India's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) lawmaker Raja Singh copied the anthem released by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) ahead of March 23 Pakistan Day celebrations.
The development surfaced on social media after the Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) of India tweeted about it on the micro-blogging site on April 12.
Singh duplicated the anthem except "Pakistan Zindabad" chants were replaced with "Hindustan Zindabad". The track recognised the sacrifices of the Indian military for safeguarding the nation and its people.
