You are tribal and poor villagers living in the Narmada Valley in India.Since the 80's State and Federal Governments have been implementing a huge project "development to construct several dams along Narmada Valley to generate hydro- electricity. The dams have and will continue to displace hundreds of thousands of indigenous people and poor communities from their land. Governmental promises to provide housing and livelihood for displaces villager have often stop the Narmada project has grown. the movement employs non- violent ( ahimsa) strategies including rallies , hunger strike refusing to leave villagers being flooded by raising waters.



QUESTION:

1) From you faith perspective, suggest strategies that support the worldview that "ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE"
2) Discuss "AHIMSA"
3) if you were in the shoes of the villagers , being ( community leader) or an( ordinary citizen) what will you do to resolve conflict?
5) what was the federal gov't doing to resolve the conflict?
