A British man’s light-hearted comment at the National Museum of India has caught everyone’s attention. It has also reignited talks about India’s colonial past and the loss of its treasured artefacts to other countries.

The traveller, identified as Alex, recently visited the museum in New Delhi with a friend named Amina. While walking through the quiet halls, Alex asked, “Amina, do you know why there’s hardly any artefacts in the National Museum of India?" Without missing a beat, Amina replied, “I think it’s because they’re all in London." Alex nodded and said, “Ah, yeah, I remember," ending the short clip with a knowing smile.

The video, titled “Why the museums in India are empty", has gathered over five lakh views online and sparked a wave of mixed reactions from viewers.
