This document outlines Dr. Rajiv Kumar Garg's presentation on resettlement and rehabilitation of marginalized communities in the context of mining operations. It discusses the growing public unrest against mining companies due to resource overlap between coal, watersheds, indigenous communities, and forests. The presentation examines identifying opportunities by challenging existing practices and frameworks through basic questions. A case study is presented to demonstrate resettlement and rehabilitation efforts, with the takeaway being the need for mining companies to look beyond current policies and achieve strategic agility in dealing with host communities.
