The Modi government used high-handed tactics to prevent the release of the Bucher Papers, a document containing promises of ceasefire and self-determination to Kashmiris made by the Nehru government.

In a report published in the British newspaper The Guardian, the hideous face of India, which claims to be the world’s largest democracy, was exposed.

The Guardian report revealed that Narendra Mishra, curator of the Nehru Museum, had requested the Modi government to release the Bucher Papers for research purposes in October 2022.

However, the Modi government flatly refused to allow the Bucher Papers to be made public. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs said that India may face serious political and external implications due to the release of this document.

It should be noted that this document includes the policy statement given by Prime Minister Nehru in the Lok Sabha after the ceasefire in Kashmir in 1952, in which he said that the decision of Kashmir will be decided by Kashmiris themselves. We will not impose our will on Kashmiris at gunpoint.

The British newspaper claimed that the morale of the Indian army and the government was low after the ceasefire and Nehru’s statement, on which the then Indian Army Chief General Butcher Roy advised Nehru to take the Kashmir issue to the United Nations. .

On the advice of the Army Chief, India went to the United Nations for a peaceful settlement of the Kashmir issue, but there too it was rejected and the decision came on the right of self-determination of the Kashmiris, but over time, India annexed Kashmir with itself.

By the way, India declassifies official correspondence and documents every 25 years, but first it suppressed the Bucher Papers, a document containing official correspondence between Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and Army Chief General Roy Bucher on Kashmir and ceasefire. is sitting

Several attempts have been made in the past by journalistic organizations and activists to make the Bucher Papers public.
