Kota, Sugandh Juneja (2013) Desperate for dam: Government skews facts to plan a project in Rajasthan that will displace 100,000 people. Down To Earth, Vol.21 (16). pp. 25-28. ISSN 0971-8079

The dam is likely to submerge 10,000 hectares (ha), including more than 1,600 ha of forestland. The state government says the dam will completely submerge 17 villages and partially inundate 30 villages. Residents allege that the government’s definition of complete submergence is skewed. “The planned dam will submerge almost 50 villages, but the government does not recognise this,” says Hari Ballabh of Manpura village in Jhalawar.
