P R E S E N T E N V I R O M E N TA L I M PA C T S Not much of the scientific studies have been done in this GIDC region of Dahej, On the basis of observation and focused group discussions following turned out to be the key-issues ØWater-borne diseases has increased significantly. Ø Existing water bodies has lost its domestic significance and now serves significantly to the water borne diseases causing dengue, malaria etc. Ø A local fish known as “Hilsa” which was one of the dominant species has extincted possibly due to increase in water pollution from near-by industries or due to over-fishing. Ø A near-by local stream has vanished due to an industrial set-up.

NEAR FUTURE PREDICTIONS As on date the process of establishing new industries is still going on. The peak effects are not observed but with the functionality of all industries following effects may be observed if preventive actions are not taken Ø Effluent discharge from nearby industries may damage the coastal areas, marine life, water table etc. Ø Air quality in terms of SPM, CO, SOx, NOx, CFC, Soot specifically of Suva, Rahiyad and other adjacent villages may undergo significant degradation in near 10 years span as this would get directly influenced by upcoming Adani Thermal Power plant in Suva.

• BHARUCH LOCATED ON THE BANKS OF RIVER NARMADA IS FAMOUS FOR HILSA FISH. THE FISH FROM BHARUCH IS IN HUGE DEMAND IN MUMBAI AND IS EVEN EXPORTED TO MANY FOREIGN COUNTRIES. THE FISH IN COASTAL AREA OF GUJARAT IS KNOWN AS MODENN IF IT IS FEMALE AND PALVA IF IT IS YOUNG MALE. •AS IT IS ANADROMOUS IN NATURE (AN UNCOMMON PHENOMENON IN TROPICAL WATERS), THE ILISH LIVES IN THE SEA FOR MOST OF ITS LIFE, BUT MIGRATES UP TO 1,200 KM INLAND THROUGH RIVERS IN THE INDIAN SUB-CONTINENT FOR SPAWNING.

• FISH PRODUCTION HAS SIGNIFICANTLY GONE DOWN, DUE TO WHICH PRICE HAS INCREASED FROM 300Rs TO 1000rS IN PAST TWO DECADES. • THIS HAS AFFECTED THE ECONOMY OF THE HOUSEHOLDS THAT WERE DIRECTLY DEPENDENT ON FISHING.

• CURRENTLY THERE ARE NO CSR’s OBSERVED IN THE

VILLAGERS ARE CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED.

VILLAGE.

• THE VILLAGERS HAVE A STRONG DESIRE TO WORK IN

• THE INDUSTRIES SHOULD PROVIDE FOLLOWING FACILITIES

THE INDUSTRIES, BUT COULDN’T QUALIFY FOR THOSE

UNDER CSR :

JOBS DUE TO LACK OF EDUCATION AND SKILLS.

• MEDICAL FACILITY SHOULD BE PROVIDED.

• SOME VILLAGERS, WHO ARE CAPABLE OF PURSUING

• TRANSPORT SHOULD BE PROVIDED.

HIGHER STUDIES HAVE SENT THEIR CHILDREN TO

• DRAINAGE AND SANITATION FACILITIES.

BHARUCH, SURAT.

• LOCAL ROADS AND STREET LIGHTS.

• BUT MORE THAN 90% OF VILLAGERS COULD NOT AFFORD TO DO SO. • THUS THE PCPIR, UNDER PPP (PRIVATE-PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP) SHOULD SET UP TRAINING CENTRES,

• WOMEN EMPOWERMENT SHOULD ALSO BE GIVEN PREFFERENCE BY PROMOTING SELF-HELP GROUPS. • SOME TRAINING RELATED TO SMALL SCALE HOME

WHERE THESE VILLAGERS COULD PURSUE TRAINING AT

INDUSTRIES LIKE HANDLOOMS, FOOD, ETC. SHOULD BE

LOWER COSTS AND GAIN JOBS IN THE INDUSTRIES.

PROVIDED THROUGH NGO’s, SO THAT IT MAY HELP THEIR ECONOMY TOO. • SWARNAJAYANTI YOJANA COULD BE QUITE HELPFUL.

IMMIGRATION • THERE IS A LOT OF IMMIGRATION IN THE VILLAGE SINCE THE GIDC HAS STARTED. • MAJORLY THE POPULATION OF THE CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, FROM NORTH INDIA HAVE INCREASED. • CURRENTLY AROUND 300 WORKERS HAVE BEEN IN-MIGRATED IN SUVA. • THESE WORKERS ARE HERE FOR A TEMPORARY STAY WHICH MAY LAST FOR ABOUT MINIMUM 10 YRS. • ALSO IT MAY CONVERT INTO PERMANENT STAY, LOOKING AT THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDUSTRIAL WORKERS IN GIDC. • AS THEY ARE TEMPORARY, THE SOCIAL ASPECT OF THE VILLAGE WILL GET DISTURBED. • ALSO LOOKING AT THE RATE OF IMMIGRANTS, HOUSING MAY BECOME A CRUCIAL PROBLEM. • CURRENTLY, THE LOCAL PEOPLE HAVE RENTED THEIR HOUSES TO THESE IMMIGRANTS. • AND SOME IMMIGRANTS HAVE CONSTRUCTED TEMPORARY STRUCTURES. • THE PCPIR SHOULD PROVIDE THESE IMMIGRANTS PROPER HOUSING AT STRATEGIC LOCATION, SO THAT THE SOCIAL FABRIC OF THE VILLAGE REMAINS INTACT. • THESE HOUSING MAY BE CONSTRUCTED UNDER PPP MODEL, WHERE THE GOVT. AND PCPIR COULD PROVIDE SOME HELP TO THE VILLAGE PANCHAYAT AND VILLAGERS.
