Dear Ankur, You said "speak as civil voice against this design". Do you really know what the design is? If the dam traps the water in a reservoir and the reservoir does not displace a lot of villagers, I don't see a problem with the reservoir. Also if the water through the turbines is released back into the river, the downstream shouldn't suffer. Is that the design or is it something different? Some good reliable technical information on the design would help the people to join the civil voice. Don't you think so? Dilipda

If completed , this is going to pose serious threat to the downstream population and will be a catastrophe in this seismically sensitive region. The Central and the State Govt should consider all the spects before taking such steps I appeal to all the like minded people to speak as civil voice against this design.
