We know weakness of hindu religion of caste and race, no offence but by destroying sethu you a Tamil boy might boast of being developing hindu dravidian rather than a north indian hindu... which is also wrong to hit somebody's feeling by force. I still believe its not religion but the faith and god we love. Mark my words, Don't hurt somebody's faith you will gain nothing and it will add bitterness in the society.

I believe a compromise has to be found (still I donot understand why people in the North is getting so emotional about this- look at it from another perspective if the construction is slowed dwon (it will never be shelves or stop, its a hundred year project), people sentiment will be hurt and bitterness will develop here.

because prayer and story of Rama creates belief in family and love for wife, I don't know after wife snatching becoming a accepting trend (then)in the society how many families in peace will survive. Husband-wife culture is a holy knot dignified in the ramayana and to fight for your estranged wife(by force) is a right thing. Rape is an evil act.

Yes mate this setu also signifies people in sri lanka are evils. It symboilizes ravan is from lanka. Start developing tensions with the ONLY neighbour we havent had any serious trouble yet. Thats the culture being practiced in this land. It comes natively to us with any conscious intentions you see.

Karuna Nidhi's family is deeply into religion. Goggles is not a Tamilian nor is he a fighter aginst descrimination. He is a Telugu guy who found a niche in Tamil Nadu and divided their people on the basis of caste just like his guru E.V.R who is also a telugu.

do you have the boldness to fight north indians' arrogance and discrimination ?
This is the true face of congress.... if it comes to sentiments of hindues every thing will be taken through the scintific view.......take sethusamudram project........but when it comes to Haj Subsidy then it is very scientifiy to wasting hindues money on some onces pilgrimage. Given donation to private missonary collages.... Actully congress is only helping and supporting Jehadi agenda....

Tuklak boy,this is not canal but channel.canal is built in land- i e suez canal,panama canal but this useless sethu samudram project is built in sea as channel.useless in terms of economic unviability in shipping terms - less draft will enable smaller ships to pass through besides kills marine life,ecological,environ- mental,opens the gate for Tsunami,security risk to our coastal nuclear plants like kalpakkam, every year dredging permanently,pilotage costing tugging boat costing,inspection regularly would add up the cost.Also this can not be operated as all weather channel.Also trade direction to tuticorin port is not much via this channel becouse most of the ships calling tuticorin comes from middle east,indonesia,south africa south american countries,australia which need not come via this channel.balu knows this better than you but still he wants. finally our P M sanctioned a new airport project for RS 2700 in chennai to compensate the shelving of sethu samudram and dumping it by appointing a new committee which will give report after one year by which time UPA will be out of power.hope you rethink your view.

With or without the canal - Tsunami will always happen - its nature. It affected TN without the canal, it will affect TN even when the canal is built- we are a coastal people - we have seen tsunami before and we will see tsunami in the future. If we are afraid of tsunami, then guest we will need to move to the Himalayas.

Tsunami will always happen. true. but do we need to aggravate the effect? Just understand this. Tamils have a problem not just with Northies. They have problems with Kannadigas, Malayalis, even Andhra people, not to mention the Sinhalese and increasingly with Malays. Is it because of a gross inability to respect other's sentiments? Perhaps a bit of introspection is in place.

From the above message from Tamil Boy, we see that Tamils have problem with Tamil Brahmin itself.....
Is there any proof that our father's father's father's father's........father was here? If yes there is raman and ramasethu. If no there was no raman no ramasethu.
Its not at all a viable project with regard to ship sizes of present days,ecology,environment,weather etc etc...Its simply looting the people by Indian Politicians since independence....After Independennce"Rascals & Goondas" in the garb of National leaders have colonised the whole country..The fact is corruption money is shared 60:40 by Ruling:Opposition parties..Ha Ha East India company is back...
We don't hurt faith of christians, muslims, jews, sikhs and any other religion kindly don't hurt over religious monuments and faith. Please don't destroy Ram sethu. As you love your god we love our Ram too.

Well said SV, I second your opinion. No one has a right to hurt our feelings, destroy our temples or heritage sites. Hindus are not going to sit back and take crap.
Already the impact of the Ramsethu project in many aspects was voiced by many experts in varies fields since this project was launched. Actually this project was first mooted by the British in 1850 for their own advantage;however this project is out dated today as the heavy weight ships cannot sail through this way, cost wise it increased many times today compare to the initial estimates,environmental wise it will affect the sea plant and fishes seriously besides the livelihood of the fisher folks, hurting the feelings of the majority Hindus and many more.This project is a waste of tax payers money for the benefit of the corrupt DMK leaders who counting their days in Taminadu and they are in hurry to loot more through this project before their exit.

there are some fairy tales which are not forgotten..If u have read HAns Christen Anderson--ugly duckling ,HAnsel and Gretel---also everyone remebers mythology as Hindus do so do Greeks remeber thir ones ---Illyad and Odyssey.But that does not make this stories true
We are confused people in every sense. When it comes to the popular beliefs of people we play politics. It is very bad. The existence of any divine name as worshiped by any religion of the world can not be scientifically proved or disproved. Religion is now part and parcel of human world. As long as we do clash with other religions and claim superiority of our religion the peace of the world is ensured. The ills of the present world emerge when we provoke other beliefs directly or indirectly. In disguise of trade, the dominant religions are fighting each other without any end. Now the world is filled with all possible destructive weapons of all types and easily available in every corner of the globe to kill people without any feeling of shame and fear. Whether one attains Heaven or Hell, we do not know but they are making their lives miserable and filling agony in others lives. Time has come now. All religions should come together and put the people on right track with all their sincere efforts and preachings. Hatred breeds hatred only. The government can not exist without the objective of achieving security and welfare of its people in the process. It should prioritize its objectives.. 1. security 2. protection of public properties, 3. education and health facilities and 4. Progressive ly reform people from their age old habits proved to be harmful to society.
We can not site a single law implemented without any breaks in it over periods. What proof is needed to say?

Teach these all bullshit to hindus only... we are not going to listen this from you...... for us Religion is on TOP... then comes all other things.....We are waiting for the period when there is only one religion on whole INDIA. so no conflicts...and war.......
I knew only thing when time comes to HINDUS issue congress is always using scientific languages or some other clues and in other religion's issue we should be always secular. why so ? If sethusamudram is issue of Hindu sentiments they should drop that project which is dangerous to INDIAN Security.
