1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. During the DPR preparation stage, PMU has taken all efforts to minimize the impact on land/structures and livelihood of villagers. Out of the 89 sub-project roads chosen for implementation, 5 sub-projects were having resettlement impacts, of which one road has the issue of land acquisition.

2. The key observations of the monitoring on the social safeguards in general and RP implementation in particular are summarised as follows:

• NGO along with PMU/PIU has played appreciative role in carrying out extensive meaningful consultations, interactive meetings and discussions with individual affected household with respect to compensation and resettlement assistance. The rapport established by the NGO at the site has resulted in the smooth and timely implementation of the RP. The communities are aware of the project and have positively participated in the project activities. No outstanding grievances were reported during the construction stage or while during the monitoring exercise;

• Joint verification by PMU/PIU Personnel, Revenue Department officials and NGO representative has identified the eligible affected household for compensation and resettlement assistance. As a result of the effective joint verification the number of eligible affected household reduced to 45 from the previous number of 54;

• During the DPR preparation stage, total 11 numbers of affected households would be having impact on land. However, during ground verification, a Gol-Khata was identified in which 27 Title owners with appropriate ownership documents was found eligible for compensation and assistance as per the guidelines of ADB and the Resettlement Framework;

• Compensation for the affected land was given as per the latest Circle Rates1 and was agreed upon through individual consultations with affected households. Compensation for affected structures were estimated based on latest Basic Schedule for Rates/ Circle Rates following the principles as per the agreed Resettlement Framework. The payment for structures was disbursed in two instalments i.e. the actual cost of structure excluding the depreciation value and the deducted deprecation amount following the entitlements matrix and ADB guidelines.

• The identified APs were not displaced from the existing location and also all the affected land/structure are viable even after due impact. The impact was not found significant on the primary source of income of the identified affected households. A total amount of Rs. 39,05,611/- has been paid to 45 AHs in four respective sub-project roads;

• Institutional arrangements followed the guidelines of Resettlement Framework. Resettlement Cell with support from Social Officer and AROs at PIU level has regularly monitored the RP implementation. Joint site verification, preparation of micro plan, disbursement of payments were done with due adherence to the agreed Resettlement Framework.

3. The monitoring of the RP implementation has been carried out by CSCs in view of ADB Safeguard Policy Statement and the Resettlement Framework agreed upon by PWD, Government of Uttarakhand as part of the USRIP loan agreement. The methods followed for the monitoring included (i) review and appraisal of sub-project reports and documents such as Resettlement Plan, Resettlement Framework, Indigenous Peoples Planning Framework, (ii) consultations with PMC and RP implementing NGO (iii) on-site observations and interactive meetings and discussions with the APs and other stakeholders.

4. Overall, the implementation of RP was carried out systematically by the PMU/PWD, with the facilitation of NGO- HIFEED. The entire exercise followed the ADB Social Safeguard Policies and Procedures. While, the negative impacts were minimised in some of the road sub projects by way of adjusting road width, the affected households on the other hand, were duly compensated through negotiated prices with prior consultation. The affected persons were found informed, aware and positive to the project activities.

1 Circle rates are rates for land and structures, which are calculated by appropriate government based on area, locality, distance from road head etc. and the same get revised after every two years or as decided by the District Magistrate.

MONITORING OF SOCIAL SAFEGUARDS

2. PROJECT BACKGROUND

5. India and State of Uttarakhand envision a reduction in poverty and an increase in personal incomes by improving personal mobility and accessibility through increased investment in road infrastructure. Investments under the Road Development Plan (RDP) include seven sequential projects to be implemented under the Uttarakhand State Road Investment Program between 2007 and 2017. For this purpose, a Framework Financing Agreement (FFA) was signed between Asian Development Bank (ADB) and Government of India (GoI) on 14 November 2006 with regard to Uttarakhand State Road Investment Program (USRIP). Subsequently on 18 December 2006, the Board approved the provisions of loans under a Multitranche Financing Facility (MFF) in an aggregate amount up to $550 million to India for the investment program to finance part of the RDP. The loan amounting to $150.00 million for project III was negotiated on 24 December 2013 by the GoI and ADB and made effective on 28th January, 2014 by ADB. A total investment of $227.55 million was earmarked for Project III, with $150 million to be financed by loan from ADB.

