Thanks! Your participation is sincerely appreciated! I know what you are saying is quite true, but it pertains only to the people who have attended the School. How about the people who never attended any school and so they have been deprived of learning our National Anthem. These so called illiterate people can by heart Movie songs and sing them without a single mistake! If young people start teaching these people about the National anthem and its meaning along with its importance, I think then this would be one of the constructive jobs they would be undertaking without spending any thing from their pocket, for the betterment of our Society? What do you feel about the idea?

Most people I know here in England probably know the same amount as me.

Good ! It is natuarlly expected from an avearage literate Indian that he/she must know the National Anthem by heart as we are throughly trained to do so in our schools ! My idea was to see the reponse from the persons out side India ! Thanks for your kind response ! Keep it Up ! all the best !

Yes, I know.
Well, I explain better. My National Anthem, Fratelli d'Italia (Brothers of Italy), is very long, but in competitions they only play only the first part that I know all by heart.

Nice to know that you know your National Anthem! In my opinion one should know the National anthem as it invokes the feeling of patriotism and love for the country in which one lives! Yes normally whenever the National Anthem is longer only one stanza is played in the ceremonies held at Competitions! Thanks a lot for sharing!
