People & Consent

Who lives where a proposed project would be built, and what does the law require of a project in that place?

Each proposal in India’s environmental clearance register is filed with an application form on which the proponent states where the project would be built, often down to the village. People & Consent reads that location and reports the Census record for the surrounding sub-district or district, covering its population, how people there earn a living and what community infrastructure exists. It then lists the Indian laws and international standards that apply to a project of that type in that place.

The profile is evidence about the people who live there and about what the law requires, and it gives no score or ranking. Whether a project should go ahead is for the authorities to decide, and the profile is meant for anyone following or weighing that decision.

Where proposed projects would be built

Each district is shaded by the measure chosen on the map, counted over the proposals whose application names a site in it. Selecting a district opens its proposals and the Census record of who lives there. An outline marks a district that lies wholly or partly within a Scheduled Area under the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution.

Clearance proposals filed

Environmental clearance proposals in the register that name this district. A proposal naming several districts is counted in each.

Find a proposal

Recent changes →Proposals by district →Time to clearance →

You can search the whole register by project, proponent, district or proposal number. Questions about a place, such as what is proposed in a district and who lives there, are easier to answer from the list of proposals by district, and the page of recent changes follows what has happened to individual proposals.

    Limits of the data

    • The socio-economic figures come from Census 2011, the most recent census for which complete sub-district figures exist, so every population figure here describes India as it was 15 years ago. Census 2027 is under way, with its population count scheduled for February 2027, and none of its figures are published yet.
    • 283 proposals could not be placed in any district. Their location is shown as undetermined, and no district is assumed for them.
    • The register as this instrument reads it begins with proposals submitted in September 2022, so a search for a proposal filed before then finds nothing.
    • Counts of affected and displaced families are the figures each proponent declared in its application. They are the proponent’s own statements, and the pages label them as declared wherever they appear.
    • Whether a place lies within a Scheduled Area under the Fifth Schedule is a legal question settled by Presidential Order. The instrument takes the answer from the Orders themselves, which have been transcribed and cited, and where they do not settle a district it reports the status as not determined. It never infers the status from the share of Scheduled Tribes in the population.
