The author of India's राष्ट्रगान, Rabindranath Tagore, is the only poet to have written the national anthems of two different countries: India and Bangladesh.
While राष्ट्रगान is the anthem, India also has a 'national song' called वन्दे मातरम् (Vande Mataram), which is treated with nearly equal reverence in official ceremonies.
The word राष्ट्र (nation) inside राष्ट्रगान is a Sanskrit loanword, making the phrase sound more prestigious and formal than everyday Hindi.
