Reporting Mechanism for Flow of Information Page 7 of 7 with ^ z e 7 ~~~~~~~~~in associatUon wlith? t Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 L3i~IiiJ Executive Summary 1.1 Introduction India has embarked on a 10-year highway transportation improvement program as a part of the national policy to globalize its economy and to increase safety and efficiency in trade and business besides free movement of traffic. To achieve this, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) was constituted by an act of Parliament, the National Highways Authorities of India Act, 1998. The NHAI is responsible for development, maintenance and management of National Highways and for associated issues. National Highways comprise about 2% of total road length in the country and yet carry over 40% of total traffic across the length and breadth of the country. The first and foremost task mandated to National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is the implementation of National Highways Development Project (NHDP) comprising the Golden Quadrilateral and North -South and East-West corridors. The golden quadrilateral (GQ) comprises the following stretches Table 1.1: Stretches of the Golden Quadrilateral, North-South & East-West Corridors Stretch Length, Km Delhi - Kolkata 1469 Kolkata - Chennai 1751 Chennat - Mumbai 1278 Mumbai - Delhi 1454 (GQ) Total 5952 The National Highway-2 (NH-2) is a part of Golden Quadrilateral connecting Delhi and Kolkata. Four laning of NH-2 from Delhi to Kolkata is under progress. Four laning of Delhi-Agra section has been completed. Similarly, on the other end of the highway, a substantial portion between Dhanbad and Kolkata has been completed, and work is in progress for the remaining stretches. The highway stretch between Agra and Dhanbad has been undertaken for four laning with the World Bank funding. This stretch has been divided into five consultancy packages, each of approximately 200 km length. The five packages are further sub-divided into 19 construction packages, and have been covered under the three "World Bank" projects, viz., "Third National Highway Project" (TNHP), "Grand Trunk Road Improvement Project" (GTRIP), and the "Allahabad Bypass Project" (ABP). The detailed of these construction packages are given in Table 1.2 below: Table 1.2 Details of Construction Packages on NH-2 from Agra to Dhanbad Stretch Chainage Length Fund.

The base map showtng Allahabad bypass has been depicted in Figure 1.1. 1.2 Prolect Description The proposed Allahabad Bypass starts at Km 158 of NH-2 near Kokhraj in Kaushambi district and ends at Km 245 of NH-2 near Handta in Allahabad district, with an overall length of about 84.7 km. This bypass plans to avoid the traffic congesttons of the city of Allahabad. The bypass passes through three districts namely Allahabad, Kaushambi & Pratapgarh. The total number of Tehsils, blocks and villages affected from the project are presented in Table 1.4. 1-2 in association with 1~rAZAJIP 419~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/ Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 1.4 Project Area Name of Affected Bypass Number of Number of Number of District Length, Km Affected Tehsils Affected Blocks Affected Villages Allahabad 71.67 3 6 97 Kaushambi 6.36 2 2 8 Pratapgarh 6.67 1 1 5 Total 84.7 6 9 110 Source: Pnnzary Data The proposed alignment entirely passes through plain agricultural fields and through rural settings of 110 villages. Starting at KmI58, on the existing NH-2, the bypass runs along it up to Km 160 then turns eastwardly to cross-river Ganga at nearly right angle on a comparatively narrow width of the river, and rejoins NH-2 at Km 245 km near Handia. The total length of the bypass is 84.7 km. The proposed alignment also crosses three rail routes, three state Highways, five ODRS and three rivers. The proposed bypass alignment would require 781 hectares of land, out of which 687 ha belongs to private owners. In the project influence area, agriculture is the mainstay of the people. The alignment passes through plain fertile agricultural lands with alluvial soils, belonging to Ganga and Yamuna river systems. Further, about 80% of the land under alignment has extensive irrigation facilities. A variety of crops are grown in the region. This mainly includes cereals and cash crops. Major crops grown in the region includes wheat, paddy, pearl millet, sorghum, gram etc. whereas, under cash crops major crops are watermelon, muskmelon, sugarcane and cotton. The prime occupation of people in the region is agriculture. However, most of the farmers belong to small and marginal category. A large percentage of population belong to OBC category. The basic objective of preparing RAP is to assess the negative social impacts of the proposed bypass and suggest socio-economic rehabilitation measures so as to maintain/improve the quality of life of the project affected people. The RAP is prepared in a manner such that it is able to reflect and address all possible project specific socio-economic issues. The objective of Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R) is to ensure that the corridor of impact is modulated within acceptable design principles and standards to minimise the negative social impact. 1.3 World Bank Guidelines a Ran Policy Framework The population distribution and social impact scenario of the project indicate that the OP 4.12 is applicable to this project. OP 4.12 deals with involuntary resettlement, which may cause long term hardship and impoverishment and which needs mitigation measures. The O.D. 4.20 pertaining to indigenous people is not applicable and cannot be triggered in this project, as there are only 3 ST families in the project area. IA Minimizing Negative Social Impacts To determine the most suitable alternative for the bypass, various alternatives were analyzed considering technical, economical, environmental and social aspects. The seven altemative routes were initially considered for the Allahabad bypass, five of them were on the northern side, one on the southern side, and another one as an elevated road through Allahabad. All the alternatives 1-3 In associationwih w0, Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 were compared with each other based on certain parameters and finally northern alternative AN-4 was preferred based on highest weighted marks. 1.5 Land Estimate and Common Properties 1.5.1 Land Acoulsltlon The Allahabad Bypass is a new alignment requiring large-scale acquisitton of the agricultural land. An assessment has been made for the land required for the Allahabad bypass. The total land requirements of 781 ha have been worked out for different purposes of the project. Out of this, 687 ha of private land would be acquired in the three districts covering 110 villages, while 94 ha of Govt./Gram Sabha land will be transferred to NHAI. The district wise land acquisition details are given in Table 1.5. Tablel.5 District wise Land Acquisition Name of district Chainage No. of villages Land in Ha affected (Private & Govt./ G.

