vande mataram song was first time sung in which revolution?
indian independence movement
""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".
vande mataram
mahatama gandhi supported adoption and the singing of the vande mataram song. in january 1946, in a speech in guwahati (assam), he urged that "jai hind should not replace vande-mataram". he reminded everyone present that vande-mataram was being sung since the inception of the congress. he supported the "jai hind" greeting, but remanded that this greeting should not be to the exclusion of vande mataram. gandhi was concerned that those who discarded vande mataram given the tradition of sacrifice behind it, one day would discard “jai hind” also.
