The journal named ‘Vande Mataram’ was run by freedom fighters
Both the freedom fighters Bipin Chandra Pal and Lala Lajpat Rai started journals in 1906 by the same name Vande Mataram independently at two different parts of the country. Pal started the Bengali journal in Bengal while Lala Lajpat Rai started it in Urdu in Lahore.
