SETHUSAMUDRAM CORPORATION LTD. vs RAMA GOPALAN .

The Supreme Court allowed the transfer of three writ petitions concerning the Setusamudram Project from the High Court of Madras to itself, citing the need for a unified hearing due to overlapping issues. The Court noted that the High Court had previously directed the Union of India to disclose whether an archaeological survey was conducted regarding Adam's Bridge/Rama Setu under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958. The Court emphasized the importance of addressing the petitioners' concerns about potential environmental impacts and the status of the site as a national monument.
