Abstract
Lives turned upside down the livelihood of 4,000 families of 44 relocated villages around Tawa reservoir in Madhya Pradesh's (mp's) Hoshangabad district is under threat. Fishing in the reservoir has been banned with immediate effect on the ground that the reservoir is under the Satpura National Park's protected forest cover. "Posters calling for an immediate ban have been distributed in the villages and have led to widespread panic among fisherfolk. Their only source of livelihood is fishing and strip farming around the reservoir," rues Sunil Gupta of Tawa Matsya Sangh (tms), a cooperative of fisherfolk.
