rabindranath tagore
""vande mataram" was the whole nation's thought and motto for independence [from british rule] during the indian independence movement. large rallies, fermenting initially in bengal, in the major metropolis of calcutta, would work themselves up into a patriotic fervour by shouting the slogan "vande mataram", or "i praise the mother(land)!" the british, fearful of the potential danger of an incited indian populace, banned the book and made the recital of the song a crime. the british colonial government imprisoned many independence activists for disobeying the order, but workers and general public repeatedly violated the ban many times by gathering together before british officials and singing it. rabindranath tagore sang "vande mataram" in 1896 at the calcutta congress session held at beadon square. dakhina charan sen sang it five years later in 1901 at another session of the congress at calcutta. poet sarala devi chaudurani sang the song in the benares congress session in 1905. lala lajpat rai started a journal called "vande mataram" from lahore. hiralal sen made india's first political film in 1905 which ended with the chant. matangini hazra's last words as she was shot to death by the crown police were "vande mataram".