3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

6. The scope of infrastructure improvement component in Project III includes the strengthening and reconstruction of the selected sections of state highways, major district roads, and other district roads. The right-of-way (RoW) varies as there are roads that shall be widened to 5m or 7m for carriageways, but the existing 3.5 m single-lane carriageways will be retained. USRIP Phase- III is composed of 89 roads with a total length of 1036 km. Out of the 89 roads, 5 were found to have social impacts due to strengthening of roads and accordingly 5 Resettlement Plans (RP) have been prepared to guide the PWD in compensating and assisting the loss of 45 affected households. This report is the outcome of the monitoring carried out by the CSCs along with Project Management Unit (PMU) of RP implementation. Details of 5 roads having resettlement impact are given in Table 1.

7. Kalsi-Berath Khai Motor Marg to Kaha Nehra Unaha Motor Marg: The selected road is a Village Road with single road specification and is proposed to be strengthened to a standard single lane with the carriageway of 3.75 meters. The road is kutcha and the width varies between 4.2 to 5.5 meters. Since it has been decided to use the formation width, the question of land acquisition is ruled out. RP has identified 2 affected households, whose water mill is affected. These affected households are identified as non-titleholders [encroachers]. However, as both the households belong to vulnerable category were found eligible for compensation as per the entitlement matrix.

8. Sahiya Damta – Panuwa to Maletha Datunu Badnu Motor Marg: the Sahiya Damta – Panuwa Motor Marg to Maletha Datunu Badnu Motor Road subproject located in Kalsi block of Dehradun district. The selected road is a Village Road with single road specification and is proposed to be strengthened to a standard single lane with the carriageway of 3.75 meters. The road is kutcha and the width varies between 4.5 to 5.5 meters. There is no land acquisition envisaged in this road. RP has identified an affected household whose cattle shed is affected, which encroached into the RoW. The affected household belong to vulnerable category and found eligible for compensation.

9. Raitoli- Jasholi Motor Marg: The selected road is a Light Vehicle Road with single road specification and is proposed to be upgraded to village road with the carriageway of 3.75 meters. The existing carriageway varies between 2.7 meters to 4.0 meters. Since the existing RoW is only 6 meters further 6 meters land is needed to be acquired throughout the road length (4.63 km) in order to improve the curves and establish total formation width as 5.95 meters. The joint verification by Revenue Department and PIU/PMU personnel along with RP implementing NGO has found an area of 4070 square meter of private land for acquisition. The DPR consultant recorded 11 affected households in the RP of Raitoli – Jasholi road subproject, out of which one land account has many shareholders who were not traced at the time of DPR preparation. However, after verification of NGO an additional 27 shareholders (titleholders) who were being affected had claimed for their ownership with required evidences duly verified by the revenue department and compensated accordingly. Therefore, the number of APs in Raitoli- Jasholi road subproject has increased substantially from 11 to 38.

10. Mayali-Jakholi Motor Road: The Mayali – Jakholi road subproject is located in the Jakholi block of Rudrapryag District. The road is passing through the mountainous terrain and is categorized as Village Road. There is no land acquisition envisaged in this road sub-project. RP has identified 4 affected households, whose commercial structure was being partially affected due to the proposed strengthening.

11. Pauri Bend -Magnesite Factory (Parlichina- Magnesite Factory): The selected road is other district road (ODR) with single road specification and is proposed to be upgraded from single to single lane up gradation with 3.75 meters carriageway including hill side drains and shoulders. The existing carriageway varies between 3.2 meters to 3.75 meters. There is no land acquisition involved in this road sub-project. There are 4 affected households identified for resettlement assistance.

3.1 POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK

12. The resettlement principles adopted for this Project recognize the Government of India’s Land Acquisition Act (1894), National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy (2007), and ‘Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, and the relevant Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) policies and operations manuals, in particular the Safeguard Policy Statement (2009), and Operations Manual F1 (2010).

