Rampur Hydropower Project : Land Acquisition, Resettlement and Community Development Practices
SJVN Limited (SJVNL), a mini ratna
public sector undertaking of the Government of India (GoI),
is implementing the World Bank funded 412 MW
run-of-the-river hydro power project at Rampur in Himachal
Pradesh, immediately downstream of and in cascade operation
with the 1500 MW Nathpa Jhakri Hydroelectric Project (NJHP).
Located in Shimla and Kullu districts, the Rampur Project
involves the construction of a 15.17 km, 10.5 m of diameter,
head race tunnel that delivers water to a power house with
six turbine generators. The project-affected area covered
eight panchayats. SJVNL required 80 hectares of land for
building project infrastructure such as offices, power
house, dumping sites, and quarry and site establishments. Of
this, 50 hectares of state forest land was acquired from the
Government of Himachal Pradesh and 30 hectares of private
land from 167 landowners in four villages of three
panchayats in Kullu and Shimla districts.
