Sindh remains in Jana Gana Mana

The Bombay high court on Wednesday said that as the Supreme Court already ruled that the word Sindh is correctly used in the national anthem, it shall remain. A division bench of Justice Ranjana Desai and Justice R G Ketkar was hearing a PIL filed by retired professor Shrikant Malushte. He said that Sindh, now a part of Pakistan, should be replaced with Sindhu(Indus). The judges said that on May 13, 2005, the SC confirmed the word Sindh will remain in the anthem. “The Supreme Court said that it is correctly used. It quoted the authentic text. We shall go by the SC’s ruling,” said Justice Desai.
