Replying to a query whether the national anthe𓂃m should be sung in madrassas in Madhya Pradesh as well, state BJP president Sharma said, "We are not asking anyone to sing the national anthem in Pakistan.

"If such a thing is happening and such a decision has been꧟ taken, then it is a welcome step," he said.
