Sethu at sea

February 6, 2008

Now the UPA government wants the Archaeological Survey of India to decide whether the Ramar-sethu or the Adam’s bridge is man made. The governmen, simply wants to buy time before starting the work at Palk bay. The environmental hazzards associatd with the dredging, was taken casually but now that the life guards have raised the security question, the UPA is looking for a way to stall the work, for as as long as it takes.

Dredging the canal will definitely affect the marine life. The coral reef will be destroyed by continuous sails and human contact. The canal is aimed to make the eastern-coast port bussier and richer but, at what cost? 

 So, I take the Government’s decision, to go for an archaeological study, as a good omen. Not because I think, that the sethu was man made but because, I feel the study will stop destruction of the marine life for the time being.
