KEY POINTS
· 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.
· The absence of public consultations and the aggressive pursuit of the Central Vista project during a national crisis raises important questions not just about the future of historical research.
· Archives are essential to the relationship between a state and its citizens. The production, storage, and use of information about the population is central to the work of governance.
· The National Archives’ website as of today has no notification about the pending demolition, plans for the safe removal of materials and any indication of how long access might be cut off for the public.
· The pandemic has highlighted the historically constituted regional inequalities.
· In a sense, we collectively imagine the archive as a place for verification, for evidentiary exploration, for empirical robustness, to support the frame of our present reality.
