Unfortunately, ill-informed people are making it a religion vs development issue. The economic merits of the SS project are also questionable. MuKa wants it to further personal glory and establish clanish-rule. Baalu is a like a dog liking tasting meals from multiple-plates. He took up the Quadrilateral project from Khanduri of BJP and you know the fate now, he inaugurated several projects in TN before state elections to spite Jaya, and you know now that none of the projects are moving ahead. Even easy projects: the OMR-IT road project is still stuck years after it was launched, MRTS project, Chennai airport modernization, port modernization, Chennai has also not been added to the freight corridor connecting Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkatta....
When there are least controversial, economically sound, ecologically safe projects with high chance of success, where is the need to rake up controversies. It is because of typical politician attitude- nothing unique only to MuKa- to divert attention from failures.
