Development-induced
Displacement, Rehabilitation
and Resettlement in India

Compulsory land acquisition and involuntary displacement of communities for a larger public purpose capture the tension of development in the modern state, with the need to balance the interests of the majority while protecting the rights of the minority. In India, informal estimates of involuntary resettlement are around 50 million people over the last five decades, and three-fourths of those displaced still face an uncertain future.

Growing public concern over the long-term consequences of this has led to greater scrutiny of the rehabilitation and resettlement process, particularly for large development projects. This book examines a number of new policy formulations put in place at both the central and state levels, looking at land acquisition procedures and norms for the rehabilitation and resettlement of communities. The book combines a theoretical analysis of the proposed regulatory framework with detailed case studies that examine the application of these norms in specific geographic contexts across the country. It brings together contributory analysis by some of the countrys most engaged administrators, academics, and activists in the field, and is a useful contribution to Development Studies.

Sakarama Somayaji heads the Relocation and Rehabilitation group within The Energy and Resources Institutes (TERI) Social Transformation Division. He has worked extensively on issues pertaining to the rehabilitation of project-displaced people, including three years at the Council for Social Development in New Delhi, India.

Smrithi Talwar is a Fellow and Chief Coordinator of the Director Generals Office in TERI. She has led a multidisciplinary team of specialists in developing and implementing a long-term rehabilitation strategy for project-displaced people in Singrauli District, Madhya Pradesh.
