The National Archives of India (NAI) complex is slated for major changes
under the Central Vista Project. Conflicting reports indicate that the
heritage structure that is part of the National Archives complex will be
retained but that additions to the original plot will be demolished
later in the project. The lack of clarity around the plans for
preservation, transfer and access of these national records is a cause
for concern. While the Minister of Culture stated on Thursday that the
government will “continue to keep the records safely,” his statement
focuses on the retention of the heritage building, and does not mention
the demolition of the Annexe building, which reportedly houses several
public records, private papers, departmental records etc. This further
highlights the need for public scrutiny.
