The objectives of the study were: (a) to understand the ground-level perception and experience of the environmental impacts of minor irrigation from the multiple points of view of the stakeholders; (b) to get an idea of the diverse environmental impacts of the MI schemes in the sample blocks; (c) to identify the reasons of the present status of the existing MI schemes as perceived by the different stakeholders; (d) to elicit the stakeholders’ suggestions about rehabilitation of the existing MI schemes in their respective areas and their views on viable alternatives; and, (e) to make a rapid environmental assessment of the project sites with reference to known environmentally sensitive areas.

  • Chapter Five People and Development : Siliguri
    CHAPTER FIVE PEOPLE AND DEVELOPMENT : SILIGURI MUNICIPAL CORPORATION AREA Participation of a city-citizen in development of a city/town majorly imply five aspects- (a) duty to comprehensively avail the existing rights laid down by constitutional provisions, acts, laws, bye-laws and government notifications; (b) duty to press for more justified rights; (c) duty to practice and follow the urban rules and regulations; (d) duty to lodge protest against undutiful behavior of others in public life and (e) duty to vision and initiate newer ideas of development. Let us begin with a unique example of participation of Siliguri dwellers .unheard of, perhaps, in any other ULB of the country. It was in Siliguri and first time in India, perhaps, that a formal referendum was used by any ULB to decide the fate of an important municipal project (The Update 2003 : 2). Its history can be traced to the visit of the Municipal Affairs and Urban Development Minister of the State, Shri Ashok Bhattacharya to the United States in June, 2002 to gain knowledge about better urban environmental management, solid waste management policy and technology options that could benefit ULBs of West Bengal. The tour was sponsored by the US-AEP. There the Minister was introduced to the system of 'referendum' employed by many U.S. States. Such system allows the public to vote on specific initiatives requiring more immediate resolution outside the traditional election periods. This system forced the Minister to comment it as 'real democracy at the grassroots' which was in contrast to what prevailed in India where urban planning decisions are usually not open to public discussion at all, except for electing representatives based on a five-year election system.
