The question is NOT about the morality of deportation, but about about the legitimacy of the UK's ownership.

The only two nations that have laid claim to the territory are France and the United Kingdom. (France lost it in the Napoleonic Wars.)

Of course, the difference between the Indian Ocean Territory and India, is that people lived in India before. When the French showed up, the atolls were uninhabited.