13. On account of these legal provisions, the Resettlement Framework (RF) approved for this project stipulates for compensation and assistance to all eligible APs irrespective of their customary rights of occupancy/titles and includes those who (i) lose/reduce land, (ii) source of income is adversely affected, (iii) houses and structures partially/fully demolished, (iv) other properties such as crops, trees, and other assets or access to these properties are reduced or damaged due to the project. A copy of Entitlement Matrix which is part of the Resettlement Framework is given in Annexure-1.

14. In addition to the RF, the project has an exclusive IPP Framework in place intended to guide the selection and preparation of sub-projects where impacts on tribal people are identified to ensure better distribution of the project benefits and promote development of the indigenous peoples in the Project areas. The IPP Framework seeks to ensure that indigenous peoples and tribal communities are informed, consulted and mobilized to participate in the sub-project preparation.

15. In USRIP, the PMU/PIU adopted ‘negotiated land acquisition’ which is been in practice in the state for linear acquisition since long back to avoid lengthy litigation process of Land Acquisition Act.

ADB also encourages negotiated settlement as it is normally a faster and more effective arrangement than expropriation 2 .Further, in this RPs implementation process the Circle Rates 3 given to the titleholders for negotiated land acquisition are found suitable by APs and have also given their consent during consultations in this regard.

16. Compensation for affected land/assets is based on replacement-cost principle in which a ‘Valuation Committee’ is established at the district level responsible for (i) independent valuation of land/other assets and (ii) completion of land acquisition on behalf of PWD, Govt. of Uttarakhand.

3.2 IMPLEMENTATION OF RESETTLEMENT PLAN

17. In this project 5 RPs were prepared by the DPR consultant in which, 4 were found suitable for the implementation. The execution of the RP of the project is an important component of the project implementation, which has several activities to be performed such as appointment and mobilisation of NGO, verification of affected persons, preparation of micro plan and identity cards, distribution of compensation and appraisal of other R&R issues, which is to be executed either before construction work or in between implementation of the project. For compliance of ADB’s Resettlement Policy, Social Expert of PMU has been made accountable and responsible for implementation of RP with the help of NGO, appointed for the exclusive task.

3.3 INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT FOR SOCIAL SAFEGUARD

18. There is a dedicated Project Management Unit exclusively for the execution of USRIP, with an Project Director (PD) in lead role. Two officers in the rank of Executive Engineer at PMU assist the PD in overall management of the project. There are two dedicated Subject Specialists placed at PMU respectively for the management of environmental and social safeguards since the inception of the Project. These Specialists are adequately qualified with about 10 years of functional experience in environmental and social safeguards management in infrastructure development projects. For implementation of projects total 11 PIUs were established for 18 different packages. These PIUs are under the direct supervision of Executive Engineers of respective Divisions. At PIU level a resettlement cell headed by a Resettlement Officer (RO) in the rank of Assistant Engineer has also been established for the project to take care of safeguard issues.

19. A Non Government Organization named Himalayan Institute for Environment, Ecology and Development (HIFEED) was hired for Implementation of RP and has entrusted the task of implementing rehabilitation and resettlement under USRIP-3 as per the guidelines of ADB. The contract agreement with HIFEED was signed on 18th February 2013 and the work was started on 25th February 2013. The role and responsibilities of NGO is summarized as follows:

� Information campaign o Verification of APs as per RPs o Preparation of leaflets for information sharing o Conduct meeting of APs and distribution of leaflets

� Identification of APs and Updating of Database o Preparation of ID cards o Provide information of RP updating o Collection of supporting documents

� Participation in Grievance Redress o Verify the R&R cost for disbursement of compensation, assistance, transitional allowance

� Livelihood Restoration o Identifying APs for training and impart training

� Relocation and Rehabilitation Assistance o Disbursement of compensation, assistance and assist in displacement of structures

� HIV/AIDS Awareness o Coordinate with state AIDS Control Society for technical assistance o Preparation of leaflets for information sharing among high-risk community

� Assist PMU/PIU to ensure that contracts comply with applicable labour laws (incl. child labour) and gender issues

� Preparation of Micro Plan and Due Diligence Report as ADB’s Safeguard Policy

20. The RP implementation NGO has carried out the entire above mentioned task to the satisfaction of PMU. However, the process of disbursement of compensation was slightly delayed in view of Uttarakhand natural disaster occurred in June 2013.

