    The institution of educating engineers about the importance of dams, and thus having poor knowledge about the socio-economic and ecological impacts of dams create problem in selecting the project. Further, the consultants are generally aware that if they continuously criticize their clients project, they will run out of their job very soon. In addition to it, they have much higher incentives for approving the project than recommending that the project should not go ahead. In case the project turns out to be disastrous, it is the local people who have to pay heavy prices, and not the experts. They will already have received their enumeration a long ago and moved on to other projects. The institutions in India are still not so strong as to make the experts responsible for the disaster, while comparing the post construction situation and what they had predicted before. The experts had predicted that the number of displaced people will be around 100000. But, the real number has now grown to about 50 million, which is vastly higher than their prediction (Roy 1999). Similarly, the claim of the government to generate 1450 MWT power from the Sardar Sarovar dam is over ambitious. The plan of government to generate power, irrigate the fields, and controlling floods are all contradictory. If the government is to carry on these purposes simultaneously, it will end up producing only 50 MWT power…

    • 6 Pages

    Dams of India have been built across many perennial rivers since the independence of India. These dams in India are a part of several multi-purpose projects to serve a variety of needs. In a multi-purpose project, a river forms a unit and a river valley is developed, by exploiting all the resources of the river. Basically, dams are built to harness the river water so that it can be utilised according to the needs. A multipurpose project is launched often for storing water for irrigation purposes, generating hydro-electricity by utilising the water stored by the dams, preventing floods and facilitating afforestation in the catchments areas of the reservoirs. Moreover, the dams also provide drinking water, using the canals for navigation in some areas and also facilitating pisciculture and recreational activities. The main multipurpose projects constituting Indian dams are the Hirakud Dam in Orissa, the Bhakra-Nangal Project in Punjab, the Damodar Valley Project in Bihar and West Bengal, the Tungabhadra Project in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, the Rihand Project in Uttar Pradesh.…
