If environmentally sound, this is good idea. Jobs, tourism, security benefits, besides mutual market access. $5b is not much for India.
Even in TN it has become more of a politician making noise than most ppl really caring. Ppl get involved only when the topic of Tamils slaughtered by SL military but between Rajiv murder, Rajapaks losing and Modi's ability to control the personal fate of Karunanidhi and Jayalalitha thru corruption cases, less and less time is spent on this. But most importantly, ppl have much much much more pressing problems of their own, so even those willing to weep for their SL Tamil brotheren, don't really mean to go beyond expressing sympathy.
If environmentally sound, the tunnel is a great idea in terms of benefits - tourism, mutual market access and jobs. It is a bigger advantage for the smaller partner but that's always the case in most bilateral projects.
Lanka in non issue in our politics except TN. How come you guys club rest of India with TN? Time to educate your populace about how big is India.
