Solicitor General Ranjit Kumar

Solicitor General Ranjit Kumar of India recently announced that India will try to bring back the Kohinoor diamond from Britain, which is one of the oldest and valuable diamond in the world. India, Britain, or the diamond "gift," she said. His remarks shocked the Indians ate, emotional debate across the country have been created. There has been so much passion that the Indian government has stumbled, and they want to bring back the diamond.

All India Human Rights and Social Justice Front for the Supreme Court to return the case file to the diamond in terms Kumar said. He claimed that, in 1849, which ended the Anglo-Sikh War Sikh state 'voluntary compensation as a gift to the British government at the diamond. Again with the Antiquities and Art trejarsa Act, has been referred to in 197, before the country's independence in 1947, India has taken the ancient objects, they can not bring back to India. Kumar said the Indian government is not the way to bring back the diamond.

Kumar's speech, the cry that has been created, the government's spokesman was forced to retreat. He said, Kumar said the government is not a formal statement. According to the Ministry of Culture, and they will claim. But Kumar if the Supreme Court is not given the responsibility to take action, then it seems because of his statements, this is the tomb of the legendary Hope Diamond to get back to India. As a result, the question is whether this will be the final outcome.

Kohinoor diamond from the mine had kakatiya dynasty, is the place gunatura, the Andhra Pradesh today. The king himself made it to the temple. Later, raided the house of the Delhi Sultan Alauddin Khilji, who plundered the wealth of his kingdom took with it a lot more. Then the diamond passed to the Mughal rulers, who sits at the helm of the 16th century, Delhi.

Kohinoor invader Nadir Shah of Persia in 1739, came into the hands. After the seizure of the consignment that the looting of Delhi, his peacock throne was invaluable. Nadir sahai the legend that gave Kohinoor name, which means "mountain of light '.

In 1747 the death of Nadir Shah Ahmad Shah Durrani took the diamond, one of his generals, who later became the Amir of Afghanistan. Durrani in 1809, a descendant of one of the Sikh Maharaja Ranjit Singh was forced to hand over the diamond. But the lion's offspring could not sustain the kingdom. After the war, the British defeated the Sikhs were included in the British Sikh kingdom. This is probably the Kohinoor diamond was presented by the British.

The cost to the British defeated the Sikhs, Sikhs Kohinoor diamond to fill it, "voluntary gift as it is said that they had, that's ridiculous. Duleep Singh, the last Sikh princes Kohinoor diamond was handed over, of whom was only 10 years old. Perhaps it was not the way to him.

Bijitara winners in war compensation, it is not entirely voluntary, the damages are claimed. Therefore, the cost of many of Britain's former upanibesai rightly claimed, exploited and devastated by whom they have been for a long time.

Granted, many claim ownership of the diamond, has created a special problem. Iranians say, Nadir Shah, the diamond was stolen, but it was nice and square. Afghans say again, the Sikhs were forced from their diamond. Pakistan has also demanded a new and frail. They were under the British Sikh Empire was the capital of Lahore before. Since the diamond and on the ground most of the time, so the legitimate demands of the Indians.

British Prime Minister David Cameron's visit to India in 010 words literally, where the Kohinoor diamond. Because, yes, if one can be seen, all of a sudden the whole of the British Museum was empty. "Kumar diamond, part of the British context, as I am taking the nationalists are losing hope, the Indian tradition, this invaluable resource is no longer to be found in the back.

There are many of us owe to Britain. But according to the greed of the things they took away, they do not return the Tower of London with the queen's crown has put the diamond. It reminds us of the finger in the eye, colonialism really key thing: to shamelessly feet, not compulsion in, to embezzlement. Perhaps the most powerful argument against the Kohinoor diamond and cast in Britain, where it is simply not acceptable.
