Bhubaneswar (VISAKEO - 23/8): Workers of the State Bharatiya Janshakti on Wednesday staged a demonstration in front of the Raj Bhawan and strongly criticised the Centre's move for its proposal for demolition of the Rama Setu under the Setu Samudram project.
They demanded an unconditional withdrawal of the arrest warrant against their national president Uma Bharati in the wake of her stout opposition to the proposal.
The party's State president Arabinda Dhali said, "The Rama Setu is a classic symbol of the Indian heritage and should be declared as a wonder of world as the master piece of mythic period built by Sri Rama approximately 17,50,000 years ago. The Centre's move to demolish it should be battled out at any cost." A Tamil Nadu court has issued an arrest warrant against the party supremo when she came down heavily on the Central Government warning it to restrain from the move as it would possibly hurt the sentiments of the millions of Hindus in the country, Dhali said.
Later, the party workers submitted a memorandum to the President through the Governor.
