Question

in recent years multipurpose projects and dams have come under great scrutiny and opposition explain the statement by giving example

Answer 1

Because it undergoes many kinds of objection from all sides.
They are as follows:
 SOCIAL PROBLEM:
                                 Due to the construction of high rise dams, a large number of human settlements are submerged in the water of large reservoir formed by the dam and many people are rendered homeless.This creates a social problem.It is, therefore, necessary that all the people who are displaced from the dam site are given adequate compensation by the Government for rehabilitation so as to start their life afresh.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM:
                                                   The construction of high rise dams on the rivers contributes to deforestation and loss of biodiversity.This is because a vast variety of flora and fauna get submerged in the water of large reservoir formed by the dam and disturb the ecological balance.
ECONOMIC PROBLEM:
                                        Some people say that the construction of high rise dams involves the spending of huge amount of public money without the generation of proportionate benefits.On the other hand, others say that there can be no real progress without building dams because they allow us to manage our water resources property and at the same time give us much needed electricity.So, whether the construction of dams on rivers is an economic problem or not is a debatable question.

           The opposition to the construction of Tehri dam on the river Ganga and raising the height of Sardar Sarovar Dam on the river Narmada are due to such problems.We have all heard about the protests by the Narmada Bachao Andolan against the raising of height of Sardar Sarovar Dam. So, before taking a decision to construct high rise dams on rivers, or raising the height of existing dams, it is necessary to consider its long-term effects on social life and environment carefully.
