President of Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Arshad Madani (ANI) NEW DELHI: President of Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Arshad Madani on Thursday strongly criticised the Union Government’s decision to make all six stanzas of the national song ‘Vande Mataram’ compulsory at schools, colleges, and official functions, saying it reflects “electoral politics and a sectarian agenda.”In a post on X, Madani said, “The Central Government’s unilateral and coercive decision to make ‘Vande Mataram’ the national song and to mandate all its stanzas in all government programmes, schools, colleges, and functions is not only a blatant attack on the freedom of religion guaranteed by the Constitution of India but also a systematic attempt to curtail the constitutional rights of minorities.”He added that the move contradicts the fundamental belief of monotheistic religions and “forcing” a Muslim to sing the song is a clear violation of Article 25 of the Constitution.“Muslims do not prevent anyone from singing or playing ‘Vande Mataram’; however, some verses of the song are based on beliefs that portray the homeland as a deity, which contradict the fundamental belief of monotheistic religions. Since a Muslim worships only one Allah, forcing him to sing this song is a clear violation of Article 25 of the Constitution and several judgments of the Supreme Court. Making this song mandatory and attempting to impose it on citizens is not an expression of patriotism; rather, it reflects electoral politics, a sectarian agenda, and a deliberate effort to divert public attention from fundamental issues,” he added.His remarks came after the Union home ministry directed that all six stanzas of the national song Vande Mataram, written by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, shall be sung first whenever the national song and the national anthem Jana Gana Mana are played together.In an order dated 28 January, the home ministry issued the first set of protocols for singing the national song, specifying that all six stanzas, lasting 3 minutes and 10 seconds, shall be performed at official functions such as the arrival of the President, the unfurling of the national flag, and governors’ speeches.“When the national song and the national anthem are sung or played, the national song will be sung or played first,” the order stated. It also said that the assembly shall stand at attention when the national song is performed.“Whenever the official version of the national song is sung or played, the audience shall stand to attention. However, when the national song is played as part of a newsreel or documentary, the audience is not expected to stand, as doing so may interrupt the screening and create disorder rather than add to the dignity of the national song,” it added.The directives further specify that in schools, activities should begin with the playing of the national song.The move coincides with the 150th anniversary of the creation of Vande Mataram.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.

(ANI) NEW DELHI: District-wise data of deletions made in the final electoral roll of Assam published on Tuesday, show a decline in the electorate of 25 of the state’s 35 districts as compared to the draft roll.While Cachar district witnessed the maximum decline of electors in absolute terms, with a total 33,536 shaved off the draft list, Karimganj reported the maximum percentage of deletions, with 3.2% less electors as compared to the draft roll. As per data exclusively accessed by the TOI, Udalgiri and Darrang district had 2.7% electors struck off, while the deletions in Lakhimpur, Cachar and Kamrup Metro districts were around 2.4% each.Among the 10 districts where electors rose in number as compared to the draft list, Barpeta had the highest additions both in absolute (28,625) and percentage (3%) terms.Nagaon district now has the highest number of total electors at 15.5 lakh, followed by Cachar at 13.8 lakh. The districts with the smallest electorate are the tribal-dominated Dima Hasao, with less than 1.6 lakh electors ,and West Karbi Anglong with 2.3 lakh electors.Indicating the decisive role of women in choosing the next govt in Assam, female electors outnumber their male counterparts across 86 of the state’s total 126 assembly constituencies, even though the overall sex ratio of the state’s electorate (female voters per 1000 male voters) is 1000. Doom Dooma assembly constituency (AC) in Tinsukia district leads the way with a sex ratio of 1118, followed by Jalukbari AC in Kamrup Metro district at 1113 and Makum AC in Tinsukia at 1100. However, the sex ratio is most skewed against women in Algapur-Katlicherra AC in Hailakandi district at 910, followed by Chenga AC in Barpeta district at 918.As per the final electoral roll for Assam published on Tuesday after summary revision, the state’s total electorate stands at around 2.5 crore after the deletion of 0.97% electors included the draft list. The final electorate, however, is higher than the state’s 2.4 crore electorate in 2024 general elections.Unlike the special intensive revision (SIR) exercise undertaken in the other poll-bound states/UT of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal and Puducherry, summary revision does not involve filling up of enumeration forms or establishing a link with the electoral roll from the last SIR.
