JAIPUR: The state government's revenue department is gearing up for framing rules for the new Land Acquisition Act that has come into force from January 1 this year.
The key purpose of this document is to provide an assessment of impacts of Renuka dam from the point of view of those to be affected and analyze the issues in the frame-work of community rights, resource ownership, use and distribution. The role of the state and its policies in the dispossession of local communities, in the context of this project, has been critically reviewed.
