 While development projects are important for the country, sometimes such projects end up destroying the common man's livelihood due to the government's lack of planning. The high-voltage, direct-current transmission project, which was formulated to bring electricity from Raigarh in Chattisgarh to Pughalur in Tirupur district of Tamil Nadu and then to Trishur in Kerala, seems to be one such project. As per news reports, the Ministry of Power under the Government of India approved the project in 2014 at an estimated cost of Rs. 1500 crore. According to the proposed project, large-scale power towers are to be set up along the specific routes. In Tamil Nadu, this route covers 13 districts including Tirupur, Coimbatore, E-Road, Namakal, Kaurur, Tiruchi, Selam, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri, Velur, Tiruvannamalai, Vilupuram and Dindigal. The high-voltage supply generated from the various sources will be carried out through these towers. But the issue of concern here is that large tracts of farming land fall within these planned routes, leading to huge numbers of farmers losing their farmlands during the land acquisition process.
