Our National anthem Jana Gana Mana was sung by Ravindranath Tagore to please British queen! Vande Mataram should have been our National anthem! but we Indians are unlucky! Because at that time congress were ruling India and they knew that Muslims will never accept Vande Mataram as national anthem.
So to keep both Muslims and British government happy they rejected Vande Matam and kept Jana Gana Mana as our National anthem! dear friends please read our history and correct misunderstanding about Ravindranath Tagore! In rewards Britishers gave him Nobel Prize!

Jana Gana Mana is the national anthem of India. It was originally composed as Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata in Bengali by polymath Rabindranath Tagore. The first stanza of the song Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata was adopted by the Constituent Assembly of India as the National Anthem on 24 January 1950.

Actually the whole songs has been adopted as India's National Anthem. But for our convenience we are taking only the first stanza has been taken as India's National Anthem.

Whenever I will hear this song, I would have thought the national leaders and salute them. So this song gives us the memories of our freedom strugglers.

Vande mataram should have been accepted as national anthem. Jana Gana Mana is for eulogising the british queen the bharat bhagya vidhata at that time.
