How ‘Vande Mataram’ Became The Song Of ‘Fight For Freedom’

Vande Mataram, written by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, became a rallying cry during India’s freedom struggle. Its lyrics, praising the motherland, inspired millions to join the movement against British rule. The song, composed in 1870 and later adopted by the Indian National Congress in 1905, remains a symbol of patriotism and unity.
