Mumbai: Vishva Hindu Parishad has written a letter to Governement of India including President about Ram-Setu issue. In that letter VHP demanded to Re-Align the Sethusamudram Project; Leave the Adi-Sethu/Ram Setu unscathed and officially notify it an Ancient Monument using the analogy of Brahma Sarovar at Kurukshetra. VHP is raising this issue at all fore and levels.
The text of the letter is as follows (In short):
Aadaraniiya Pradhan Mantri Ji,
Vande Mataram!
Over 1/6th population of the world, viz., over one billion Hindus represented by Vishva Hindu Parishad and various other organizations in Bharat and overseas, has time and again conveyed to your Government that they are not against the Sethu Samudram Channel Project (SSCP) per se nor opposed to Bharat taking steps to shore up its economic and security interests. The Government is entitled to take care of the country’s trade and maritime interests.
(B) But surely this can be achieved without causing any harm to the most ancient heritage bridge on earth, i.e., the Adi Sethu – the first ever man-made bridge in the sea – also popularly known as Ram Sethu/Ramar Sethu and highly revered and valued by the entire Hindu world since times immemorial as one of their most precious and celebrated cultural and civilizational landmarks. The SSCP can be re-aligned/re-routed with less cost and distance as rightly suggested by specialists.
(C) But the apparent Government apathy as well as disrespectful attitude towards the Hindu sentiments smacks of a hidden agenda against the Hindu world. The timing of sending a dredger named Aquarius with vengeance to begin the razing of Ram Setu on the very day of Sri Ram Navami, the Happy Birthday of Lord Sri Ram, corroborates this deliberate and conspiratorial pushing ahead of the anti-Hindu alignment of SSCP. The obliteration of this bridge will not only offend our religio-cultural sentiments, but will also expose the southern coastlines of Bharat to the vagaries of frequent cyclones and any possible future Tsunamis and pose a great risk to the environment, ecology, oceanic life, Thorium deposits, etc. It will also endanger the livelihood of thousands of fishermen in the local area.
(Congratulation VHP, all hindu must put pressure on GOI to leave the Ram-Setu unscathed ! – Editor)
