Sri Lanka keen to extend India's RamayanacircuitBosky Khanna, DH News Service, Bengaluru, Jul 24 2017, 1:09 IST

A stall of Sri Lankan Tourism department at the India International Travel Mart: IITM Bangalore 2017 atPalace Grounds, which concluded on Sunday.

Sri Lanka is preparing to be part of the ambitious Ramayana circuit India is planning for tourists. TheIndian government is identifying places connected with the Ramayana, while Sri Lanka has alreadyidentified 71 locations across the island nation for inclusion in the circuit.

The Ramayana describes how Sita, Rama’s wife, is kidnapped by Ravana and taken away to SriLanka. Hanuman then launches a grand operation, building a stone bridge across the sea, to rescueher.

Sri Lankan has appointed a committee to identify more places, John A E Amaratunga, minister oftourism development, told DH.

He was speaking on the sidelines of the 99th edition of the India International Travel Mart, organised bySphere Travelmedia and Exhibition, which concluded on Sunday.

Hallowed spotsAmaratunga said his government had entered into an agreement with the Indian government to createa full circuit.

“We are closely working with various Indian state governments to link all places. The two countriesshare a 5,000-year-old relationship,” he said.

Excavation is on for more places described in the Ramayana. "We aim to complete the entire circuit bythe end of this year. Just like prime minister Narendra Modi, we look at Sri Lanka and all south Indianstates as one unique unit, housing the maximum Ramayana spots,” he said.

The two governments are also working closely on the Buddhist circuit. Not many know that Buddhavisited Sri Lanka three times. The spots he visited are not so well known either, said V Krishnamoorthy,Deputy High Commissioner, Sri Lanka. He said Sita stayed at Sita Vyasa in Sri Lanka, and was takento Ussangoda.

While, Indians identified only one place (Ayodhya) that is connected with Rama, Lankahas identified 71 locations..
