#AvtarSinghBhasin is a writer and historian. In this interview with Newslaundry’s Shardool Katyayan, he talks about his latest book #Nehru, Tibet and #China, which explores the backdrop of the 1962 Sino-Indian War and its aftermath.
Bhasin talks about the time and effort he spent researching the book, and how most government documents and records about the 1962 war are classified. “Since independence,” he says, “nothing has been thrown open though it is against the archival rules which suggest that these records should be made available after 25 years.”
