This book is concerned with the construction of large dams in the context of post Independence developmental politics in India. Based on the analysis of the north Indian Tehri Dam and the recent debate on hydropower projects on the Ganges, it deals with the 'ideological designs' that shaped the implementation of dams in India and juxtaposes them with alternative visions and their political opposition.
