The Supreme Court today directed the Centre to place before it the report of Prime Minister-appointed expert panel on the feasibility of building an alternative shipping channel through Dhanuskodi instead of Ram Sethu around the country's southern tip.

This is what Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy tweets: @Swamy39 Court also agreed to hear me on 27/3 on making Setu a heritage place.That is wonderful. The Court rebuked the govt for taking so long to file the report on alternative channel- i.e. without touching Setu. Fixed March 27th.
