Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on Wednesday said the US scientists' claim in a latest TV show that Ram Setu is man-made is already known.
Swami said it was mentioned in a report by retired directed generals of Geological Survey of India which was presented in front of the Supreme Court.
Speaking to ANI, Swamy said, "The U.S. scientists have come forward to say what we already knew...I have said this in the Supreme Court itself that three retired directed generals from Geological Survey of India gave a report which was placed in the apex court to show that this is man-made".
A US TV channel in a show has hinted that Ram Setu bridge was not a natural formation, but is man-made.
He added that the Director Generals of Geological Survey of India after retirement formed a committee and they had come to a conclusion that Ram Setu is a man-made thing because corals cannot be found in the middle of the ocean.