3.4 EXTERNAL MONITORING

21. Monitoring is a key activity in RP implementation in order to achieve resettlement objective as per ADB’s safeguard guidelines. The responsibility of external monitoring in this project is entrusted with Construction Supervision Consultants (CSCs). There are altogether 4 construction supervision consultants mobilized for USRIP –III having 89 road sub projects. However, only CSC -1, 3, & 4 are having road sub projects where RPs were implemented. The name of CSCs responsible for external monitoring of RP implementation is given in Table3.

3.5 GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL MECHANISM

22. Resettlement Framework insists forming of a Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC) at the PIU level to deal with the disputes of APs and facilitate timely implementation of the sub-project. The GRC would be headed by the DC or a representative from Collector’s Office. The members of the GRC would include representative from PIU office, representative of APs particularly of the vulnerable AP, representative from local government and RP implementing NGO.

23. There are no outstanding grievances recorded to be taken up to the GRC. NGO had carried out an appreciative job in this respect. The interactive discussions during the post-disbursement of compensation also revealed that APs are satisfied with the sup-project implementation works.

3.6 MONITORING AND REPORTING

24. As discussed above, monitoring of the RP implementation is a critical activity in social safeguards. Monitoring involves periodic checking to ascertain whether activities are carried out according to the RP and in accordance with the existing laws of Government of Uttarakhand and ADB guidelines. It provides the necessary feedback for project management to keep the programme on schedule. The implementation of the RP has been closely monitored by the R&R Expert of CSCs. The CSCs were mobilized in between last quarter of 2013 and first quarter of 2014. This consolidate monitoring report is the outcome of periodic monitoring of the RP’s implementation by the CSCs safeguard experts.

3.7 INFORMATION DISCLOSURE AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION

25. Resettlement Framework along with Entitlement Matrix was translated into local language (Hindi) and distributed to the people during the focus group discussions and public meetings. NGO has disseminated the relevant project information through an information campaign which was carried out during the month of March 2013. A copy of the information sharing leaflet is enclosed as Annexure-6.

26. Meaningful consultations with affected persons were carried out during DPR preparation and RP implementation and will be a continuing process throughout overall project implementation. Apart from APs, the consultations were held with various administrative agencies directly and indirectly involved with the sub-project implementation. The most essential action that the PWD has carried out were the consultations with people along the road corridors who suggested for the reduction on width of RoW, and asked about the compensation and the types of assistance that would be provided for those that shall be affected by the road. The best example on the outcomes produced out of the consultations was the reduction in the widths of RoWs that eventually reduced the substantial number of APs. Consultations on compensation were also held with the heads of affected households by the staff of the Project Management Unit (PMU) prior to payment of compensation. The details of consultation meetings held are given below in table-5.

3.8 PREPARATION OF MICRO PLAN AND COMPENSATION SCHEDULE

27. In accordance with updated RP and after joint verification Micro Plan was prepared by the NGO and was duly verified by the Executive Engineer of the concerned PIU and Social Expert at PMU. The approved micro plan was kept ready by PMU for disbursement in the month of June 2013. However, the actual disbursement of compensation was slightly delayed due to the overall disturbances caused to the government systems in Uttarakhand mainly because of the natural disaster occurred in the month of June 2013.

3.9 LAND ACQUISITION AND COMPENSATION FOR AFFECTED PERSONS

28. Land acquisition was unavoidable in one of the Subprojects- Raitoli-Jasholi Road in which, a total area of 4070 sq.mtr land belonging to a total number of 38 households has been affected. During the DPR preparation, the total number of affected households was identified as 11, in which one

account is having a a Gol-Khata4 (Joint Account), later in joint verification discovered as owned by

27 titleholders having required documents of ownership. The compensation for the affected land has been decided based on one-to-one consultation with the respective land owners, in which they have agreed upon the latest circle rate as compensation. Being this a hilly stretch and also the affected area of land for each individual land owners is minor, all the affected households agreed to the latest circle rates which are at par with market rate in the region. PIU has sent a letter to the concerned Revenue Department under reference Number 884/5C dated 05-06-2013, regarding joint inspection and finalisation of land compensation based on mutual consent. The details of land acquired in one of the sub projects are given below in Table-6.

