Abstract: Growth aims at reducing inequality. Paradoxically, the ongoing development phase in Odisha not only deepened but also expanded the deprivation and triggered displacement on a large scale. In the case of the development model of Odisha, displacement caused by major projects has in reality resulted in the redistribution of wealth from the poorer segment of society to the privileged. Mega dams, thermal power plants, mining, and industrial ventures produce development victims. It can be seen that the larger the project for growth, the greater the centralised control over it. This centralization has a preference for big landholders, prosperous farmers, developers, bureaucrats and politicians. The large-scale development projects are planned primarily to increase the power of state and private capital and they are unable to represent or reflect the needs of the vast majority of the population. With the State's conquest of forests, forest-dwellers' traditional or customary rights were eventually turned into privileges, and even further into concessions. This paper stresses the method of creation in Odisha and its consequences to resolve the problem of human displacement. It also seeks to reassert the protection of the rights of displaced peoples and what needs to be discussed today is the right to growth, through which all of their fundamental rights and freedoms are realised. It concludes that while construction of the infrastructure is important, it must be implemented with a human face in order to mitigate the impact of displacement and achieve the objective of inclusive growth.
