Answer 1

The correct option is C since the dam construction process involves the displacement of the people along with the deforestation activities.

Explanation:

• Construction of the dam activities causes the displacement of the local people and the peasants so that the project will get enough space to carry out the construction activities.
• Apart from this, the dam construction process requires a large amount of work space where the forests need to be cut down so that enough space will be allotted for constructing the dams.
