The story of Ram and Sita has been a large part of my faith from when my parents told me story when I was young.
The story is one of the cornerstones of Hindu dharma and I find it quite shocking and appalling that the government of a so called secular country such as India which is meant to protect and respect all religions would be considering destroying such an important site in Hindu dharma and India's history.
To me it is not about whether the bridge was built by an army of monkeys but about what the bridge symbolises. Shree Ram's story teaches us very valuable lessons which are all still valid today. The physical presence is an integral part of this and destroying this would destroy a part of India's culture for good.
Is a faster shipping lane worth destroying such an important symbol of Hindu belief and upsetting the sentiment of Hindu's around the world? - I think not!!!!
