Abstract
People move from one place to another for various reasons. Some get displaced from the place they reside for reasons like clash and discrimination, natural disasters like floods, droughts, famine and other reasons. The displacements can be of temporary or permanent nature for reasons like betterment of economic status, seasonal employment, casual employment, contract employment and others. Sometimes the Government takes initiatives to evacuate people to safer habitats to avoid violence, hazards and the like. The present paper accounts for the displacement of people with the special focus on Development – Induced Displacement.
