India dam project leaves women without compensation

Women from villages affected by India's Ken-Betwa river-linking project are protesting on unlit funeral pyres, saying they have been denied compensation for land and homes. The Daudhan Dam will displace about 7,000 families, and legal protections are being ignored, leaving women like Gyan Rani Gond with nothing.
