This government is a bunch of morons....first a statement, then a retraction...always ready to humiliate itself.
But come on: in today's day and age to oppose development in the name of religion? Thats a shade like the Taliban which opposed woman's education and health-care, or the Catholic Church which is against birth control! This is ridiculous!
All those hard line Hindu Ram Bhakts should focus more on the impact of their shouting - jobs lost, efficiency compromised, barriers to development.
All the ASI said was there is no archaelogical evidence that proves that the so-called Ram Setu was man made or "God" made. There is nothing wrong with that.
Please. If you have to focus on rising to oppose wrongs, rise to fight poverty, illiteracy, woman's right, equality, health.
More Indian children die of malnutrition than sub-Saharan Africa. Chanting Ram's name or killing over Allah or Jesus has not helped us. Lets wake up to that reality. Lets focus on real issues which plague our country, and tarnish its "heritage".
The whole bunch of people opposing this construction are nothing but backward fools, confused over what they consider tradition.
A country where 25% of its people go hungry every day cannot afford to have such stupid reasons for opposing development.
PS: Before the obvious attacks on me and my religion and nationality and character which I expect from short-sighted fools who will react...I AM A BRAHMIN BY BIRTH AND PRACTISE.
