The BJP on Monday asked Congress leader Sonia Gandhi to return the correspondences of India’s first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru with a host of personalities to the Prime Ministers’ Museum and Library, saying the historical documents were not anyone’s personal property.

BJP MP and spokesperson Sambit Patra cited reports of the Prime Ministers’ Museum and Library’s (PMML) deliberations on the issue to note that Nehru’s correspondences with Edwina Mountbatten, wife of the last British viceroy to India, and eminent leaders Jayaprakash Narayan and Jagjivan Ram lay with the erstwhile Nehru Museum and Library Society, which returned them to Gandhi in 2008.
