sadder sarovar

Answer 2

Schemes like the Sardar Sarovar Project and the Tehri Dam Project have encountered resistance from the local people because of the displacement and migration of the local community.

Campaigns like 'Narmada Bachao Andolan' and 'Tehri Dam Andolan' have combated the projects because the local population have dissipated from their land holdings and thus their subsistence. Parks and wild-life get swamped and this destruction is unchangeable or restricted. Dams and reserves alter the sedimentation of the streams. There is extreme trash which is deposited at the reservoir and the deeply reaches at a solid river bed.

Moreover the rockier patches, in turn, embarrass the marine life in the rivers. The movement of marine fauna is prohibited due to dams. In floodplains, extensive areas are swamped due to reservoirs and this commences to soil disintegration and richness is washed away over a span of time.
