The Prime Minister’s Museum and Library (PMML) recently made a huge request to Congress MP Rahul Gandhi. These demands were associated with India’s first Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru. Former Prime Minister Nehru wrote many letters to many great people during that time, which were preserved in the Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial after his death. In 1971, it was donated to the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (now PMML). In 2008, these documents were packed into 51 cardboard boxes and delivered to Sonia Gandhi. PMML member Rizwan Qadri demanded the return of the documents through a letter from Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi.