The details of the project affected families in terms of -Agricultural loss, Residential, Commercial and Residential cum Commercial loss village wise has been provided in Annexure 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 respectively. 1.6.1 Titleholder: Table 1.7 shows that the titleholder families constitute 98% of the total PAF of 4343. Out of total 4257 titleholder families, 97.61% are losing agriculture land, 2.23% are losing residential structures, 0.09% commercial structures and remaining 0.07% losing both residential & commercial structures. 1-4 In association with 4z7z4oyo /w Consolidation of Resetlemeni Aclion Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 The district wise distribution of the total 4257 titleholder PAFs indicate that 84.57% families belong to Allahabad, 6.86% are from Kaushambi and 8.62% from Pratapgarh districts. It is evident that majority of the titleholder families are affected in the Allahabad district.

Further, they mainly constitute the sharecroppers and interested persons. Interested Persons are those who do not have the title of the land / plot but due to the long duration / tenure of their occupancy of the plot they enjoy the rights of possession within the village community. These PAPs do not have any legal documents or registry entries to confirm their ownership of the plot. Since the ownership of the IPs towards the plot could not be established at the time of primary surveys they have been treated as non-titleholders, however if any decision regarding the IPs is taken at a later stage i.e. during implementation, the necessary changes in their entitlement shall be made by the NGOs executing the R&R activities. Sharecroppers may be defined as those persons who have formally or informally come to an agreement with private property owner to cultivate the land. The sharecroppers constitute about 2 percent of the total affected families. The sharecroppers have been identified during the primary surveys conducted by the DPR consultants through the detailed interviews with the landowners. It has been observed that only those people who belong to medium or large landholder category and those who are engaged in other commercial activities but own the agril. Plot have leased out their land to the sharecroppers. The number of medium and large titleholders is very less as only around 1.2% of the PAPs losing agril. Land can be categorized, as medium landholders while the large landholder titleholders are 0.38% of total TH losing agril. Land. During the implementation stage the NGOs shall be responsible for identifying the sharecroppers while collecting the primary census data during verification of the PAPs. The details of the non-titleholders getting affected are presented in the table 1.8 below.

The distribution of project affected vulnerable families (PAVFs) is presented in Table 1.9. It indicates that there are 914 (21.4%) vulnerable families out of the total 4343 PAFs. Further classification of PAVFs indicate that there are 52.3% SC (scheduled caste) families, 32.38% BPL (below poverty line) families, 15.21% WHH (women headed families) and remaining 0.3% ST (schedules tribe) families. It is also revealed that 95.7% of PAVFs are legal titleholders, whereas 4.3% are non-titleholders.

Overall, majority of vulnerable families i.e. 97.2% are dependent on agriculture. The district wise distribution of the total 914 vulnerable PAFs indicate that 90.1% families are from Allahabad, 4.4 % are from Kaushambi and 5.5 % from Pratapgarh districts. It is evident that majority of the vulnerable families are from Allahabad district. 1.6A Prolect disPlaced familleS Table 1.10 reveals that a total of 560 families are likely to be displaced as a result of the project implementation. They comprise of 558 titleholders and 2 non-title holders. Out of these 529 families would be displaced from Allahabad, 30 from Kaushambi and only 1 from Pratapgarh. The village wise details about the PDFs in terms of loss of agriculture, residences, commercial structures and residential cum commercial structures are provided in Annexure 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 1.8 respectively. It may be noted that there are only 2 non-titleholder PDFs in the project area, which would be affected due to loss of residential structures. 1-6 41w ~ ~~~~~~~~In association with Al! 7/w~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1 Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2d Table 1.10 Project Displaced Families -Title holders No. o No. f famlies No. of families TH with No. of No. of families loosing holdings Districts Agricultural fmle loosing cmeca residential and Total below MEH Land rlosideng comercial commercial after residences structures structures acquisition Allahabad 485 40 1 1 527 2618 Kaushambi 30 - - 30 149 Pratapgarh 1 - - 1 46 Total 516 40 1 1 558 Source: Primary Data Project displaced Persons have been identified by using the following criteria: (i) Agricultural PAPs: those PAPs who are losing more than 75% of their land and as a result of the acquisition their residual landholding becomes less than the MEH (district average landholding). (I1) Residential / Commercial structures: those PAPs who are losing more than 75% of their plot / structure and the remaining portion is economically unviable or unsafe. 1.6.5 Vulnerable PDFS: There are 171 vulnerable families (30% of the total PDFs) to be displaced by the project. Table 1.11 provides category-wise data on project displaced vulnerable families. It can be inferred that amongst the vulnerable families, the percentage of SC families is the highest i.e. 52.6%, followed by BPL 36.25% and 11.1% WHH families. It also reveals that no ST family would be displaced by the project. Further analysis of the vulnerable PDFs reveals that 92.4% of the famulies belonging to the vulnerable group are losing their agricultural land, whereas 7.6% would be losing their residential structures (including 1.2 % IPs).

