India has the rightful claim , I can understand why Pakistan might want to claim it. But why do Iran and Afghanistan claim it tho?

India might be shifting its stance on this: „In 2018, at a hearing of the Supreme Court of India, the Archaeological Survey of India clarified that the diamond was surrendered to the British and „was neither stolen nor forcibly taken away“.“ [Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koh-i-Noor)

The reason Iran and Afghanistan claim it is because Nader Shah looted it during his invasion of Delhi

Bullshit. It legally belongs to the British Crown. There’s a freaking treaty that confirms its ownership.

We should dismantle Big Ben and put it in Hyderabad and see how the poms like it. They have no culture of their own in the UK.

Strictly speaking it shouldn’t belong to any nation but to the closest living relatives of Maharaja Duleep Singh.

Give it back to the first place it was broken from, the Bhadrakali temple of Kakatiyas.

At this point, this does not even qualify for a map. You can just spell the names of the countries. The mods should do a better job

Better for the UK to keep it. If it’s returned to India, Modi gov will give it to the Ambanis and they’ll just put it in their jewellery. No one would know where it went. At least we know right now where it is
