Masters of Confiscations



The East India company transferred wealth of local royals to London through
the confiscations of Indian Royal Toshakhana s (treasury) after a
systematic study of the local royals wealth.



In 1855 such a confiscation was executed by Lord Dalhousie through Madras
Governor, Lord George Harris on Royal Timber yard in Haliyal Uttra Kanara,
present day Haliyal,  North, Karnataka. The matter went uncontested and the
Velliapura Kadamba Royal Family lost their only source of income, their
timber yard, their only place of business, while they resided across in
Portuguese territory, in Velliapura, because of this British/Portuguese
territorial and administrative difference the Velliapura Royal Family was
fortunate enough not to lose their life saving like other Indian royals.
This was the only British confiscation which yielded equal to zero wealth
to the British Royal Family.



The East India Company  may  have had nearly 100 fruitful confiscations and
many more under its belt adding billions to the wealth  of the British
Royal Family, almost all the information has disappeared from history.
Thanks to the ‘ The Tribune’ the Kohinoor confiscation will haunt the
British Royal family as long as the British Royal family survives.



In 1850, Governor General Lord Dalhousie, of East India Company personally
carried the huge diamond Kohinoor with him to London and induced the young
Maharaja Dalip Singh to present the Kohinoor as a ‘gift’ to Queen Victoria.
Maharaja Dalip Singh was earlier converted to Christianity to marry an
European bride. The Kohinoor was confiscated from the Maharaja Ranjit Singh
Toshakhana few years earlier by  Lord Dalhousie. Maharaja Ranjit Singh was
the father of Maharaja Dalip Singh.



Famously named as 'The mountain of light', Kohinoor the most famous diamond
of its day and an object of obsessive fascination for the colonial
authority. Originally the size of an egg The Kohinoor was  186 carats (
approximately 37 gms) but was reduced to 105 carats (21.6 gms) after it was
recut on the instruction of the British Royal family. It was originally
mounted in a brooch, but is now set into the crown of Queen Elizabeth and
on display at the Tower of London. London (TIP).



The Kohinoor is currently valued at  USD.20 billion.



According to English law a gift  once executed cannot be revoked and 'The
Tribune' uses the word ‘induced’ which cannot be  proved in a gifting
process. In 1860 Lord Dalhousie died at the age of 48, insider information
was that Lord Dalhousie was poisoned to death to conceal the gift
information.



Thanks to Lord Dalhousie, May his soul rest in peace.