Land and commercial property. The survey and analysis indicate that the Allahabad bypass would traverse through rich fertile agricultural fields. The construction of this bypass therefore will have considerable impact on the agriculture activities, as an extensive acquisition of land and property 1-7 zfl/ W In association With Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 would be required for the construction of the project as a result of which the people who are dependent on the land/property being acquired would be losing their source of income / livelihood. It was observed that out of the total of the 4343 households getting affected, 4239 are entirely dependent on agriculture, while only 7 would be losing their commercial structures. Table 1.12 indicates that out of a total of 4246 families, 4155 families would loose their agricultural land, whereas 7 families would be losing their commercial activities and 84 families would lose their share cropping activity (means of livelihood).

Therefore, after understanding the project ground conditions and the needs, an entitlement framework for the project affected families has been developed. The entitlement of the PAPs is based on the entitlement framework of the R&R Policy. The entitlement framework and the R&R Policy framework for Allahabad Bypass is provided in the annexure 5 1 -8 In association with Consolidation of Resentlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 1.8 Income Restoration The basic objective behind the income restoration activities and schemes is to restore the economic status of the affected persons enjoyed prior to the project commencement. There are two categories of the people i.e. those engaged in commercial activities and those engaged in agricultural activities including sharecroppers, who are eligible for income restoration. Table 1.14 provides details of families eligible different modes of income restoration. This includes transition allowance to agricultural titleholders, economic rehabilitation grant to all the project displaced vulnerable families engaged in agriculture (including share croppers) and plots to establish commercial structures to families loosing commercial structures, training to all title holder vulnerable families engaged in agriculture and commercial activities, besides all the sharecroppers.

The consultations organized at villages and at the district provided key inputs to finalize the design and measure to develop the mitigation plans. 1.10 Institutional Arrangement The Environmental and the Social Development Unit (ESDU) located at the NHAI headquarters will be responsible for overall monitoring and implementation of the RAP. The unit is presently headed by a GM and has one Deputy General Manager looking after Environment component besides implementation of RAP. It is now proposed to have one additional manager, independently looking after R&R work, within ESDU. The NHAI's existing capacity includes a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) at Allahabad headed by a Project Director and one manager (technical and environment). For implementation of 1-9 In association with -110 4,,J.ZA Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 RAP for the Allahabad bypass Project, an R&R cell will be created within PIU headed by the Project Director. 1.11 Implementatlon Arrangement and Schedule The detail implementation schedule has been prepared listing the chronological steps to have smooth implementation of resettlement & rehabilitation plan. The exercise of verification of PAPs and PDPs, would be done by NGO on the site during implementation of RAP. The actual affected PAPs & PDPs will be issued necessary identity cards. RAP further describes the linkages between resettlement implementation and set of institutions for civil work for each component of the project. To facilitate the implementation, NGOs would be contracted and trained. The implementation of the project is likely to be completed in three years. To evaluate the impacts of the project activities on the socio-economic condition of the PAPs an independent Evaluation Consultants would be hired by NHAI. 1.12 Budget The RAP estimate provides for resettlement, rehabilitation and mitigation costs.

