Anti-Adivasi and Anti-Dalit Actions

Anti-Adivasi and Anti-Dalit Actions

Narendra Modi’s actions have also impacted adivasis and dalits, as dams on the river Narmada have forcibly displaced hundreds of thousands across the states of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat, without their consent and without provisions for resettlement and rehabilitation. Sardar Sarovar, which Modi cites as Gujarat's majestic achievement, is a gigantic dam expected to displace 200,000 people and negatively impact another 200,000. Modi has used the dam's apparent 'success' to deflect attention from his government's complicity in the events of 2002.[61]
