VHP to launch Ram Sethu Shila Yatra from Nov 26

Bhubaneswar: (visakeo)The State unit of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on
Tuesday announced to organise a month-long "Ram Sethu Shila Yatra"
from 30 districts and the yatra will traverse the whole State in order
to mobilize public opinion against the Sethu Samundram Shipping Canal
project of the DMK led Tamil Nadu Government. VHP will organize such
yatras in 2,000 places across the country from November 20 to protect
Ram Sethu.

VHP State secretary Gouri Prasad Rath said that millions of Hindus
would be enrolled for the yatra and poojas would be performed in all
12 "jyotirlingas" during it. He called upon all Hindu politicians to
support the yatra for safeguarding the Ram Sethu in the State. He
alleged that said that the UPA and Tamil Nadu Government and are
serving the interests of the Americans and the Chinese through the
Sethusamudram project. When the common people, scientists,
environmentalists and archaeologists are vouching for the existence of
the Ram Sethu and the grave dangers posed by its proposed breaking,
Union Minister T R Baalu and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi are
bent upon rubbishing them and trying to thrust their dictatorship. Do
such people have a right to continue in their offices?" Rath asked
