AIMPLB Calls Vande Mataram Bill Unconstitutional, Asserts Muslims Cannot View Country as Deity

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board opposes the new bill making disrespect to Vande Mataram a punishable offense. The board claims this law violates constitutional values and religious freedoms. They argue patriotism should not be measured by reciting specific songs. Instead, they suggest the government should focus on essential issues like poverty, unemployment, and social justice for everyone.
