Question

Explain Resettlement and Rehabilitation of people affected by developmental project with a case study.

Answer 1

the construction of the project. However, the project authorities by using these processual strategies take their rights to displace people from their hearths and homes but without having a qualm of introspection that the project displaced people hardly have their rights to development after displacement. However, the resettlement and rehabilitation policy seems to be resolving the crisis of human displacement versus economic development but to what extent it does remains a significant research query. Our overviews on Dam projects reveal a divergence thesis of human displacement versus economic development for the possibility of their convergence. In this context, the displacement projects in Odisha have been undergoing lots of changes and challenges in the last several decades. The paper analyses the Dam project caused land acquisition and related resettlement and rehabilitation issues in Odisha. The annals of such studies will help rectifying the problems related to resettlement and rehabilitation issues in the country.
