ICHR to ascertain whether Ram Setu was natural or man-made
The Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) under the HRD ministry will conduct an underwater exploration study to find out whether Ram Setu off the south-eastern coast of Tamil Nadu was a natural phenomenon or man-made. While some claim the Setu was a bridge built by Lord Rama's army, others insist it's a naturally formed chain of lime shoals.
