Historian says records on first PM, including his letters to Lady Mountbatten, withdrawn on orders of Sonia Gandhi
HISTORIAN and a member of the Prime Minister's Museum and Library (PMML) Society Rizwan Kadri has sought intervention of Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi for retrieving documents, which were part of the Jawaharlal Nehru collections.
Kadri claimed that several historical records related to the first Prime Minister of the country including his letters to Lady Mountbatten were withdrawn on the instructions of Sonia Gandhi in 2008.
The issue was also raised in the Lok Sabha on Monday. Puri BJP MP Sambit Patra, during Question Hour, said that the records were important to understand the history of India and appealed to the culture ministry to probe the matter and bring back the documents to the museum.
In response, Union Culture Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said that he had noted the suggestion and action could be taken in the matter.
