Introduction 1.1 INTRODUCTION India has the largest concentration of tribal people anywhere in the world except perhaps in Africa. The tribals are children of nature and their lifestyle is conditioned by the Eco-system. India, with a variety of ecosystems, presents a varied tribal population throughout its length and breadth. The site for proposed coal mine is located in Chhattisgarh. The project proposes to acquire land from Twnty villages namely Budiya, Bagbadi, Tehlirampur, Aamgaon, Tapranga, Tangarghat, Telaipara, Dhaurabhatha, Nagramuda, Jhinkabahal, Libara, Jhama, Raipara, Samkera, Mahloi, Khuruslenga, Bijana, Pata, Dolesara and Kunjemura. In the process of acquisition of land, existing socio-economic and cultural profile plays an important role in ensuring the livelihood of the affected persons. So it is essential to develop a proper understanding of the affected people, their capabilities and their aspirations from the project. In order to explore the above-mentioned aspects, data was collected from both secondary and primary sources. To evaluate tribal socio-economic dynamics detailed study has been taken up by the proponent so as to minimize the conflicts and design way forward for any involuntary development issues arising due to siting of the TRIBAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROPONENT: GSECL GARE PELMA SECTOR –I 1-1 COAL MINE PROJECT CONSULTANT: GCPL 1 industry. Evaluation plan focuses on the assessment of negative impacts on the habitant particularly tribals by the project implementation. 1.2 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT Gujarat State Electricity Corporation Limited (GSECL) is a Government of Gujarat company, registered under the Company Act, 1956 with the responsibility of power generation in the state of Gujarat. The Company was promoted by erstwhile Gujarat Electricity Board (GEB) as it’s wholly owned subsidiary in the context of liberalization and as a part of efforts towards restructuring of the power sector. As a part of the reform process, the Government of Gujarat has unbundled the various functions of GEB. As a result of this unbundling, Gujarat State Electricity Corporation Limited (GSECL) has taken up the responsibility of electricity generation. Electricity Transmission has been entrusted to the already existing company - GETCO. Distribution network in the state has been split up among four distribution companies, which cater to the northern, central, southern, and western parts of the state respectively. All these companies have been structured as subsidiaries of a holding company, Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL). GUVNL is also the single bulk buyer in the state as well as the bulk supplier to distribution companies. The Memorandum and Articles of Association of GSECL envisage a wide spectrum of activities to improve the electricity infrastructure of Gujarat. GSECL has initiated its activities in the field of power generation. The Government of Gujarat (GoG) has also given to GSECL the status of Independent Power Producer (IPP) with approval to undertake new power projects. The Company commenced its commercial operation in the year 1998. However, the operations of GSECL were limited to Power Stations of Gandhinagar Unit 5, Wanakbori Unit 7, Utran GBPS and Dhuvaran CCPP till the complete unbundling of erstwhile GEB was undertaken, i.e. up to 31st March 2005. Presently GSECL is having existing power generation capacity of 6156 MW and proposals of TRIBAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROPONENT: GSECL GARE PELMA SECTOR –I 1-2 COAL MINE PROJECT CONSULTANT: GCPL 1 capacity enhancement by adding another 6400 MW coal based TPP.
