Question

Apart from India's national anthem, Tagore wrote the national anthem of which other country?

Hint:

This neighbouring country became independent from Pakistan in 1971.

Answer 1

Correct answer: Bangladesh.

Rabindranath Tagore wrote 'Jana Gana Mana', which became the national anthem of India. He is also credited with writing 'Amar Shonar Bangla', which was later adopted as the national anthem of Bangladesh after its independence in 1971. This makes Tagore the only person in history to have written the national anthems of two different countries.
