The Congress last night said the Sethusamudram Shipping Canal Project (SSCP) should be implemented only after "convincing people' in view of the controversy over dredging of the Ram Sethu, the mythological bridge believed to have been built by Lord Ram, PTI reported. Congress General Secretary and Tamil Nadu-in-charge V Arunkumar told reporters that the Congress wanted to implement the SSCP, which aims to dredge a shipping canal betwen India and Sri Lanka but did not want to hurt the feelings of the people. "We will convince the people and then take up the project,' he said.
