For other uses of the term Bande Mataram, see Bande Mataram (disambiguation).

Cover of the Bande Mataram following Madanlal Dhingra's execution in August 1909.

The Bande Mataram was a nationalist publication from Paris begun in September 1909 by the Paris Indian Society. Founded by Madam Bhikaji Cama the paper along with the later publication of Talvar was aimed at inciting nationalist unrest in India and sought to sway the loyalty of the Sepoy of the British Indian Army. It was founded in response to the British ban on Bankim Chatterjee's nationalist poem of Vande mataram, and continued the message of The Indian Sociologist that had earlier been published from London.
