Pestel framework POSCO

Political
Negotiations with the company took place without taking the local population
into confidence.(democracy only in letter ,not in spirit)
The protest movement got divided on the lines of the political party and there
were apprehensions whether political parties were using the people to serve
their own vested intersts
The various questions were put to scrutiny through various parliamentary
mechanisms like question hour etc
Economic
The proposed project is believed to be a threat to the existing sustainable
livelihoods of local populace which revolves around cultivation of
paan,maach(fish) and paddy
There are doubts over the job creation capacity of the project.it is likely to put
more people out of jobs than create new ones
This is the largest proposed fdi in india as and when it materialises. If this project
does start,it will give a filip to indias image as a leading investment destination
and may have positive spinoffs
Social
The project has ignored social realities like emotional attachment to ancestral
land and traditional occupations
The tribals have a unique self sustainable unique way of living and
mainstreaming them may have repercussions which have not been
considered(eg, bhuyian tribe reference)
The rehabilitation component also ignores realities like joint families by providing
one job per family
The government has had a dismal track record in rehabilitating the people
already displaced

Technological(could not understand this component)

Integrated steel plant is a capital intensive hi-tech project not likely to produce
many jobs

Environmental
The sheer resource intensive nature of the project likely to stretch the already
vulnerable state of orrisa
Mahandi river example,waterfall example
Integrared iron and steel plant is air polluting(references and examples)
References in the passage about how there is no waste management system in
place and about how such projects have lead to droughts in the past
Environmental activists around the world have expressed serious concerns
Legal
Mou expired in 2010,still land being acquired
Orissa govt went out of the way to please investors in groos violations of cats like
Environmental protection act(no environment impact assessment done)
Land acquisition act
Coastal zone regulation act(olive ridley example)
Panchayati raj extension to scheduled areas act(PESA- no gram sabha approvals
obtained which are mandatory under the said act)
