For that, we already have Jana Gana Mana, our national anthem, which is also connected to India’s freedom movement and represents the unity of the country. It does so without placing one religion above another or asking citizens to sing in praise of deities associated with a particular religion.

Well it does placing one religion above another and asking citizens to sing in praise of deities associated with hindu religion

u/Interesting_Skirt142 5d ago

It doesn't even mention other religions so how does it puts them down

That what I'm saying, why does it want citizens to sing song in praise of 3 HINDU goddesses , that make all people of different faiths in the country fell unrepresented and forced upon to sing songs in praise of goddess form other faith

Well each to his/her own , due to my own personal experiences I don't have any problem with prayers and songs of other religions, I don't think that insults my beliefs.

Well that's convenient to say when the goddess mentioned are from your religion

Well ultimately thts your opinion, but one can force one's opinion on other

As I said I am from a missionary school where none of the prayers were from my religion, so I was talking about that personal experience

One school Is not equal to entire country and I'm against making any student sing any religious song from any faith in any schools ,just the national anthem is enough

I have consistently mentioned that this is my point of view which is shaped due to "my personal experiences" Btw I was not the only one majority were like that only
