New Delhi, 18: In a shocking development, Prime Minister Narendra Modi led Union government on Monday told the Supreme Court that the United Kingdom has the right to keep 'Kohinoor' diamond.

kohinoor

The counsel for Modi government told the apex court that India should not claim 'Kohinoor' diamond as it was neither stolen nor forcibly taken away, a statement which left judges baffled.

The Solicitor General said that 'Kohinoor' was handed over by Maharaja Ranjit Singh to the East India Company. Therefore, as per Culture ministry, it was neither stolen nor forcibly taken away.

Subsequently, Chief Justice asked the Centre if it was for dismissal of a petition seeking the return of Kohinoor.

The court also warned Modi government that it would face problem in future in putting any legitimate claim on the diamond.

In reply, the Solicitor General said that this was the stand of Culture ministry,  which also had Ministry of External Affairs  in the loop.

The Supreme Court has asked the Centre to file a detailed reply within six weeks on the Kohinoor Diamond issue.

Is Modi Govt taking care of indians or UK. Is he PM for UK or India. He has already sold India in the hands of foreign investers and now selling indian assets also which was inherited from old kings. May be Modi will sell Taj Mahal, Qutub Minar, Vidhana soudha, Srirangapatna Mandir, Kollur Mandir to foreigners and make money for bjp and its supporters. shame on you bjp Govt. It will be better to kick out this Govt very soon otherwise we Indians will be completely sold out to foreigners. Beware of this looter's Govt.

After all RSS is the agent of British raj. How can they go against their

If a slave gives a \gift\" to his master, there is always room for reinterpreting the idea behind the \"gift\". But if the new masters are not different from the old, how can this happen? This is the tragedy of India - and this is why we ought to see that the Cong, BJP, CPI etc are actually a continuation of the British colonial legacy. You can defeat them in some cricket matches, but when it comes to substantive issues, you concede the match even before it begins. This is the colonialism of the mind."

@Tolerant Indian: Disappointing. The Brits don't deserve our Kohinoor. But if was a gift, then we shouldn't be expecting it back. Blame our Maharaja of Punjab. Height of MASKA GIRI.

Mangaluru, Mar 25: In the wake of coronavirus outbreak, Nalin Kumar Kateel, Member of Parliament today declared that the coastal city of Mangaluru will remain completely shut tomorrow, (March 26) onwards.

"Today the people were given time to go out of their houses to buy essentials today. But from tomorrow, this will not be allowed," the MP said. 

"We are discussing with officials of all departments about ways to manage the situation. Essential things and facilities people need, will be delivered at their doorsteps. We are sorting out how to deliver the items on behalf of the government and mode of delivery of items to apartment complexes," he said.

He said that a large number of patients from Kasaragod had come into the city yesterday. Hence, the district administration has taken a decision, he said.

"Under the present circumstances, the hospitals in the city would not be sufficient for our purpose. So the administration will not allow any vehicles including ambulances into the city. All the ambulances would be blocked from entering Dakshina Kannada district at Talapady border and sent back," he said.
