A gulf over Ram's bridge
A gulf over Ram's bridge
This issue is not at all a big issue if we all can understand it.If we are thinking of our religion and culture, we should not mix it with our ego.As a Hindu we all must be knowing Swami Vivekananda. What has he told during the conference held at Chicago in front of the Gurus of different religion.We should not make our religion a communal aspect. The meaning is very much vast and one has to understand it.
Only Hindu Sanatan Dharm has a proper imagination, because it is the oldest culture. In all religion we find the meaning of GOD, The Super Power, PARAMBRAMHA who is unseen in character. In Hindu Sanatam Dharm We worship idols of different name and fame. Because Only Sanatan Dharm has has drawn the conclusion of knowing the GOD in a form.So RAM, Krishna and other eight incarnation are in the form of Our Super Power.Now His existance, history etc.is always there with us. Otherwise why are we worship them, their epics from generation to generation.
Our Govt. as nothing to do with our sentiment.It always see the betterment of mankind by achiving economic prospority of the country, but unknowingly it brings desctruction all the way. Weapons are invented to protect the country and its economy, which is a dialogue of Govt. But ultimately it's a threat to the mankind not only, but also to all living being.
That so why, we never know our religion, it is not only Hinduism, Christianity, Muslim, Jainism, Budhisim.

The Sethusamudram controversy has flared up. The two canals to be dredged, a total of 89 km, are supposed to open new economic avenues. But, the proposal to cut through the bridge, said to have transported Ram's army, has environmentalists, politicians and VHP up in arms. A look at the arguments and issues:
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
OFFICIAL CLAIM:
No major damage likely. Coral presence along route is negligible. Dredging not a threat to ecosystems like Mannar biosphere, coastal populations. Will increase opportunities for fishermen
THE CATCH:
Coral reef will be dredged, turbidity will be harmful. Bridge is natural defence against storms and tsunamis. Mix of hotcold currents creates unique biosphere. Big ships will disturb fishing. Significant seismic activity
ECONOMICS OF THE CANAL
OFFICIAL CLAIM:
Siltation removal will not be prohibitive. Route will save 36 hours and 450 km for ships. It will provide transit for nine ships a day to begin with. Tuticorin port will be transformed into nodal hub. 13 minor ports planned
THE CATCH:
Sedimentation not accounted for. Ships will have to do a tightrope in shallow waters. Those displacing more than 10 mtrs cannot use canal. Max weightage is 30,000t, unlike 300,000t for Suez or Panama. Difficult to tow damaged ships
SECURITY CHECKS
OFFICIAL CLAIM:
Will allow swifter movement of small naval and coast guard craft. Will afford better control of east and west coast to check smuggling, terrorism. Direct Bay of Bengal-Arabian Sea link through Indian waters
THE CATCH:
Ships, particularly commercial, are vulnerable to attacks by LTTE. If Tigers' security in north Sri Lanka is affected, they may target vessels. The narrow and shallow nature of the canal means an accident may block it for weeks
POLITICAL WHIRLPOOL
OFFICIAL CLAIM:Govt says that its view that there is no historical basis to the characters and events of Ramayana is misunderstood. Govt respects the epic and will correct its position in the Supreme Court
THE CATCH:
Centre's affidavit on Ram Setu is fodder for VHP which says the bridge is a matter of faith. BJP supports the stir, saying Centre has 'insulted' Hindu faith. But NDA had in its 2004 manifesto promised completion of project. Now BJP calls for realigning canal
