Govt Urges Sonia Gandhi to Return Nehru Documents

The government of India has asked Sonia Gandhi, the former president of the Congress party, to return some important documents and letters of India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.

These documents were kept in a museum for safekeeping but were taken back by Sonia Gandhi's family in 2008.

The government says these documents belong to the country and should be returned to the Prime Ministers' Museum and Library.

Sonia Gandhi has said she will look into the matter.

The government is also working on digitizing many old documents and manuscripts to preserve them for future generations.
