s, as Indians protested against the partitioning of Bengal and its use as the title for the first international release by Ar Rahman, one of India's most popular contemporary recordings artists, is appropriate.
		Vande Mataram was released to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of India's independence from colonial Britain and it also was designed to introduce the western world, particularly the United States, the wonders of modern Indian music and culture.
		Rahman is a clever, skilled composer and for this record, he blends Indian music with worldbeat, new age and light dance music, creating an accessible amalgam that nevertheless sounds exotic.

	Many Muslims may choose to sing Vande Mataram' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Muslims are equal citizens of the country and if a sectarian and narrow Hindu nationalist opinion seeks to inflict the singing of a sectarian song to an extent that democratic freedom is compromised, then not opposing it would do greater harm.
		Both Muslim leaders, who have raked up the bogey of Islam being opposed to singing of Vande Mataram, and the Bharatiya Janata Party and its like-minded parties like the Shiv Sena, who are insisting that the singing of Vande Mataram signifies patriotism, are equally motivated by interests.
		Second, if they are opposed to the singing of Vande Mataram -- the Constitution gives them the right to do so -- they should show their opposition in strictly secular and democratic terms and not in Hindu-Muslim terms.

		It was an act of misuse of an Indian pen in accordance with the divide-and-rule policy of the British.
		Hence, Chatterjee’s emission of venom against the Muslims in Anand Math and the Song Vande Mataram was not propelled by his love for India, but by Brahminism of which he was a part.
		Therefore he had conceived Anand Math against the Muslims and coined the Vande Mataram song in order to misguide the gullible people in the name of Goddesses into the trap of Brahminism, which, besides serving his class interest, was designed to fetch British support against the class enemies of the Brahmins of his orientation.