It also discusses the methods used for screening and identifying areas of concern and methodology for preparation of Resettlement Action Plan (RAP). The Draft Resettlement Action Plan has been prepared by the primary consultant-Gherzi Eastern Limited. With a view to comply with appropriate national laws, local guidelines/laws and the World Bank Operational Policy (4.12) and Operational Directive (4.20), the social assessment has been carried out in close coordination with environmental assessment and engineering design team. There have been intensive consultations with various stakeholders for providing necessary inputs to the project. 2.2 The Methodological Framework The project tasks incorporated integration of engineering, environment and social components within the planning exercise. The various processes involved in carTying out the social assessment included the following: 2.2.1 AnalYsls Of Alternatives The Detailed Project Report (DPR) Consultant team comprising experts from social, environment and engineenng areas carried out a study to identity the most suitable alignment option for constructing Allahabad bypass. The seven alternative routes were initially considered for the Allahabad Bypass, five of them on the northern side and one on the southern side of Allahabad and another one incorporating an elevated road through Allahabad. The finalization of present alignment is based on the analysis of these seven alternatives. The decision on the most suitable route for the bypass was undertaken by assigning different weights to factors like capital cost, scope of future widening, land acquisition/ displacement requirements, user cost, environment impacts and technical suitability of the alignment. Based on this, alternative route AN-4, located on the northern side of Allahabad has been found technically feasible, economically viable and socially & environmentally acceptable. 2.2.2 Preliminary Social Screening Survey The basic objective of the preliminary social screening survey was to assess the possible impact of the project on people as a result of construction of the Allahabad Bypass. The survey also aimed at culling out people's perceptions and their initial reactions to the resettlement and rehabilitation policy of the NHAI. 2.2.3 Physlcal survey Vis -a-vis design modifications and Unalization of alignment & ROW The social and environmental team jointly carried out a detailed physical survey of the selected route to provide inputs to minimize displacement and reduce negative social and 2-1 In assoclation with ,W ZC Consoltdation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 environmental impacts resulting in minor design modifications and finalization of the bypass alignment. The alignrrnent/ROW was laid in the field by NHAI and the ROW was marked on the land revenue maps. 2.2.4 CollectIon of land records (Khataunil for PAP idenUficaton After the transfer of the bypass alignment/ROW on the village land revenue maps, the relevant land records were collected for purpose of identifying the plots getting affected. The plot numbers identified after the collation and analysis of the land/revenue records were verified to identify the owner of the plot through primary surveys. The information gathered through primary surveys and from the land records facilitated the notification for land acquisition. Simultaneously, a team comprising social and environmental experts, field investigators, surveyors and engineers carried out physical survey of the entire length of the bypass to measure land and structures to be affected by the bypass. The legal ownership of land, residential and commercial structures and other immovable properties were also established. 2.2.5 Data Collection To prepare the RAP, social impact assessment has been carried out on the basis of * Primary data: collected through census survey and socio economnc survey * Secondary data * Consultations with various stakeholders, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and PRA 2.2.6 Census Survey In order to establish the legal entitlement of the project affected families/people a census survey was undertaken. To carry out the census survey, an exhaustive interview schedule was prepared and tested for its smooth administration (The interview schedule is enclosed as annexure 2.1). The door-to-door interview method was used for census survey, wherein 100 percent census of families/people to be directly affected (within ROW) by the construction of bypass was carried out. All structures and plots of land getting affected were measured. Their location, size, geometry, type of construction of the structures, name(s) of the owner(s), address(es), legal/entitlement documents (if any, towards claim of the property), tenure status, possible project induced losses etc. were also recorded. Information about family details; occupation (agriculture, share cropper, business, service), occupational skills and literacy level of male and female members; economic status, income and other social information of the family to determine their vulnerability (for special considerations under the entitlement framework of the project) was collected. Information on project affected common/community property like religious structures, public property (offices, post office, police station etc.), and institutions including details of boundary walls were also recorded. 2.23 Soclo-Economic Baseline Survey A sample socio-economic survey of 25% PAPs was conducted to provide a representative database and to assist in development of indicators for monitoring and evaluation of RAP. The aim of the baseline socio-economic survey was to determrune distribution of socio- economic groups on the map, analysis of social structure and income resources of the In association with 2-2 Consolidation of Resefilement Action Plan for Ailahabad Bypass of NH-2 PAPs, inventories of the resources, which the PAP use as well as the data on the system of economic production. The data collected through the survey included * Demographic profile of the PAFs * Social characteristics (type of family, head of family, religion/caste, vulnerability etc.) * Economic conditions (occupation, income, assets, resources use pattern etc.) * Educational and Cultural aspects However, the limitation of the survey has been that despite prior information to the affected people, there were cases of absentees in field. The efforts were made to survey the sites again and only in case of non-availability of the respondents they were treated as absentee titleholders. The socio-economic survey schedule is attached as annexure 2.2. 2.2.8 Data CollecIon Irom secondary sources The secondary data/information was collected from various agencies; so as to ascertain/verify the ground realities and comprehend the soclo-economic characteristics, physical features and cultural set-up of the project area before undertaking detailed field investigations. Relevant documents were collected from Telhsil Offices, DRDA and others agencies, besides collecting various published/unpublished reports on the issues, which have also been used in the preparation of the RAP. 2.2.9 Consultations The Consultations were undertaken with various stakeholders at different levels i.e. district, block, village (focus group discussions) and the state level for information dissemination of the project to the project affected people. It was also held so as to incorporate the perceptions of the stakeholders in the planning and implementation of the RAP. A total of 13 public consultations were held at the village level / Block level, 3 at district level and one at state level to have public participation into the project. Public consultations assisted in finalizing various issues related to the location of proposed underpasses/overpasses, car/bus shelters, truck lay-byes, conservation of religious/cultural structures, possible realignments, etc. Focused Group Discussions (FGDs) were held with women, SC, ST and other vulnerable and non-vulnerable groups. This assisted in formulating a RAP, which is more responsive to the needs of the community and the affected groups. Besides this rapid assessment technique was used to assess STD/HIV (highway related diseases) vulnerability of different population groups at specific locations of the project corridor so as to suggest mitigation measures, action plan for addressing the target groups and roles and responsibilities of the stakeholding agencies in implementation of the action plan. The objective of the district level and block level consultations was to build awareness about the project amongst the people, district level administration, NGOS, and to enlist their support in preparation and implementation of the project. The state level consultations included consultations with key project officials and stakeholding organizations to discuss state level legal and policy issues besides enlisting their support.

