Subh Sukh Chain "Subh Sukh Chain", was written by Capt. Abid Ali, and its score composed by Ram Singh Thakur. It took Vande Mataram's place as the official national anthem of the Provisional Government, and was sung at all meetings, including at the final assembly before Bose's departure. It is sometimes considered an Urdu version (Urdu: ) of the national anthem of India, "Jana Gana Mana", though its meaning varies from the latter and it is therefore not a true translation. On 24 January 1950, President Rajendra Prasad announced the final decision that Jana Gana Mana would be the national anthem of India.
Brazilian National Anthem broadcasts began in Brazil, and the first broadcast was the performance of the National Anthem with the new lyrics, followed by the speech by President Epitácio Pessoa, the first radio address by a Brazilian President. The national anthem is considered by the current Constitution of Brazil, adopted in 1988, to be one of the four national symbols of the country, along with the Flag, the Coat of Arms and the National Seal. The legal norms currently in force concerning the national anthem are contained in a statute passed in 1971 (Law 5.700 of 1 September 1971), regulating the national symbols.
