Abstract

Abstract

Hydropower potential of Arunachal Pradesh is enormous. The state is basically tribal dominated. The life style of the people is fast changing. The resource base of the state is not sufficient to meet the aspiration of the people. In that context hydropower has come as a boon to the economy of the state. Nearly 133 Memorandum of Understanding were signed between the power developers and the Government during last few years to harness power. It has resulted in public protest and stoppage of many projects. In that context the present attempt has analysed the different dimensions of the issues and suggested few measures such that power potential is sustainably harnessed for a better future.