The Allahabad Bypass project traverses through 110 villages requiring large-scale land acquisition of fertile lands as well as causing loss of commercial/non-commercial structures and assets. These would entail loss of settlements/livelihood of a substantial number of families. Although many benefits are expected from the project, the social assessment has identified potential adverse impacts on the people losing agricultural land, other assets and livelihood. Therefore, every effort has been made to reduce potential negative impacts both in terms of environmental and social aspects. Wherever feasible from technical and economic perspectives, the designs have been modified to minimlize negative social and environmental impacts. 3.2 Measures to minimize negative social Impacts As the highway passes through rich fertile agricultural belt, the project would impact a number of people owning agricultural land. Therefore, the RAP for the project would need to address the issues related to titleholders losing agricultural land and assets. The aim of integration of social components in the design phase is to mnnimize the hardships of the affected people. The RAP also aims to help the PAPs to either better or at least maintain their livelihood. Based on consultation with various stakeholders and project social assessment report, the Project engineering team developed guidelines to mininmze negative social and environmental impacts/displacement, reduce disruption of livelihoods, protection of environmentally sensitive features etc. Table 3.1 provides the measures that have been adopted for offsetting the impacts. Table 3.1 Measures to Minimize Negative Social Impacts Criteria Design Approach Minimization of Tree Loss A _ _ _l_ignment shifting___ Displacement of important Religious Structures Alignment shiftn Minimization ofroprty cquision lignment shiftting l Displacement of commercial properties Alignment shifting 3.3 Summary of measures taken and their Impacts In minimizIng negative social ImPacts In the prolect area To minimize negative social impacts, the alignment has been fixed in such a way that there is least impact on the settlements. Efforts have also been made to avoid sensitive structures, like mosque, temples, schools and places of cultural importance. To achieve this, the alignment has been shifted at various locations to save abadi area of villages, structures, temples, graveyards, mosques, orchards, community structures, ponds etc. 3-1 In assocIatlon with C. Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Secondly, for implementing project activities, initially the engineering cell had suggested a ROW of 70 m (minimum) to 120 m (maximum). However, in order to minimize land acquisition, the design has been modified to a ROW of 70 (minimum) - 90 m (maximum). As a result of the interventions to minimize negative social impacts, several categories of losses have been minimized. The same after consolidation are presented in Table 3.2 and the details are provided in Annexure 3.1. Table 3.2 Minimizing Negative Social Impacts S No Category of Loss Numbers saved due to change in alignment and reduction of ROW 1 Villages 6 2 Mosques 2 3 Temple 3 4 Schools 1 (impact on boundary wall only) 5 Grave yard 2 6 Pacca Structures 123 7 semi Pucca Structures 4 10 Brick kiln 2 Note Chainage & settlement wise details are given in the Annexure 3 1 3A Impact on Land Acuulsitlon The bypass mainly passes through rich fertile land with irrigation facilities. Normally, farmers in the area take up to three crops (Rabi, Kharif and Zaid) in a year. The reduction in ROW to 70-90 m, from the earlier design of 70-120 m, has resulted in a saving about 13% land requirements i.e. from about 904 ha to 781 ha and in the long run led to reduction in loss of livelihood of the PAFs. &AL1 Impact on settements The measures could save six settlements and various structures. The settlements, which were saved include following villages Sapatua (km 171.2), Thanlapur (km 218.7) with one helmetlDhanii(Kml 219.2), Bagai Kurd (Km 220.3), Chak Mohammed Asimn (Km 230.95), Mahrupur (km 231.8) and Rahimizpatti (Km 237.1). This was possible due to shifting of alignment after physical survey and due to reduction in ROW. 34.2 impact on religious sifuctures: Temples, mosques and other religious structures are important to uphold local religious importance as well as from historical/archaeological considerations. Upholding the religious sentiments, efforts were made to reduce impact on religious structures. Keeping in view the technical feasibility, alignment shifting could conserve two mosques at village Sihori (km 161.66) and one temple each at village Bhadshiv (km 169.5), Dighiya (km 196.7) and at village Mahrupur (km 231.6). 8A] Impact on Common Property The measures could reduce the impacts on common property to the extent possible. Major common properties considered were schools/educational institutions, police station, panchayat ghiars, post offices, water ponds, graveyards etc. Change in alignment and ROW resulted in saving one school (only boundary wall is impacted) at village Mograon 3-2 In assocIatIon with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 ev and Kushari (km 241.3); two graveyards at village Shivgar (km 195.3) and Usmanpur (km 229.1), besides 6 water ponds of different sizes. UA Impact on Private Property The measures to reduce negative social impacts resulted in saving of 123 pacca structures, four semi-pacca structures and a large number of kaccha structures/huts etc., thus reducing both displacement and financial implications. Details are given in Annexure 3.1. 3.5 Impact ol Commercial Establishments The shifting of alignment resulted in saving one brick kiln at village Singraur-I (km 175.1), thereby ensuring continuity of commercial activities and labor deployment. 