The Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (NMML) has undergone some recent changes. Here are the key points:
1. Renaming: In October 2020, the NMML was renamed as the 'Museum of Prime Ministers' by the Union Ministry of Culture.
2. Restructuring: The NMML is being restructured with an aim to focus on all Prime Ministers of India, instead of just Jawaharlal Nehru. This includes the inclusion of exhibits and information about other Prime Ministers.
3. Revamped Displays: The museum has updated its exhibits and displays to showcase the contributions and achievements of all Prime Ministers. This allows visitors to gain a broader understanding of India’s political history.
4. Digitization: The NMML is actively working on digitization projects to make its extensive collection of documents, photographs, and audiovisual materials accessible online. This move aims to reach a wider audience and preserve historical records.
5. Oral History Project: The museum has initiated an oral history project to record interviews with individuals who have worked closely with the Prime Ministers, offering valuable insights into their leadership and decision-making.
Overall, these recent changes in NMML aim to present a comprehensive narrative of India's Prime Ministers and their impact on the nation's history.
