Framing the ‘Collective Memory’: The Politics of Mobilisations Against Hydropower Projects in Maharashtra, India (1980–2004)
Ch. 1. P. 19–37.
Since the late 1960s, the Indian government has been trying to alleviate drought for rural agriculturalists, especially in drought-afflicted states like Maharashtra. To do this, they have set up several large multipurpose hydropower projects to provide water for agricultural irrigation. However, much of this water does not end up with smallholders and most of the dam water is in fact appropriated by urban and rural elites, as well as industrialists.
