Narmada Bachao Andolan

It is a federation of Fishworker’s cooperatives. It is an organisation that fights for the rights of the displaced forest dwellers of the Satpura forest in Madhya Pradesh.

The problem of displacement of people and communities is very widespread in our country. Whenever any dam is built or forest areas are declared sanctuaries for animals; it results in the displacement of thousands of people.

 

Effect of Displacement

Such displacement plays havoc in the lives of people. Their life is disrupted in the following ways:

Uprooting of villages: The villagers are forced to leave their homes and build new homes and start life afresh in other locations. The poverty of the people adds to the problem.

Uprooting of bastis: Even in the urban areas, when the bastis where the poor live are uprooted they are forced to move out of the city in far-off places. This disturbs their entire life. The work place and the schools of their children; which were previously accessible; become inaccessible. This severely disrupts their routine because of the distances between the outskirts of the city and the location of their school/place of work.
