The Government of India has finally promulgated a rehabilitation policy for project displaced persons (dp). This policy has been in the making since 1985. That year it was found that tribals, who are around 8 per cent of the country's, population constituted 40 per cent of those displaced by development projects. A committee was appointed by the ministry of tribal affairs; it suggested in a draft that a legally binding policy be prepared for all the DPs and Project Affected People (pap)
