Agitation against Central Govt's Setu-samudram project
September 8, 2007
By Staff Reporter
Chopda (Maharashtra): The Central Government is planning to demolish ‘Ram-setu’ joining Sri Lanka and India. It is the structure revered by all Hindus. The Government has undertaken a project called ‘Setu-samudram’ for the purpose. If ‘Ram-setu’ is demolished, it will not only be a spiritual loss but surrounding nations including India will also have to face adverse effects on the physical layout such as facing tsunami. Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS), therefore, held demonstrations to register protest against this project outside Tehsildar’s office at Chopda.
Representation warning the Government to face wrath of Hindus in case of its failure to take note of their protest was submitted later to Smt. Tanuja Vispute, the Dy. Tehsildar in the presence of Shri. Sanjay Thorat, General Secretary of BJP, Shri. Vilas Jagatap, taluka-chief of Shiv Sena, Shri. Anil Wankhede, district-chief of Maharashtra Navanirman Sena, Shri. Pramod Bhat, a municipal councilor, Adv. Dharmendra Sonar, Dr. Mahendra Patil, a Shiv Sena municipal councilor, Shri. Ashok Shetty of RSS, Shri. Amrutrao Sachdev, the President of local Merchants Organization, Shri. Dilip Mali of Mali Mitra Mandal, Shri. Shekhar Rajput and Shri. Narayan Borole of Maharana Pratap Mitra Mandal and seekers of Sanatan Sanstha and members of HJS.

India belongs to Hindu's from ages.....yet we are allowing and been friendly with other religious people, but ignoring this there have been attacks on Hindu’s in many forms since past 1000 Years. Almost more then 3 Lakhs temples have been demolished so far from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. We had enough, we are not going to tolerate any more. Rama Setu must be saved…..it’s our demand.Focus on the real time issues like basic needs, education, medical facilities, career prospects, security and safety etc. and try to improve the knowledge and make the society better where we all can live a very grateful life. once religion can be great by teaching knowledge from it not by criticizing other religions

It is heinous work to challenge existence of our ancient deity Shree Ram. Ramsetu is a holistic monument not only for the Hindus but for every civic of cosmos. As the first citizen of this beautiful globe was Hindu, the remaining were developed from our ancestry. NASA has already proved that it‘s a man made conduit. Today’s so called secular wise men from government do not understand this fact.. I think first of all we should arrange to show a photographic presentation to this wiser government. They are interested in votes only nothing more than that. Development from mouth of today’s ugly politician does not give us satisfaction and brew the smell of scandal to harm the our sentiment.Therfore I am appealing all the Bharatvasi to come unite as like Sardar has done in the past.Otherwise we will be pitted from all the side and in the comning years we will be in minority.

My sincere appreciation to all of you - this web site creators and visitors. This is one of the biggest crimes against Hindus around the world. All Hindus should wake up and take action against these henious crimes of our government. It is not India's issue, it is the entire world's issue. This is worse than Taliban destroying Budda statues. We all believe Hanuman is eternal. Mother Sita blessed Him to be so. It is all of our duty to protect His creation and serve Him. He could have brought Mother Sita by Himself. But He gave the opportunity to the vaanara soldiers and even the squirrels. He is giving us the opportunity today. Let us do our duty. You guys are inspiring me. Thank you.

The military, maritime and economic advantages for the construction of
the channel are there for India' which has prompted the government to go
for the project. This can also be achieved by improving existing infra structure.
India has many more burning issues to address, let them first improve
Infrastructure, make good quality roads, railway tracks and airports
of world class; which affect 1 billion people day in day out and save
millions of man hours and billions of rupees every day and then think
about this setu which may affect few hundred ships and few millions
rupees.
This project is brainless and unnecessary.
At present ships coming to the peninsula have to circum
Ram Setu is debated because there has been dehindunisation in South Indian states. Ram had many good friends Sugriv, Susena, Bibhisana and many others from South and he dovoted most of his youth in liberating South from demons. Ram Setu is the pricelss cultural capital of the world on which the ideals of Ram will be preached for good governance. Without Ram's ideal Ram Rajya cannot be achieved.

The Government does not possess any right to play with the sentiments of the Hindus. Rama setu should be saved at any means. No body should question the existence of RAMA the way no body should question the existence of their forefathers. Its not the question of the Setu. It is the question of the culture of the Country.
