<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->They (BJP) need to decide WHY they are opposed to dredging the canal. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->They merely gave additional reasons for why it should be preserved. Having noticed that the present 'Indian' govt is anti-Hindu, the BJP and others realised the primary reason wasn't going to cut it with the govt at all (see shortly below for 3rd repeat of this reason).
The pro-Sethu side is just indicating that there are many valid reasons to preserve it, and hopes that at least one of them appeals to the nasty govt.
Primary reason: As I've said all along, the Ramar Sethu is of great significance to Hindus. That's really all that matters. It's all that need matter. And it is in this respect that I keep stressing that what it's made of and the like is irrelevant. (It would be interesting to know, but only if non-destructive methods could be used to find out.)
Though unfortunate that you find the main reason so hard to understand,
