Abstract
India focused on various developmental projects as well as dam construction after independence. These were regarded as symbol of modern India, though all these helped a lot in developing India. But these mega projects also resulted in displacing millions of people from their ancestral land. The inadequate planning and implementation of various resettlement and rehabilitation policy made lives of displaced people even worse. Once they were rehabilitated no one from the respective government inquired about their wellbeing. They were totally left out the mercy of almighty. This paper is based on secondary sources, and tries to examine various issues among displaced families and their problems they faced. In this paper, it has been seen that the displaced people have faced number of problems, because the state government has not taken seriously their problems. Women and children are the worst victims as they are not considered in the resettlement and rehabilitation policies. Women have hardly any property rights on the land so they are not entitled to compensation. In the name of development, most of the people are affected who belonged to weaker section of the society.
