Qns 
 
I. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow.
 
1 The Kohinoor meaning ‘Mountain of Light’ in Persian, is a 105 carat diamond. It was once the largest known diamond in the world. The Kohinoor was traditionally known as ‘Syamantaka-mani’ and later ‘Madnayak’ or the King of Jewels’. It was named Kohinoor in the 18th century, by Afghan Ahmed Shah Abdali .
 
2. The Kohinoor originated in Andhra Pradesh along with another diamond called the ‘Darya-ye Noor’-the ‘Sea of Light.’ It was found in the Kollur region of Guntur district, one of the world’s earliest diamond-producing regions. This region was the only known source of diamonds until 1730. Later, diamonds were discovered in Brazil.
 
Since the Kohinoor was found, it has belonged to various kings and nations. Hindus, Persians, Mughals, Rajput, Turks, Afghan, Sikh and British rulers have fought bitterly over it for many years. The Kohinoor was seized by the East India Company and it became part of the British Crown Jewels when Queen Victoria was proclaimed Empress of India in 1877. The diamond is currently set into the crown of Queen Elizabeth and is on display at the Tower of London.
