“These documents may have been secret once but there is no need to keep them secret now. They contain history and people have right to know,” Ms Banerjee said.
The files contain cabinet notes on the Quit India Movement, the Bengal Famine and the Great Calcutta Killings. They contain details about Partition too.
Asked if there was anything in the documents about Netaji, Ms Banerjee said, “You have to see the documents.”
The documents will be available to the public at the state archives, state library and the Calcutta Information Centre.
