There are several significant reasons why such a project should not go ahead. One of these is the religious aspect. Bhagwan Shri Rama and the Ramayana are central components of our Hindu Dharma. The Ramayana is not a mythology or simply moral stories to narrate to children.
Factual evidence is available as a result of excavations which reinforces the truth that Shri Ram existed and that the Ramayana narrates a true story of the events at that time. The bridge between India and Sri Lanka has been viewed from space by NASA astronauts adding to the factual credibility. Destroying such a sacred symbol of Hindu heritage would be sacrilege.
The appearance of the Lord Vishnu as Shri Rama on earth teaches one and all of the ideal life to lead – duty as a son, husband, father and citizen of the society. The Great War which ensued after Shri Rama, Lakshman, Hanumanji and the entire monkey army crossed the bridge represents that good overcomes the evil in society. Therefore the Ram Sethu has great importance and significance in Shri Rama defeating the evil Ravana and rescuing Sita mata. This restored Dharma enabling society to once again live in a fair, peaceful and prosperous society.
