Conflict arose between BJP and Congress leaders regarding the renaming of the Nehru Museum in Delhi

The renaming of the famous Nehru Memorial Museum and Library Society in Delhi as Prime  Minister's Museum and Library Society at Teen Murti Bhavan happened just a year after the inauguration of the Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya on the premises of the same building. It had served as the official home of India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru.

This incident has created a lot conflicts of opinions between the BJP and Congress leaders. Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Jairam Ramesh accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party saying he is trying to decrease the contributions made by the country's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.

Those who do not have any historical background, they are trying to erase the history of others. The unnecessary attempt to change the name of the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library cannot belittle the personality and contributions of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. He was the architect of modern India and fearless guardian of democracy, Mr Kharge stated.

Mr Ramesh strongly objected to PM Modi's projection as the "Vishwaguru". "... What won't Mr Modi do to distort, disparage and destroy the name and legacy of the architect of the Indian nation-state? A small, small man overburdened by his insecurities is the self-styled Vishwaguru," Mr Ramesh tweeted.

The BJP  defending the renaming of the museum  told the Congress to stop politicising the matter. BJP chief JP Nadda called the Congress's attack "a classic example of political indigestion".

He further stated that it shows Congress  inability to accept a simple fact that there are leaders beyond one dynasty who have served, contributed and built our nation. PM Sangrahalaya is an attempt beyond politics and Congress has no vision to realise this.

Mr Singh, welcomed the proposal of renaming the museum and said  in its new form the institution depicts the contributions of all Prime Ministers, from Jawaharlal Nehru to PM Modi.

The Defence Minister called Prime Ministership an institution and compared the journeys of past Prime Ministers to the colours of a rainbow. "All the colours of a rainbow have to be proportionately represented in order to make it beautiful," he commented.
