In this paper, I would like to describe the nature of the Resettlement and Rehabilitation under Mumbai Urban Transport Project in Mumbai Metropolitan Region, India, by locating the project in the context of World Bank's Involuntary Resettlement (IR) policy. This World Bank-funded project, which aims to improve the city's road and rail transport, accompanies resettlement and rehabilitation of over 19000 project-affected families, many of which live in so-called “slums.” This project adopts the IR policy of the World Bank, however, the “gap” between what is required in the policy and how the project is actually implemented on the ground seems to be arising in spite of the Bank's effort. Therefore, the focus in this paper is to provide a framework with a set of concepts in respect to IR, in order to clarify some crucial aspects of the project which should be investigated.
