According to the article it's not that simple. The governments of Pakistan and Afghanistan also claim ownership. Why should the Indian domestic courts decide whether it stays in India or goes to one of those other countries?

Indian courts are better than the people that stole it deciding, the alternative is giving the Brits an excuse to keep it for a 100 years.

Why would Indian courts be appropriate if (as /u/alephnerd write here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32860918 ) Pakistan and Afghanistan are potential claimants as well? Why not send it to Pakistan or Afghanistan and let one of their court systems decide?
