I am writing about why I strongly oppose the destruction of the Ram Setu Bridge. I am astounded by the fact that the government in India have even considered the destroying of the bridge as a possibility. The Ramayan is one of the greatest epics in Hindu dharma, it teaches us essential qualities of leading a good life, and it is a fundamental part of our religion. However many times the Ramayan is read, the reader never loses interest even if they know what happens in the end. There is no need to destroy such a historic and religious bridge, which represents the strength of our Hindu faith for a few economic reasons.
The Ram Setu is a great Hindu heritage site, and to destroy it would be a direct attack on all Hindus around the world. The reasons for which I oppose the destruction of the bridge are not only religious; there are also huge environmental factors. The wildlife that live around this bride depend on it for protection, and if it was destroyed their lives would be in danger. The Ram Setu acts a barrier against any upcoming tsunamis and destroying this bridge would mean there is greater risk, and their will be a devastating effect on the people in the south of India. The government say that the ships would be able to make a shortcut through this canal that they could build, but only around an hour worth of fuel would be spent, which is very little when we look at the disadvantages of destroying the bridge.
We as Hindus must do our best to prevent the government from destroying this bridge. Let our voices be heard!
Jai Sri Ram!!!
