A song mix-up at a Maharashtra event has triggered a political controversy over India’s national song, Vande Mataram. A Lata Mangeshkar song was played instead, leading to criticism and a political war of words between the Congress and BJP. Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde apologised for the mix-up, but the incident has sparked a wider debate over protocol, politics and national symbols.
