Celebrating 150 Years of National Pride – Vande Mataram 🇮🇳

Paradip Port Authority proudly marks the Second Phase of the commemoration of Vande Mataram, celebrating 150 glorious years of our National Song that continues to inspire unity, patriotism, and national pride.

The second phase of the celebrations will be observed from 19th January to 26th January, reinforcing our collective commitment to the ideals that have shaped our nation.

The programme at the PPA Administrative Building was led by Shri P. L. Haranadh, Chairman, Paradip Port Authority, reaffirming PPA’s dedication to serving the nation with pride and purpose.

The Vibe: Historic. Chills. Pure, unfiltered patriotism.

The Quote: Colonel Rajyavardhan Rathore nailed it. He called ‘Vande Mataram’ the “heartfelt voice of India’s collective, eternal expression of devotion and power.”

Let that sink in. It’s not just a song. It’s our collective heartbeat.

The Scene: SMS Stadium, Jaipur. 150 years of the national song. The air was electric.

The Gratitude: Massive thanks to PM @narendramodi for initiatives that make us proud of our roots. And a billion salutes to the legend, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, for giving us this anthem.

The Moment: Honored to be part of this, in the presence of CM @BhajanlalBjp. The best part? Getting to honor our amazing athletes. Real-life champions being celebrated in the shadow of a historic champion of a song. Felt so right.

The Feels: This wasn’t just a ceremony. It was a reminder. A reminder of who we are, the devotion (Bhakti) we hold, and the strength (Shakti) we possess.
