The Indian government is planning to start a diplomatic campaign of bringing back the Koh-I-Noor diamond and other treasures from England which they have taken with them in the past. The restitution campaign will be titled “Reckoning with the past” and it will be the biggest repatriation claim faced by the government of United Kingdom.
Govind Mohan, the secretary of India’s culture ministry stated : “It is of huge importance to the government. The thrust of this effort to repatriate India’s artefacts comes from the personal commitment of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has made it a major priority.”
