The comments made on this burning issue were pasted below as:
......................................................
The people scarified their land are in DARK and POOR. Yes, it is the reality brought out in the study made under Silence is the best policy (DTE, 15th Nov. 2012). Certainly, SILENCE is not the best policy as there exists several ways to express it. Some of the suggestions includes:
1. The situation of the people is complex and needs immediate attention of the concerned authorities.

2. It reflects the poor and unmatched resettlement & rehabilitation packages, which should be mandatory for all the project affected people (PAPs) which includes their surrounding environment both before and after resettlement,

3. The control mechanism at all levels should keep the health & wealth of the people & environment in mind,

4. The whole process of exploitation and generation of power is aimed as BUSINESS of selected group of people rather than the larger group of people who sacrificed their land and other community resources.

In spite of all adverse challenges, using the available technologies, concerned authorities can improves the situation where people can live with better quality of life. On the other side, it will become good role model for others to accept and support such developmental projects.

Looking forward for better sharing and solutions for the health and wealth of the people who are suffering ....

with thanks