30. The SLAO, office Dehradun was visited to find the possibility of application of LARR in the project. It was found that the state government is still acquiring land through private negotiation for development projects and that no Government Order ( GO) has been issued so far, to form the Nodel Agency for land acquisition in the state and also the ACT is not been applied in any of the project required land acquisition in the state.

3.10 TRAINING FOR SKILL UP GRADATION AND INCOME GENERATION

31. Following the guidelines given in Resettlement Framework, the NGO has identified the areas of training in which the affected households or his/her family members could appropriately participate. Although there is no livelihood loss for any of the identified affected household, NGO has conducted trainings on various areas like (i) rearing of Angora rabbit and cultivation of wool, (ii) fodder management for milch animals, (iii) cultivation and preservation of vegetable for commercial purpose, and (iv) information regarding specific centres (district/block) from where APs/participants can obtain further training and practical workshops.

3.11 MINIMIZATION OF RESETTLEMENT IMPACT

33. During the preparation of Project III, as per 5 RPs, total 54 APs were found to have been affected by encroachment of RoWs and corridors were occupied by informal settlers. In order to minimize the impacts further PWD decided to strengthen the road at the minimum construction requirement. This has greatly reduced the resettlement impacts in a majority of the road sections, which in some cases, by 100%. The resettlement impacts in 5 of the 89 roads sections, is summarized in Table- 9.

Note: *The DPR consultant recorded 11 affected householdss in Raitoli – Jasholi road subproject RP, out of which one land

account has many shareholders who were not traced at the time of DPR preparation. However, after verification of NGO an

additional 27 shareholders (titleholders) who were being affected had produced required documents of their ownership.

These households were found to be eligible for entitlements and compensated as per the entitlement matrix. Therefore, the

number of affected households in Raitoli- Jasholi road subproject has subsequently increased from 11 to 38.

3.12 R&R ASSISTANCE TO AFFECTED HOUSEHOLDS

34. Apart from compensation to affected land or structure, resettlement assistance in the form of transitional allowance, shifting assistance, special assistance to vulnerable households, training on skill up gradation and income generation has been envisaged in the Entitlement Matrix. Following the provisions shifting assistance and assistance to vulnerable households were given apart from the evaluated cost of their affected land/assets. Training in skill up gradation and income generation were conducted by NGO in all the 5 road sub projects.

3.13 OTHER SOCIAL ISSUES

35. NGO has conducted awareness programs on HIV/AIDS in 5 sub-project locations, the details of which are given in Table-10. The photographs of the program are given in Annexure-7.

surveillance to avoid child labour was done along all the 5 sub-project roads throughout the RP implementation.

� HIV/AIDS awareness program was conducted in 5 sub-project locations

37. Overall, the implementation of RP was carried out systematically by the PMU/PWD, with the facilitation of NGO- HIFEED. The entire exercise followed the ADB Social Safeguard Policies and Procedures. While, the negative impacts were minimised in some of the road sub projects by way of adjusting road width, the affected households on the other hand, were duly compensated through negotiated prices with prior consultation. The affected persons were found informed, aware and positive to the project activities. This was again revealed through the grievance redressal cell which received not a single grievance throughout the RP implementation. The information dissemination about the disbursement and overall RP implementation process was time bound and effective.

3.15 EFFECTIVENESS OF RP IMPLEMENTATION

38. The RP was implemented as per the approved Resettlement Framework of ADB, where various other assistances were also provided to vulnerable household as per the entitlement matrix. The affected households expressed their satisfaction towards restoration of living standards mainly in terms of assistance given for the partial loss of structure.

39. The training on income generation and awareness on HIV/AIDS was found useful by affected households and persons on the all road sub projects.

3.16 LESSON LEARNED

40. Generally, cost of a structure is calculated by deducting the depreciation amount. The older the structure the less will be its cost. The practice was also followed in this project by valuation committee of PWD and hence, Ist instalment of payment was made to affected households after deducting depreciation cost of the structures. The affected households had no grievances regarding this, however, keeping the ADB policy guidelines the PMU decided to pay again the depreciation amount to all affected households and this was highly appreciated by the all. According to APs, they could now utilize the second instalment in a better way.
