Motia has an area of 526.49 hectares (1,301.0 acres).[1] OverviewThe map shows a hilly area with the Rajmahal hills running from the bank of the Ganges in the extreme north to the south, beyond the area covered by the map into Dumka district. ‘Farakka’ is marked on the map and that is where Farakka Barrage is, just inside West Bengal. Rajmahal coalfield is shown in the map. The entire area is overwhelmingly rural with only small pockets of urbanisation.[2] Note: The full screen map is interesting. All places marked on the map are linked and you can easily move on to another page of your choice. Enlarge the map to see what else is there – one gets railway links, many more road links and so on. DemographicsAccording to the 2011 Census of India, Motia had a total population of 4,746, of which 2,413 (51%) were males and 2,333 (49%) were females. Population in the age range 0–6 years was 858. The total number of literate persons in Motia was 2,521 (64.84% of the population over 6 years).[1] EconomyAdani Power is building a 1,600 MW thermal power plant spread across Motia, Gangta, Gayghat and other adjacent villages in Godda and Poraiyahat CD blocks. It is expected to be operational by 2022. As per a memorandum of understanding signed with Bangladesh Power Development Board, in 2016, Adanis will export the entire power generated to Bangladesh. Adanis would import coal from their Carmichael coal mine in Australia and the coal would come via Dhamra Port owned by Adani Ports & SEZ 700 km away in Odisha. In 2019, it became the first stand-alone power project to secure the status of Special economic zone. Raghubar Das, then Chief Minister of Jharkhand, felt that the Adani power plant at Godda will usher in development and progress in the tribal-domainated area. However, it is facing opposition locally for land acqusution.[3][4][5] EducationGovernment High School Motiya is a Hindi-medium coeducational institution established in 1954.
