520 _aDisplacement of persons from their settlements when their lands are acquired for infrastructure projects is an inevitable process. If development is one side of the coin, displacement of people is the other side. This paper is an attempt to test the displaced people's economic status (whether increased or decreased) in terms of equity ratio due to dam construction. Different types of methodology such as calculation of Equity Ratio, estimation of Pareto distribution, Lorenz curve, Income Mobility Matrix have been used in this study to test the equity impact on different categories of displaced people and we find that for all categories of people, dam tends to promote equity. - Reproduced.
