Shubho Ghosh lays bricks at the construction site and talks to himself. But when it comes to "coal projects", the 26-year-old young man has obvious anxiety. As he later revealed, his family was very worried, very worried. A resident of Makdamnagar, Birbhum District, West Bengal, located in the tip of what is said to be India's largest coal mine project, Ghosh fears that in the coming months, when coal work is about to come, the family will face a double blow. Mine hastened the pace. They live in Makdamnagar in the Ghosh Para area in the Deocha-Pachami coal block area. Saldanga is about 10 kilometers away from their home-Shubho's father Debashis operates a drill in a quarry there, and his brother Subal operates a "pokland" (excavator) machine in another quarry-also part of the proposed coal mine .

"Our family is on the verge of losing work and home. My father is getting anxious," Shubo told Mongabay-India. He operated excavators in quarries in winter and summer, and worked as a mason during the monsoon season, when the quarry had limited production capacity due to the accumulation of water in the pit.

According to data from the West Bengal State Government, Makdamnagar has 438 households and is the largest of the 12 villages distributed on the coal block in the Mohammad Bazar Community Development Zone in Birbhum District, where the Deocha-Pachami coal mine project is planned to be launched.

Recently, the government stated that there are 1.198 billion tons of coal and 1.4 billion cubic meters of basalt reserves, and the government will invest Rs. 3500 billion rupees (3500 billion rupees) projects, except for the rupees. 10,000 crore (1,000 crore) is used for relief and rehabilitation. More than 21,000 people live in the 4,314 houses in the coal area, including 9,034 from the predetermined tribe (ST) and 3,601 from the predetermined caste (SC) community.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee stated in a tweet last year that the state “will create a model for India to execute large-scale projects like Deocha Pachami Coal Block”, and will “make use of best mining practices in the public’s Complete with full support" in a time-bound manner. "

But Shubo was not convinced. He said that if the government forcibly evicts people, there will be resistance. He said: "No one wants to leave their homeland and go to an unknown place with an uncertain future."

This conversation took place in October 2021, just a few weeks before Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced the compensation package in the state assembly. But even five days after her announcement, local residents were not sure whether it was acceptable.

The government’s package says that those who own land and houses will be compensated in a variety of ways: they will receive rupees. For each large hectare (0.33 acres) 10-13 lakh rupees (1 million rupees), another rupees. 550,000 (550,000 rupees) for relocation related expenses and 600 square feet of rehabilitation colony houses. In addition, each family that has lost land and/or houses and a member of the tenant farming family working on these plots will work as a junior police officer at the State Police Department. A total of 4,942 people will get the job. In addition, about 3,000 workers of the existing crusher installation will receive a "maintenance fee" of Rs. 10,000 per month per year, and 160 agricultural workers will receive rupees. According to the MGNREGA (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act) plan, 50,000 is used as a one-time compensation and 500 days of work. The Chief Minister announced that the rehabilitation area will include roads, drinking water connections, electricity, health centers, affordable stores, anganwadi centers, banks, playgrounds, community centers, places of worship, and nearby crematoriums and cemeteries.

Judging from the content of the compensation, the idea of ​​restoring the size of colonial houses is obviously opposed by the local aborigines. "We can't adjust in a narrow space. Who knows whether there will be land for cultivation, or whether water for drinking, housework, and agriculture is easily available, or whether the land is in good yield?" asked Momoi Mardi, a resident of Harmadanga village.
