These politicians are sick. The people shouting along with them are sick. Why are they all hindering the infrastructure projects? Let RAMA lived or not[I am a HINDU and worship GOD everyday]. Is this Ramasethu bridge is of any use to the nation? Is it connecting India and Srilanka now? Is there any transport happening over it now? Any tourists visting that place and government making huge money over it? NO is the answer for all these Qs. Look at other countries - there is a suez channel, panama channel, english channel. Did those countries have such problems constructing these projects?[We don't know]. Did u all know that a ship from calcutta/chennai to cochin has to go around srilanka? Even if u can't do anything good to the country, atleast don't stop people from doing something good.

Who is opposing the Project. It seems you got late into discussion.
No One is opposing the project. Politicians can say to the people that Ram exists but we have to go ahead with the project. Thats it.
Why the statements like Ram is just a character. He is a drunkard. Can these politicians say the same thing on Allah and Jesus and demolish all the Dargas, Churches which are obstacles for road-widening?
When Scientists have came up with six other alternatives, why they are adamant.
Finally, its about the identity of Hinduism and self-respect.

The distance from calcutta to cochin is shortest by landroute than sea. Sea transportage is more benificial for thousands of miles stretching continents. What idiot you are. Where did you get your engineering degree? In some Karunanidhi certified college?

the ecological damage is enormous, so is the elevated risk of tsunamis. we can convert that spot into a great tourist place. the money invested in that far exceeds known revenues. also, the need for transport by ships can be handled in most parts by rail networks, only large machinery needs to be transported by ships. otherwise, for most parts, its highly politicised. there's zero transparency to describe its usefulness, not there's a debate thats meaningful to evaluate the whole thing.
