The National Anthem was originally composed by India's first Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. It was first publicly sung on December 27, 1911 on the second day of the Indian National Congress session in Calcutta (now Kolkata). A formal rendition of the National Anthem takes approximately 52 seconds.
Jana Gana Mana was officially proclaimed as National Anthem of India by the Constituent Assembly of India on January 24, 1950.
