Jahan Bagcha Teesta Rangeet (Where Teesta and Rangeet Flow) is the traditional anthem of Sikkim, India.
History
[edit]The Kingdom of Sikkim became a British protectorate in 1860 and following Indian independence in 1947, became a protectorate of India in 1950. During this period, Sikkim was an absolute monarchy ruled by a monarch known as the Chogyal. During this period, the national anthem of Sikkim was Denjong Silé Yang Chagpa Chilo (Why is Sikkim Blooming So Fresh and Beautiful?).[1][2]
Jahan Bagcha Teesta Rangeet was released 4 April 1970 to mark the birthday of the then Chogyal Palden Thondup Namgyal. Following a referendum in 1975, Sikkim became a state of India and the monarchy was abolished. The song was initially prohibited by the Indian authorities as it contained a reference to the Sikkemese monarchy. It was later reinstated with slightly altered lyrics which replaced the words "king and queen" with "motherland".[3][4] Nowadays, the song is used as the de facto state song for Sikkim, played at state government functions.[5][6][7][8]
