The fascinating story of how Rabindranath Tagore’s rousing tribute to the dispenser of India’s destiny, the song which played a historic part in our struggle for freedom, was accorded the
grand status on January 24, 1950 by the Constituent Assembly "The composition consisting of the words and music known as Jana Gana Mana is the National Anthem of India, subject to such
alterations in the words as the Government may authorise as occasion arises; and the song Vande Mataram, which has played a historic part in the struggle for Indian freedom, shall be
honoured equally with Jana Gana Mana and shall have equal status with it. I hope this will satisfy the Members." With these words, Dr Rajendra Prasad, then president of the Constituent
Assembly, and later the President of India, adopted the first stanza of the poem Jana Gana Mana as National Anthem on January 24, 1950. Poet and Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore originally
wrote Jana Gana Mana in five stanzas. The original verses were a rousing tribute to Bharata Bhagya Vidhata—the dispenser of India’s destiny—and celebrates the victory of that vidhata.
