==Overview==

Nehru Memorial Museum and Library famously known as Teen Murti Bhawan (Sculptor:Leonard Jennings of Britain), after the 3 statues which were established in 1922 in honor of the three Indian princely states, namely; Jodhpur, Hyderabad & Mysore after there contribution in World War I by serving in present day Gaza Strip, Israel, Palestine, etc., was designed by the famous Robert Tor Russell who also designed Connaught Place and few parts of Janpath. Spread in 30 acres its construction started in 1929 and took around one year to completion. It is a masterpiece of British and French architecture and woodwork. Initially knows as Flagstaff House, it was used by British Forces as the residence of the Commander-in-Chief. After Independence, the house was taken over as the residence of Jawaharlal Nehru (1889–1964), 1st Prime Minister of India. After his death in 1964, it was decided that Teen Murti Bhawan should be converted into a museum and a library which would promote original research in modern Indian History with special reference to the Nehruvian era.
Nehru Memorial Museum and Library Society was formed on 1 April 1966. Initially, the Museum was set up in the eastern wing and the Library in the western wing of the sprawling building, with Bal Ram Nanda as its founder-director, who also curated the museum and library for next 17 years. He received the Padma Vibhushan in 2003.〔(BALRAM NANDA (1917-2010) ) Raj Bhavan (Sikkim), 1 June 2010〕 With the passage of time and the rapid growth of research material in the Library, more space was required and an exclusive Library building was constructed. It was formally inaugurated by the then President, V. V. Giri, in January 1974. However, the steady increase in the volume of material required for research further necessitated the construction of an annex building which was completed in 1989. The Centre for Contemporary Studies was set up in this building as a new unit in 1990.
To commemorate the Foundation Day of the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library. It has been organising an Annual Lecture on 1 April every year, and named it Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Foundation Day Lecture. Nehru Planetarium is also part of N.M.M.L. (famously known among locals). Additionally, much work is also happening in the field of connecting people with this place with special reference to children, who are considered to be closest to Jawaharlal Nehru's heart, earning the popular name 'Chacha Nehru'. The library also has an archive of the private correspondence between Nehru and Edwina Mountbatten, wife of Lord Mountbatten, but with limited access.〔
The 'Centre for Contemporary Studies' was set up as an advanced studies unit of NMML in 1990 and is housed in the Annexe building. NMML took over the charge of the Nehru Planetarium from the ‘Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Fund’ in 2005.
