The Persian general Nadir Shah went to India in 1739. He wanted to conquer the throne, which had been weakened during the reign of Sultan Mahamad. The Sultan lost the decisive battle and had to surrender to Nadir.In 1339, the diamond was taken back to the city of Samarkand, where it stayed for almost 300 years. In 1306 in a Hindi writing, a curse is placed on the men who will wear the diamond: “He who owns this diamond will own the world, but will also know all its misfortunes. Only God, or a woman, can wear it with impunity.”The diamond was shipped to Britain on a ship where cholera broke out and supposedly the keeper of the diamond lost it for some days and it was returned to him by his servant.Queen Victoria wore the diamond occasionally afterwards. She left in her will that the Koh-i-noor should only be worn by a female queen.If the head of state was a man, his wife would have to carry the diamond. After Queen Victoria’s death, the Kohinoor became part of the Crown Jewels.Reacting to one of the many attempts by Indian groups to push for its return to India, in 2015, British historian Andrew Roberts was quoted as saying: “Those involved in this ludicrous case should recognise that the British Crown Jewels is precisely the right place for the Koh-i-Noor diamond to reside, in grateful recognition for over three centuries of British involvement in India, which led to the modernisation, development, protection, agrarian advance, linguistic unification and ultimately the democratisation of the sub-continent."
Kohinoor diamond has been at the centre of diplomatic rows intermittently ever since the attainment of Indian independence with some sections demanding its return. The priceless diamond which left the shores of India in 1850, now forms part of the British crown jewels displayed in the Tower of London making viewers savour this timeless beauty that rocked many a monarch across countries in the Kohinoor diamond has been at the centre of diplomatic rows intermittently ever since the attainment of Indian independence with some sections demanding its return. The priceless diamond which left the shores of India in 1850, now forms part of the British crown jewels displayed in the Tower of London making viewers savour this timeless beauty that rocked many a monarch across countries in the past many centuries.Kohinoor diamond is said to have been found in the Kollur mines in the Krishna basin of the present Andhra Pradesh, then under the Kakatiya kingdom in the 13th. century. The possession of the diamond changed between various powers for the next few centuries. When Warangal was raided by the forces of Alauddin Khilji under Malik Kafur in 1310, Kohinoor along with other riches was taken away to Delhi by the invader. It remained with successive Delhi Sultans and then the Mughals. Kohinoor is mentioned in the memoirs of both Babur and Humayun. Shahjahan, got it set in his fabled Peacock throne.When Nadir Shah of Persia invaded Delhi and looted the Mughal treasury in 1739, he took away Kohinoor along with Peacock throne from Muhammad Shah. It is said that on seeing the diamond for the first time, Nadir Shah exclaimed, “Koh-i-Noor”, meaning, mountain of light. That is how the stone got its name. Legend has it when Nadir Shah pillaged Delhi, he could not find Kohinoor in the treasury as the Mughal emperor had hid it in his turban. Having come to know of this, Nadir Shah proposed the exchange of turbans as a gesture of goodwill and thus the invader tricked the Mughal emperor to part with Kohinoor diamond.
