Is there any scientific proof that Ram at all existed? And even if we consider that Ram existed, how could he build the setu? Any scientific explanation?
This article is tremendously superfluous and misguiding. Decision of the Govt. of a secular country should not be based on religion. One is free to practice his/her religious belief but if that faith interferes with national interest, science and logic should get preference.

If that is the case, why should the government milk the hindu temple resources for P-secularism and why should government spend tax payers' money on waqf and haj? If you wish to be ignorant it is your choice, but trying to inject non-existent logic and reason into something as plain and simple as the vote bank politics of our govt., then you will not be successful.

This talk of Haj subsidy is pure bakwas. To shut their big mouth once and for all the Haj committee should stop using Air India for the next haj and instead invite tenders from airlines across the world to bid for transporting apporx. 170,000 Hajis from India to Saudi Arabia and back. I am sure this will be much cheaper and better for the Muslims of India.

please do so miya, that will be better for us as Hindus, so that our hard earned money is not spent for some so-called religious picnics. for um that will be sooner the better, Once the governemnt subcidy is removed the picnic goers number will automatically come down to 20% of current numbers.
