The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Mr.Karunanidhi should stop wailing about the SethuSamudram Ship Channel Project (SSCP) at every public function pleading with the Centre to implement the project expeditiously ignoring the objections of others.
The SSCP is however now “clinically dead” and is surviving only on the oxygen of the rhetoric of Mr.Karunanidhi. Only formal cremation and final rites of the project now remains. Mr.Karunanidhi should realize that like Ravana, he too has been defeated by Lord Rama.
Instead of grieving for the dead project, Mr.Karunanidhi should, for the rapid development of the coastal districts of Tamil Nadu ask the Centre should build double broad gauge railway lines and a six lane National High connecting Kanyakumari to Kolkata along the coast. The Mannar Bay should be developed as a Marine Economic Zone, and as an export container port, while an international airport should be constructed in Tuticorin.
Therefore Mr.Karunanidhi should learn from the Bhagwat Gita and think positively about the future, instead of the dead past.