3.5 Minimizing Hardships by providing accessibillt As per the directives of MORT&H, the bypass is designed as fully access controlled toll road with parallel service roads and fencing. The project design has considered the provisions of overpasses and underpasses at strategic locations, with particular attention to rural areas so that farm families have easy and safe accessibility to their fields. Also, the design has the- provisions for bus and truck stops, which will reduce roadside congestions and reduce the likelihood of accidents. Traffic management features such as signs, markings, cross walk, inter-section layout, and, control and provisions for different types of road users have been included in the road improvement plans. Service roads on both sides of the bypass would segregate local traffic and would link them to the nearest underpass/overpass for better accessibility to local markets. The service roads together with underpass and overpass will help to remove whatever disturbance/severance is caused in vehicular mode of traffic movement in the existing local networks due to the construction of the bypass. The basis for providing the service roads/underpass/overpass and selection of the locations of those has been to see that mobility of local people at large is not jeopardized with the construction of the bypass. Adequate provisions have been made for underpasses, overpasses and culverts etc in the project area for ensuring safe accessibility and movement of the local people to/through the bypass with minimum disturbance, the details of which have been attached in Annexure 3.3. An overview of the underpasses reveal that there are two types of under passes a) Pedestrians crossing and b) Vehicular cum pedestrian crossings. There area total 39 under passes, out of which 7 are pedestrians crossings and 32 are vehicular cum pedestrian crossings. The details of vehicular cum pedestrian underpasses have been attached in Annexure 3.2. There are 8 overpasses in the project area. 3-3 In association with Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 4 Socio-Economic Profile of the Project Area 4.1 Background The socio-economic profile of the project area provides a comprehension of the spatio- temporal trends of the demographic features, socio-cultural characteristics, politico- administrative divisions and economic way of life of the project-affected families. In order to determine the project impacts on the PAFs, this section analyses and presents a comparative picture of the field level data with that of secondary information related to the project vis-a-vis the ground truths. 4.2 Regional Setting of the Project Area The districts of Pratapgarh, Allahabad and Kausambi are strategically located districts in the state of Uttar Pradesh and are adjoined by the districts of Mirzapur, Gyanpur, Jaunpur and Sultanpur on the south-eastern, east and north eastern side. The southern side of the project area is bounded by the state of Madhya Pradesh. Districts of Chitrakoot, Banda, Fatehpur and Rae Bareli on the south-western, west and north-western sides. The major roads intersecting the proposed Allahabad Bypass are the state highways SH-7, SH-9 and SH-38. There are three railway lines intersecting the bypass. The three rivers namely Ganga, Doab and Mansita also intersect the bypass at three locations. 43 Soclo- Economic Profile of the prolect area For effective planning and implementation of resettlement and rehabilitation activities in the project area, it is imperative to analyze and understand the socio-economnc profile of the area and livelihood pattern of the project affected families. Hence in present context, the socto-economic analysis of the project area helped in preparing a comprehensive Resettlement Action Plan for the proposed bypass. 4.3.1 Demographic Profile The demographic trend in the project area indicates that Allahabad has had a considerable population growth of 30.7 percent during last decade (1991-2001), which is much higher than the state's decadal growth rate. This in turn has caused a phenomenal rise in population density in Allahabad i.e. witnessing an increase from 712 persons per sq km in 1991 to 911 persons in 2001. This growth may be well attributed to the increased economic activity and associated urbanization in the district. The decadal growth for Kaushambi and Pratapgarh has observed a much lower growth rate. The number of male PAPs above 18 years of age is 10,477 and the number of female PAPs above 18 years of age is 7,743. Percentage of male PAPs above 18 years of age is 36.2% and female PAPs is 26.7%. Viewing the rural-urban dichotomy, Pratapgarh district indicates 94.7% rural population followed by 92% in Kausambi whereas Allahabad accounts for 75.4 percent share. From this, it can be inferred that Allahabad is comparatively more urbanized with a larger percentage of population living in urban areas. Further, the male to female ratio reveals 4-1 ^fl/W In association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 that Pratapgarh has maximum females per thousand males (983), which was higher than other two districts. 4.3.2 Economic Prrofle As per the Census of India, the total WFPR in all the three districts, Allahabad accounts for 37.28 percent followed by Pratapgarh (24.68 percent), while Kausambi has the least work force participation rate. Hence it can be seen that Allahabad is comparatively the most advanced district in terms of workforce followed by Pratapgarh.(Census of India, 2001) The primary data on workforce participation rate (WFPR) indicate that PAPs in Allahabad has a WFPR of 38.6 percent followed by Pratapgarh (28.1 percent) and Kausambi (21.6 percent).

