Dear Pavan,
Apparently some historians claim there is controversy on the date Menon went to and returned with Kashmir in his pocket.
My present focus is not on the document itself since I don't think anybody would seriously claim that what the National Archives (allegedly) showed Venkatesh Nayak is the actual J&K Instrument of Accession and since it is clearly only a copy of a file copy and also seems to be an uncertified copy because Venkatesh did not apply for the document itself in RTI but only took a 'kuccha' copy from the file during the course of his inspection.Apparently some historians claim there is controversy on the date Menon went to and returned with Kashmir in his pocket.

Dear Sarbajit,
Mountbatten was not on the scene when the letter was signed by the Maharaja in Srinagar. It was VP Menon who got it signed and returned to Delhi the same day by an air force plane. He even boasted to a friend over a drink, I have Kashmir in my pocket. Col Pavan Nair.

Sarbajit RoyBecause I am concerned that "The Wire" and/or "CHRI" are being used by Mr. Nayak who works closely with Mr. Syed Sharfuddin(the London based former Pakistan Foreign Service diplomat who established CHRI), I would request both of you, jointly or severally, to kindly immediately upload only the actual IoA of J&K which bears the official seal of Lord Mountbatten and stop circulating such forgeries which will aid India's foes.I am disturbed to read the article in "TheWire.In" headlined as "Exclusive: For the First Time, a True Copy of Jammu & Kashmir's Instrument of Accession" by CHRI's employee Mr. Venkatesh Nayak containing purported scan of various Instruments of Accession allegedly obtained by Shri Nayak under the Public Records Act...I am disturbed that despite Mr. Nayak obtaining the true copies of several IoA's to the Indian Union from the National Archive, he has deliberately uploaded a distorted and blurred scan of J&K's Instrument of Accession which lacks the official seal of the Governor-General Lord Mountbatten of Burma. It is pertinent that all the other scans of IoAs of acceding states uploaded by Mr. Nayak to The Wire bear such seals.Herein fail not.sincerely"
