  • The Prime Ministers' Museum and Library (PMML) has officially requested the return of personal letters written by India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, which were sent to Congress leader Sonia Gandhi in 2008 during the UPA government.

The article discusses a controversy involving the Prime Ministers' Memorial and Museum (PMM) in New Delhi, where the museum's director has written to Rahul Gandhi, requesting the return of letters written by Jawaharlal Nehru to his daughter Indira Gandhi. These letters, which were part of the museum's collection, were reportedly taken by Sonia Gandhi, Rahul's mother, when she vacated the Teen Murti House, the former residence of Nehru. The letters are significant as they were published in the book "Letters from a Father to His Daughter." The museum's request has sparked a political debate, with critics accusing the BJP-led government of targeting the Gandhi family, while supporters argue for the preservation of historical artifacts in their rightful place. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between the ruling party and the opposition Congress party, with implications for how historical legacies are managed and perceived in Indian politics.