The literacy patterns in 2001 for the three districts can be divided into rural and urban, which may be further subdivided into males, females and overall literacy pattern. However the urban literacy pattern reveals that Allahabad district accounts for highest literacy rate of 80.7 percent (86.20 % for males and 73.87 % for females). The least literacy level was in Kausambi coupled with low rate of social development in the district. It can be viewed that Pratapgarh district accounts for highest overall rural literacy pattern of 57.7 % and 74.0% for males and 41.3% for females. This is closely followed by Allahabad district with 56.5% (overall) literacy arte and 73.6% for males and 37.3% for females.

The analysis of data of Gol Census indicates that Hindu religion is pre-dominant in all three districts. As per census their percentages are 86.7 percent, 86.5 percent and 83.1% in Allahabad, Pratapgarh and Kaushambi districts respectively. The respective population 4-2 ~~~fl/ W ~~~~~~~~in association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for AJlahabad Bypass of NH-2 of Muslinis in the three districts was 12.9, 13.2 and 14.6%. The balance belonged to other religions i.e. Sikhs and Chlristiatis The field level analysis also exhibits similar trends with Kaushambi contributing to 17.4% Muslimns i.e maximum with respect to other districts.. The vulnerable category including families below poverty line (BPL), women headed families (WHH), scheduled castes (SC), schedules tribes (ST) and families of other backward classes (OBC) indicates that OBC accounts for 58% of the depressed class population, followed by SC with 15.4 percent population and rest belonging to ST category. The category wise analysis of vulnerable project affected families' reveal that schedule caste accounts for highest percentage of 52.3 percent in the project area. In detail, Pratapgarh has about 62.0 % SC families, followed 52.3 percent in Allahabad and 42.5% in Pratapgarh. The Below Poverty Line PAFs is maximum in Kausambi district, accounting for 42.5% percent of the total vulnerable sections in the district. The percentage of schedule tribes is 0.4% in Allahabad, whereas there are no scheduled tribes in other two districts. However, OBC and SC have been grouped into one category in RAP. 4.3.3.2 OvervIew of family types In the prolect Area: The family types have been classified as Joint, Nuclear, and Extended typology in the project area. Out of the total family units in the project area, approximately 85 percent of the PAFs reside in Allahabad district followed by Pratapgarh and Kausambi with 8.2 percent and 6.8 percent respectively. Analysis of primary data indicates that there are 44.5% joint family units amongst the PAFs in the project area, followed by nuclear fanmilies amounting to 40.5 percent. The district of Allahabad indicates a larger percentage (47.3%) under joint family category followed by Kaushambi & Pratapgarh with 33.4% & 25.6% respectively..

However, Allahabad district exhibits a comparatively diverse pattern with respect to occupation. Table 4.4 Occupational pattern of the project affected families in the project area Districts Number of PAFs in Different Occupations Agricul- Sh C Business HH Labor Govt Private Total ture Industry (non- Service service agriculture) Allahabad 3506 69 7 5 3 39 40 3669 Kausambi 289 7 2 - 1 299 Pratapgarh 360 8 - 2 1 3 1 375 Souse Pnm.ry D.e.* Sh C sharecropper # HH Household 4-3 In assoclatlon with C Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 From the above Table, it is clear that most of the project affected families are engaged in agriculture in all the dtstricts. 4.3.3.3 Share Croppers: The share-croppers are those people, who are working as the cultivators cum agricultural laborers, on the fields of landowners, on the basis of produce/profit sharing. 4.3.3.4 People becoming landless: The PAPs, who are losing more than 75% of their land and if the residual land is becoming economically unviable for agricultural production i.e. their residual holding becomes less than the district average, have been considered as people becoming landless (PBL) in the project. The number of the people becoming landless is quite significant in Allahabad district (485) and they account for about 94% of the total PBL (516). The reason for people becoming landless is that most of the farmers particularly in Allahabad district belong to marginal farmer category and have a land holding of 0.25 - 0.5 ha (1-2 bigha). Therefore, acquisition of even a small area would make the land econormcally unviable and thus the farmers would be considered as PBL (people becoming landless).

