Acharya Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, the Peethadhishwar of Bageshwar Dham, on Thursday proposed that the national song “Vande Mataram” be sung after the Aarti in both temples and mosques. He believes this practice would help identify true patriots and differentiate them from anti-nationals.
“In temples and even in mosques, Vande Mataram should be sung. If this is implemented, it will clearly show who are true patriots and who are anti-nationals,” he told to ANI.
Shastri further added that this initiative would not only instil patriotism but also bring clarity to the intentions and loyalties of people,
Shastri said that such steps could foster national unity and strengthen bonds among citizens, transcending religious barriers.
“This Hindu spirit is growing and becoming a unique identity. There is a surge of fervent Hindus, reminiscent of the atmosphere during the time of independence. The current environment is one of Hindu unity. People are excited and participating enthusiastically. We feel truly revitalised,” he added.
