The ongoing debate in both Houses over the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram has sparked controversy, with the Congress party alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his allies have been exposed for historical inaccuracies.

Congress spokesperson Jairam Ramesh emphasized that debates in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were held over three days, scrutinizing the national song and invoking nationalist sentiments.
