In this research paper, different aspects of Mangla dam raising project have been reviewed. The raising project, like the construction of the dam, brought with it the dislocation of a large number of people as one major city and three towns in the state of Azad Jammu and Kashmir have been affected (partially inundated). The affected population of these areas has been offered a generous compensation package by the government and various development projects have been launched for rehabilitation and even uplifting of the living standards of these people. It is too early to comment on the outcome of these resettlement efforts but an attempt has been made to highlight different human issues through an initial socio-spatial impact assessment of the project.
