Vande Mataram should be made optional: Tharoor
Thiruvananthpuram: Union minister for state for external affairs Shashi Tharoor, who has penchant for controversy, has called for making the national song, 'Vande Mataram', optional.
"We've had an unseemly controversy in north about the national song, Vande Mataram. I've always tried to explain to people, yes, the national anthem and the national flag stand high in our Constitution. There are laws protecting them. The national song, like the national sport, is optional. Sing it out of respect for the motherland. Do not sing it if you do not want to. No one forces you," Tharoor said addressing a gathering at the CSI Christ Church here on November 15. The event was in connection with 150 years of the church.
Tharoor's comments gain significance in Kerala in light of the furore over Jamiat-e-Ulema Hind's fatwa against Vande Mataram being sung by Muslims. According to clerics, certain verses of the song composed by late Bankimchandra Chattopadhyay were against Islam's tenets. The BJP was quick to slam Tharoor.

The foreigners like Tharoor are not to be blamed for such utterances,as he dont know a b c d of Indian culture & philosophy.
I will advise him to first study the Vedas & Puranas & also the cultural philosophy,so that he may understood the real soul of Indian people.

The person who robbed us
The person who robbed us with our hard earned money for his lavish lifestyle and thrown out of the hotel upon investigation is our minister. What moral does he have to talk about the nation building ? He is a bloody shameless Creature and just for the sake of minority vote is uttering nonsence. You shameless creature Practice what your preach.
Characters like Tharoor have
Characters like Tharoor have no other work than to get into controversies. the immature minister who has no exposure to realities commented on Vademataram issue. It is sad that such immature guys are given cabinet posts which they do not deserve. He tries to get cheap popularity by indulging in such nonsense. Such men should be snubbed severly never to open the trap

Tharoor has apparently no
Tharoor has apparently no work except to stroke passions. Earlier he was involved in the general class issue in air crafts. Such immature ministers should be removed from cabinet as they do not deserve to be there. He is resorting to cheap gimmicks for gaining popularity. It is disgusting to have such men at the helm of affairs. It is tragic in India that guys who are unfit for even a post in panchayats are given ministerial berths. Such things are possible only in India where shit pot democracy works
