A Correct answer
Explanation

The Sethusamundram Shipping Canal Project aims to create a shipping route through the shallow waters between India and Sri Lanka. By dredging a canal in the Palk Strait and Gulf of Mannar, it would allow ships to travel between the east and west coasts of India without navigating around Sri Lanka. The project has faced environmental and religious controversies over the years.
