Research
The Research Section undertakes various projects to publish the speeches and writings of prominent national leaders in the form of Selected Works. It involves careful selection of relevant documents, annotations and preparation of typescripts. So far we have completed the projects of Selected Works of Motilal Nehru, Selected Works of Acharya Narendra Deva and Selected Works of Jayaprakash Narayan. At present, work on the Selected Works of C. Rajagopalachari, Selected Works of Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Selected Works of Syama Prasad Mookerjee are being carried out by the section. For these projects, the Section primarily utilizes the private paper collections preserved at the NMML.
Areas of Research
Selected Works of Atal Bihari Vajpayee
Atal Bihari Vajpayee is known in Indian politics, not only for his political skills but also for his multifaceted personality and open heartedness. Besides holding prominent political positions, including that of the Prime Minister of India, he remained the ‘Voice of Opposition’ for nearly forty years of his political life. The Nehru Memorial Museum and Library has commissioned a project for the publication of Selected Works of Atal Bihari Vajpayee in 2019. The Project will be carried out in two parts; part one would comprise of a collection of speeches and debates of Atal Bihari Vajpayee in the Parliament and part two will be a collection of writings and speeches of Atal Bihari Vajpayee outside the Parliament.
