As we know, Queen Elizabeth, Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, and the nation’s figurehead for seven decades, recently died aged 96.
Many prominent figures in the world especially the United Kingdom mourned her death, however, South Asians on other hand demanded to bring back the Kohinoor diamond to India.

The same 105.6 carat spectacular diamond along with sapphires and other precious stones, in the British monarch’s crown fashioned in 1937. It belonged to the Queen until her death.
The fact that Indians are feeling more touchy about “Queen’s” death than the loss of #Kohinoor which originally belongs to Bhadrakali, speaks a lot about brown slaves. Kohinoor adorned the third eye (Gyan chakshu) of Devi #Bhadrakali. pic.twitter.com/072GKpZBKf

Queen Elizabeth dying got me thinking about how I lost you just like India lost the kohinoor. You were a diamond in my life and I didn’t realize it, instead I just let our love die out. I miss you, text me. pic.twitter.com/87gv0M8lQC

Journey of #Kohinoor 💎: From India to England.
It should come back to its origin, the least UK can do towards the centuries of exploitation, opression, racism, slavery inflicted on people of the Indian subcontinent. pic.twitter.com/W7zHBLKOaf
