Sri Lanka’s tourism industry is anticipated to receive a boost from Indian pilgrims with the official launch of the Shree Ramayan Trails project.

The Indo-Sri Lankan cultural project aims to draw millions of Indian and international Hindu pilgrims, travelers, and tourists to Sri Lanka by offering the pilgrimage of nine sacred sites across Sri Lanka as mentioned in the epic Ramayana.

Spanning from Adam’s Bridge in the Mannar Basin to Seetha Eliya in Nuwara Eliya, the nine revered sites will be showcased using cutting-edge technology and innovative tourism methodologies.

This could be a crooked device to join the two countries humane way, if Harin contests he is definitely going to lose his deposit.

When Hollywood, Bollywood and Kollywood were not there, Ramayan was the fiction of that era. Please do not entertain superstitious things.

Modern day Ravana in Colombo? Tuesday, 23 April 2024 11:08 PM

Indians love fiction. You can see them worship film stars and make them chief ministers in some states. They love and believe in fiction that reiterate the society based on caste system. May be they will find a Ravana in Colombo who abducted Seetha, and came flying from India!

Concentrate on wealthy and above middleclass from India who just want to avoid Maldives. These are ordinary people and so can't afford to spend much.

Ravana was a concerned father rescuing his beloved daughter Sita from a domestic violence situation. This reality has been ignored in the fiction Ramayana. However if we can make some money out of this fiction so be it

Make it a not a package tour for anyone visiting the Ramayana trail.Like wise there are gourmet groups who visit countries to visit their specialities.we have many ethnic groups in our country and why not give these groups the finest taste of our country along with our spices and tea.

All the tourism earnings will end in Indian pockets. Indian owned Airlines will bring the pilgrims, stay in Indian or Indian controlled hotels/ guest houses, eat food prepared by Indian cooks using Indian foodstuffs and ingredients travel in Vehicles or tours owned or operated by Indians and will return to India in the same Airline. Where is the share of the pie for Sri Lankans. Nothing, but getting closer and engaged with a country that is viewed by many Sri Lankans with many doubts. Our Politicians and Clergy are responsible for our country veering away from a independent non aligned country, to country that has tobe dependant on other countries.

Reminds me of some officers in ministry of cultural affairs who wanted to search for the so called flight used by Ravana, few years back!! Ramayan is an epic and people are being fooled by politicians to gain advantage.

Let it be an epic, mythology, fiction or superstition, SL stands to gain from such tourism. People like Jayampeti, and Harin haters are the real losers

By the foolish logic of some ignorant people on this post, if this proves SL is part of India, then what happens when Chinese tourist visit SL. Do we become part of China
