  • ARUNACHAL DAMS the Dam Debate
    ARUNACHAL DAMS I on behalf of the "Dibang Indigenous Peoples Welfare Society(DIPWS) and the people of twin Dibang Valley district would like to share following few lines as follows:- The Dam Debate The Indian government has in recent years initiated several policies to facilitate investment and utilization of natural resources in Arunachal Pradesh, under which it plans to develop hydropower projects. These power projects have been proposed to meet the increasing demand for energy in the country. However, success of these policies will be determined by careful considerations of multi-faceted problems and the level of public participation. Large dams in Arunachal have the potential to severely alter the cultural and ecological landscape of the region. It will have huge social and environmental costs such as displacement, influx of migrants, and destruction of forests. These devastations weigh heavy on the local tribal people who use these land, water and forest resources as the basis of their livelihood. Recent years has seen protests growing over large dams in Arunachal Pradesh. Several tribal communities in the state are totally opposed to building of multiple mega projects in their homeland. They see dams as threat to their socio-cultural fabric, where forced development will uproot them from their land, home and livelihood. These projects were created as public policies to meet India’s growing demands for energy but have become source of conflict between the government and the people. Although government has forced reconciliation for some of the conflicts, controversy over several of the ongoing projects remains unresolved. Projecting Arunachal as power house of the country Decades of isolation has made Arunachal Pradesh one of the least developed states in the country with fragile infrastructure system and poor resource base.

I am glad that this important occasion gives me an opportunity to offer my comments on some of the economic development issues of the country which relates to the North East Region especially Mizoram. 2. It is a great pleasure for me to note that on the eve of the 11th Five Year Plan, the country's economy is in a much stronger position than it was ever before. We endorse a target of 9% average growth of GDP, 4% agricultural growth, target of creating 70 million new work opportunities, reduction of educated unemployment to below 5%, raising of real wage rate of unskilled workers by 20%, reduction of the headcount ratio of consumption poverty by 10% points and other Monitorables Socio-Economic Targets of the 11th Plan. We also endorse the objectives and strategies adopted to achieve the desired goals set for the 11th Plan. While broadly agreeing with the objectives and strategies which have been envisaged in the approach to the 11th Five Year Plan, by and large, there are a few exceptions that have to be made by taking the ground realities into account as experienced in the N.E.R.

  • South Asian Dams at a Tipping Point? the Case of Tipaimukh Dam in Manipur, India
    www.water-alternatives.org Volume 14 | Issue 2 Somokanta, T.; Feitelson, E. and Tubi, A. 2021. South Asian dams at a tipping point? The case of Tipaimukh Dam in Manipur, India. Water Alternatives 14(2): 491-519 South Asian Dams at a Tipping Point? The Case of Tipaimukh Dam in Manipur, India Thounaojam Somokanta Department of Geography, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel; [email protected] Eran Feitelson Department of Geography, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel; [email protected] Amit Tubi Department of Geography, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel; [email protected] ABSTRACT: While dam building has declined in most developed economies, it has seen an increase in emerging economies, particularly in East and South Asia. Even there, however, such dams are facing mounting opposition. This raises the prospect that dam building is nearing a global tipping point. In this study, we examine the case of the Tipaimukh Dam in Manipur, one of the states in India's peripheral northeast. We ask how such a major project was stopped despite support from powerful national- and regional-level actors. To analyse this case, we build on the Advocacy Coalition Framework and the analytical concepts of growth coalitions and discourse coalitions. The joint application of these concepts enables us to link global advocacy coalitions with local pro- and anti-growth coalitions through the storylines they advance, thereby formulating multiscalar discourse coalitions. This allows us to follow the struggles between pro-dam and anti-dam coalitions, as well as trace the shifts in the composition and focus of coalitions over the 75 years since the Tipaimukh Dam was first proposed.

  • Budget Speech 2004-05
    GOVERNMENT OF MIZORAM BUDGET SPEECH OF PU ZORAMTHANGA CHIEF MINISTER For 2004 – 2005 in the MIZORAM LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY On Monday, th 22nd March, 2004 Aizawl. Mr. Speaker Sir With your permission, I present this august House the second Supplementary Demand for Grants 2003-04, Vote on Account for the months of April, May, June and July, 2004 and the Budget Estimates for the financial year of 2004-05. 2. Before I speak about budgetary matters, I would like to express my gratitude to the people of Mizoram for placing their confidence in my Ministry for the second time. I take this as a challenge to fulfill the aspirations and expectations of the people and I assure you that these aspirations will not be compromised. I am happy to share with you that my Ministry had executed many notable developmental works during the last five years and it is a matter of satisfaction that my Ministry will have an opportunity to complete its on-going works. I would like to place on record my gratitude to the Government of India, without whose support these development activities could not have taken place. 3. As we are all aware, any resources mobilised by us are meagre and do not represent even 10% of the requirement of the State. To improve its finances, the state government has drawn up necessary programmes in line with Government of India’s guidelines in an effort to reduce expenditure and mobilise additional resources. One such scheme, amongst others, is the mandatory 5% annual improvement our revenue deficit to culminate at a zero point in 2004-05, failing which the Government of India will withhold 15% of the Revenue Gap Grant recommended by the Eleventh Finance Commission.
