LNP – Modi’s aerial view of Ram Setu on his way back from SL coincides with Lord Ram’s birthday

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on his way back from Sri Lanka, had a Darshan of Ram Setu, also known as Adam’s Bridge, a vast chain of natural limestone shoals that spans an impressive 30 miles (48 km) over the Indian Ocean. This ancient land bridge is celebrated for its geological, historical, and mythological significance. The ancient limestone bridge is believed to have been built by Lord Ram. It continues to intrigue scientists and devotees alike, amid debates over its origin. Satellite images corroborate its existence, adding to the ongoing wonder surrounding it.

Prime Minister Modi shared a viral video of his aerial view from an Indian Air Force helicopter, which carried him from Anuradhapura to Tamil Nadu. This coincided with Ram Navami, the day marking the birth of Lord Ram in Ayodhya.

“On the way back from Sri Lanka a short while ago, I was blessed to have a darshan of Ram Setu. And, as a divine coincidence, it happened at the same time as the Surya Tilak ceremony was taking place in Ayodhya. Blessed to have the darshan of both. Prabhu Shri Ram is a uniting force for all of us. May His blessings always remain upon us,” he said.

Modi’s flyover coincided with the inauguration of the Pamban Bridge, India’s first sea bridge, which connects Rameswaram to the mainland by sea.
