Nationa-wide agitation by Rameswaram Ram Sethu Protection Movement

Rameswaram Ram Sethu Protection Movement on Monday said it would hold a nation-wide agitation if the Centre failed to declare by November 30 that the Ram Sethu or Adam's bridge would not be destroyed for implementing the Sethu Samudram Project.

The UPA government should also declare the bridge as a national monument, the movement convenor and working president of Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Vedantham said here.

Briefing reporters on the deliberations of the executive committee meeting of the movement's Tamil Nadu chapter, held on Sunday, Vedantham said that it was decided to hold 'Ramshila Yatra,' from November 20 to December 10 in all the districts in the country.

Stones and rock pieces would be collected from Rameswaram where it is believed that Lord Rama started building the 'floating bridge'. These stones and rock pieces would be sent to the districts, to create awareness about the issue among the people, he said.
