GOVERNMENT ON RAMSETU
It refers to affidavit of Archaeological Survey of India
(ASI) filed in the Apex Court on behalf of Union government denying any
historical or ‘scientific’ proof of existence of Ram Setu or even
Lord Ram. Existence of incidents in ancient era of Ramayana and
Mahabharata are available in various parts of Asian
sub-continent. Even existence of Ram Setu is clearly and
prominently mentioned in Ramayana as route set up with floating
stones by Lord Ram to make reach his Vanar Sena to Lanka from
India much before NASA released pictures of the stone-route in the sea.
Islamic nation Pakistan has also acknowledged its city Lahore named
after Lord Ram’s elder son Luv as per tourist-brochure published by
Pakistan Tourism Development Corporation (PTDC), an agency of Pakistan
Government. If scientific or historical proofs are necessary in
regard of religious beliefs, then Union Government can on some day even
approach the Apex Court to close long-pending Ayodhya issue by ordering
five-starred hotel at the disputed site to earn huge revenue-earning in
so-termed national and public-interest!
All religions including Hinduism are based on beliefs
with no historical proofs available for characters or events named in
their respective holy books. Therefore Union government should better
announce the country as ‘no-religion’ country. All the members of Union
cabinet should publicly express their views clearly on the controversial
affidavit filed by ASI which has badly hurt religious sentiments of
majority Hindus. It seems there are elements in UPA which are behind
creating such controversies to make public divert towards BJP.
