We found that each of the specific social impacts disrupting the well-being of a village community and its degree of severity differs by village occupation. Blocked access and well water salinity were very severe and severe impacts, respectively, on fishing villages but only problematic for the farming communities survived; fodder & fuelwood collection is a severe problem for farming villages while only a nuisance for fishing villages, unemployment is moderately severe for fishing villages while only minor significance for farming villages; agricultural land salinity, however is of moderate severity for both fishers and farmers.
