India’s national anthem is Jana Gana Mana. Rabindranath Tagore, a Bengali polymath, originally wrote it as Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata. On January 24, 1950, the Constituent Assembly of India adopted the first stanza of the song Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata as the National Anthem. The national anthem is performed in a formal manner for 52 seconds.A condensed version of the first and last lines (which takes about 20 seconds to perform) is often performed on occasion. It was first performed publicly on December 27, 1911, at the Indian National Congress’s Calcutta Session.
