Abstract

To every political policy, economic and development project, on the one side there is welfare in terms of benefits reaped by some section of population and on the other side it increases sorrows and despair to others. Ongoing industrialisation, electrification and urbanisation processes are likely to increase, rather than reduce, the number of programmes causing involuntary population displacement. Causes or categories of development-induced displacement include the following: water supply (dams, reservoirs, irrigation); urban infrastructure; transportation (roads, highway, canals); energy (mining, power plants, oil exploration and extraction, pipelines); agriculture expansion; parks and forest reserves; and population redistribution schemes. The present paper discusses about the political as well as social impacts of Displacement in India.
