Take voting right away for not singing Vande Mataram: Sena
Shiv Sena called for revoking the voting rights of anyone who refuses to sing Vande Mataram in its mouthpiece Saamana. It asserted, "PM Narendra Modi has strongly reined in the gaurakshaks on a rampage, but not singing Vande Mataram is an equally serious issue." Notably, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation passed a motion making singing Vande Mataram compulsory in all civic schools.
