In light of the growing protests against the mega dams coming up in the Brahmaputra and Barak valleys, CDRO decided to send an all-India fact finding team to these areas. An eight member team visited the three states of the north east, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, between 18-23 April 2012. The team specifically looked into the Hydro Electric Projects of Tipaimukh (Manipur), Lower Subansiri, Lower Siang, Demwe and Debang (Arunachal Pradesh).
