Ram Setu a natural structure, claim experts


‘Adams Bridge One-Lakh-Year-Old’


Whatever the Centre’s affidavit may say about the existence of Lord Ram, marine experts are unamious that opposing the waste of time. The Ram Setu, according to them, is a natural marine structure over one-lakh-year-olf and not man-made (during Ramayan era) as is made out to be.

Moreover, experts also termed as baseless the fear that the removal of sediments of a small aea of this setu would increase the intensity of tsunami. “The long stretch of sea around the area is shallow which helps disintregate the energy of the killer wave,” they say.

“It is a natural occurrence of the continuity of sandstone sedimentation which stretches below Dhanushkoti and the isotopic dating indicates that the deposition is over one-lakh-year old,” said Prof. Victor Raja Mannikam, head of department, Disaster Management at Sastra University, Thanjavur. He has studied the site in depth and is considered to be an authority over Ram Setu. Emphatically staiting that the structure, without doubt, is natural, Mannikam says that there is no way it could be associated with Ramayana as the epic dates back to around 5000 BC and this natural sedimentation is over one lakh years old.


Elaborating further, Dr Harshe Gupta, director, Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS), says that the removal of sediments of a small area of this setu would not increase the intensity of tsunami as the shallowness of the sea in the area decreases the velocity of the wave, which otherwise travel at the rate of 700 km per hour in deep sea.

Similarity, N Dubey, associate professor at Makelle University, Ethiopia and an expert in marine sedimentary, says that structure of rocks is identical to what are found on the shores. It is possible that the floating stone, as mentioned in the epic, are colonies of coral which are still available in abundance around the area.

“In addition there is all possibility that the level of sea, because of phenomenon like global warming, has fluctuated and what is perceived in shallow water was once a part of the main land,” he adds.

For me, the society as describedin the epic, represents the metal age (5000-6000BC) and Rama has not constructed the structure as it belongs to Pleistocene Age which shows emergence of stone tools,” said Prof V S Sahay, HoD, anthropology, at Allahabad University.

It was in 1804 that James Rennell, the first surveyor general of the East India Company called Ram Setu as Adams Bridge. Now, in order to reduce the steaming distances between the east and west coast of India and to improve the navigation within territorial waters of India, a navigation within channel connecting the Gulf of Manner and Palk Bay through Adam’s Bridge has been envisaged so that the ships moving between the east and west coasts of India need not go around Sri Lanka. The total cost of the project is Rs 2,427 crore.

Ram: Myth or History?


Did Ram exist? Its a question that has pitted historians against believers time and again. While historians cite lack of evidence to say Ram was a mythical personality, those who believe otherwise claim that significant evidence exists to confirm that Ram was a mythical personality, those who believe otherwise claim that significant evidence exists to confirm that Ram existed in flesh in blood. So, where does the truth lie?


    According to R P Tripathi, professor of ancient history at Allahabad University, History requires concrete evidence in the form of coins, inscriptions, etc to prove the existence of a character. Even if we take into account places mentioned in the Ramayana like Chitrakoot, Ayoudya, which still exist, the fact is that Ramayana is not a historical text. So, from that perspective, there is no historical evidence available of Ram. Having said that, we still cannot negate Rama's presence easily, since he has been a part of our collective consciousness for a long time.

    In fact, it is a precisely of this, that we cannot look at Ram obejectivaly, since he has made the transition from being simply a character in an epic to a religious figure, Council of Historical Reserch. In mythology, there are many characters who have been similarily mentioned. Does that mean that they all existed? he asks.


    So, are all mythical texts just that----only myth? Or, is there, somewhere, a grain of truth in them? Myths have to be carefully interpreted to find that grain of truth. In Ramayanas case, there is no evidence to prove that it is anything else except a myth. There is also no evidence----either historical or archaeological---which proves that Ram ever existed ot that he ruled Ayodhya, claims Settar.


    However; there are some who beg to differ: If archaeology cannot prove whether a temple existed at Ayoudya or a mosque just 500 years ago, what help can it render in establishing historical events more than 7,000 years ago? asks Pushkar Bhatanagar, author of the book, Dating The Era Of Lord Ram. The time has come to deliberate whether it is reasonable to be confined to only these kind of evidences for the purpose of proving the antiquity of an event and construct history. If the masons of those times failed to construct buildings which could survive seven millennia, an inference should not be drawn that the country had no inhabitants at that time or that Ram is a myth, he adds.


    However, history requires substantial evidence that can satisfy all academics, says R S Bidht, former Jt DG of the Archaeological Survey of India, Historical evidence has been found about such personalities as Ashoka, who left behind edicts. Unless similer evidence is found about personalities like Ram, it will be difficult to prove their existence, he says.


    Will such evidence ever be found, considering that the cities of the time have been built several times over? Nobody knows. For the time being, however, Ram remains a myth, at least in the eyes of history.
