Abstract
he impact of development induced displacement has been studied for three villages sher da-mayal , khurd and kang gotta syeda by taking a sample size of 15. Education and health facilities
have been identified as major persuading factors compelling people to displace from the place of
origin whereas psychological, cultural and traditional practices are the factors that contribute most
towards keeping people from displacing to other areas. Educated and skilled people have relatively
better opportunities to settle down in urban, sub-urban areas and cities and they seem to be satisfied
with their earnings and work. Uneducated people running small businesses such as grocery shops,
tuck shop, general stores etc after displacement also consider themselves well off and are satisfied
at the place where they were displaced. The benefits of the displacement have largely been enjoyed
by the young and energetic people whereas the older people seemed to be unhappy due to fond
memories and a nostalgic element with their native homes.
