Madhya Pradesh to probe Ken-Betwa project rehabilitation complaints

Madhya Pradesh to probe Ken-Betwa project rehabilitation complaints

The Madhya Pradesh government has promised to investigate complaints about the rehabilitation of families displaced by the Ken-Betwa Link Project.

This project, which aims to transfer water from the Ken River to the Betwa River, has affected thousands of families.

The government says almost all families have been compensated, but the opposition claims there are serious irregularities.

They say some families were left out of surveys and compensation was not given correctly.

The government has agreed to look into these complaints and complete the investigation within a month.

Protests have been happening because of these issues, and the government says most of the benefits have already been given out.
