National Anthem of India.

The National Anthem.



Jana gaṇa mana adhināyaka jaya he
Bhārata bhāgya vidhātā
Pañjāba Sindhu Gujarāṭa Marāṭhā
Drāviḍa Utkala Vaṅga
Vindhya Himāchala Yamunā Gaṅgā
Ucchala jaladhi taraṅga
Tav śubha nāme jāge
Tav śubha āśiṣa māge
Gāhe taba jaya gāthā
Jana gaṇa maṅgala dāyaka jaya he
Bhārata bhāgya vidhāta
Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he
Jaya jaya jaya, jaya he!


Congratulations our dear National Anthem Jana Gana Mana.
Today the National Anthem turns a Hundred. Many Many Happy Return of the Day.
Poet Laureate Rabindra Nath Tagore penned the famous Jan Man Gana.
It was on this day today 27-12-1911 that Congress accepted it as a national symbol.
It was on 24th January that it was incorporated as Country’s National Anthem.
Full Honour and Etiquette is involved in the playing of the Anthem. These usually involve military honours, standing up, removing headwear etc.

National anthems are used in a wide array of contexts. They are played on national holidays and festivals, and have also come to be closely connected with sporting events. During sporting competitions, the national anthem of the gold medal winner is played at each medal ceremony in Olympic games.
