Question: who gave kohinoor diamond to british?
Answer: After the Second Anglo-Sikh War ended in 1849 Duleep Singh gave the Koh-i-noor to Lord Dalhousie in the context of the Treaty of Lahore. He was 10 years old and his mother the regent, Jind Kaur, had been taken from him. From there the East India Company agents prepared the Koh-i-noor for shipment to the British court.
