On 31.8.2007 the Supreme Court had issued an order seeking govt's response by 14.9.2007
There is no evidence, news article or any proof to support the fact that Congress would've demolished the Ram Setu & that @Swamy39 stopped it through court's order.

Congress wanted DMK's support in vote of confidence.
So in order to please Karunanidhi, Congress in 2008 said "Lord Rama himself destroyed the Setu & it was no longer a place of worship" & that it will go forward with the canal project.
Who is complicit?
