Answer:
The
main reason for the protest was that the local communities were being displaced
from where they lived and were also losing their livelihood. They wanted proper
relief and rehabilitation (R and R here in after) through a grant for building
their new homes, plots in the new location where they were being shifted and jobs
or opportunities for setting up their businesses at the new location.
The government was very slow in granting these facilities for many
reasons. One was that a very large number of people were being displaced.
Another reason was that the amount of money required for R and R was too high
and had not been budgeted for in the cost analysis for the project. Another
reason could be that the officials managing the R and R were too slow in
processing this requirement.
