Displacement is forcible removal of population for developmental projects. Which example from the following list does not indicate displacement ?
Answer: B
The example that does not indicate displacement is migration to new township.
Displacement, as the stem defines it, is the forcible removal of people to make way for a development project. Rehabilitation after land is taken for a highway, a wildlife sanctuary or a dam is the classic case: the people move because the state acquires their land.
Migration to a new township is a movement people make by choice, usually in search of work or better amenities. With no forcible removal and no project behind it, it is migration, not displacement.