PAPs. The average landholding of the PAPs, which is another indicator of the socio- economic profile of the PAPs, indicates that the average landholding of the PAPs is below the average district landholding in Allahabad & Kaushambi (0.75 Ha). While in Pratapgarh the average landholding of the PAPs is the highest and is greater than the district average landholding (0.5 Ha) 4.4 Role of Allahabad Development Authoritg on Regional Development The discussions with the Allahabad Development Authority revealed that the proposed Allahabad bypass did not fall under the purview of the Master Plan-2001, as the geographical limit of the Allahabad city extends up only to 10kms radius, whereas the bypass falls outside 30 kms radius of the city. 4-4 In association with Consolidation of Reseflement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 The Allahabad Development Authority also indicated that if the proposed corridor came within the gambit of urban area, its incorporation within the Proposed Master Plan 2001- 2021 would become integral, but as of now no such plans have been drawn. 4-5 In association with 44- Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Resettlement and Rehabilitation 5 | Policies & Legal Framework 5.1 IntroducUon The Resettlement Action Plan for Allhabad bypass has been prepared on the similar guidelines of TNHP & GTRIP R&R policy of National Highways Authortty of India. The Allhabad bypass has been proposed on a new alignment traversing through predominantly agricultural area. It will, therefore have different impact scenario in comparison to TNHP & GTRIP Packages. Keeping this in view, necessary provisions have been made in RAP and the entitlement framework. The construction of Allahabad bypass would require substantial land acquisition. In this scenario large number of families are going to be affected in terms of loosing their fertile agriculture land. It is evident from the extent of land acquisition that majority of the families affected from the project would fall under the Agriculture loss. The efforts have been made to provide for the compensation and assistance in the form of training and ERG for the economic rehabilitation of the PAPs. 5.2 ENTITLEMENT FRAMEOWRK 5.2.1 EnUUement Categories: In the present project there are five categories of losses i.e. Loss of Agriculture Land, Loss of residential & commercial land & structures, loss of standing crops & trees, loss of community properties and loss of livelihood for mainly the sharecroppers. Out of these, the greatest loss to be suffered by the PAPs is loss of agriculture land in all the three districts. The entitlement framework for the PAPs has, therefore, been developed constjdering these facts. The RAP delivers a comprehensive package of compensation and assistance to entitled persons, families, and groups suffering losses as a result of the project. The RAP provides all the details about the project-affected and, project-displaced people, including the vulnerable categories. In addition to that entitlements for all the families / individuals eligible for compensation, assistance and training have been worked out to restore their economic conditions. The salient features of the RAP include: * All the land acquisition would be done under NH Act, which provides compensation for properties to be acquired and support to be extended for meeting the replacement value of property. The persons affected by the project thal do not own land but have economic interest or loose their livelihoods shall be assisted as per the entitlement framework. * Loss of land, including assets house or work place will be compensated. * Lost livelihood or income opportunities will be restored. * Collective impacts on groups, such as loss of community assets, common property resources and others will be restored. * All people above the age of 18 years have been defined as a separate family, and will be eligible for support if affected by the project. . The vulnerable group will comprise of those who are below poverty line of the concerned State. It also covers the disadvantaged persons belonging to SC/ST disabled, handicapped, orphans, women headed household and destitute. 5-1 In associatlon with 0 Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 All loses will be compensated and assistance will be provided at replacement value, irrespective of their legal standing in the project area. Assistance will be extended to the vulnerable families to enhance their earnings as well new economic opportunities 5.2.2 Cut of Date: Cut-off date for titleholders will be the date of issue of the notice u/s 3A of NH Act. In case of non-titleholders it will be the date of start of the census survey, which is 15'h January 2002. 5.2.3 Final Entitlement Matr: In the present matrix the compensation and assistance have been provided to cover compensation for lost assets and restore or enhance the livelihood of all categories of project-affected person.

The public consultation is an important tool to assess the perception of people towards the project. It helps significantly in understanding the priorities of the project-affected persons; hence it plays an important role in increasing the public participation. Experience indicates that involuntary resettlement generally gives rise to severe problems for the affected population. These problems may be reduced if, as a part of RAP implementation, people are properly informed and consulted about the project, about their situation and preferences, and are allowed to make meaningful choices. This serves to reduce the insecurity and opposition to the project which otherwise are likely to occur. 6.2 The Consultation process adopted In the project area The public consultations in the project area were held at various levels: Village level, Block level, District level and State level. Discussions were also held with the Allahabad Development Authority, for comprehending their vision regarding implications of corridor development within the overall framework of regional development of the project area. (as mentioned in Chapter 4) The consultation programme during project preparation was designed with the view to disseminate project information and to incorporate local people and PAPs' opinion in Resettlement Action Plan. These consultations also revealed that majority of the project- affected people were losing agricultural land. The present chapter provides detailed information regarding the consultation process. The different techniques of consultation with stakeholders were used during project preparation, namely in-depth interviews, public meetings', Focus Group Discussions etc. The information related to main project features and the entitlement framework would be translated in the local language of the region and would be made available to the PAPs at the time of initiation of the R&R activities by the NGOs (Through display at gram panchayat and other common or meeting point of villagers and through public consultations) and local NGOs at PIU office. The consultations have been carTied out with different stakeholders with special emphasis on the vulnerable groups. The key informants during the project preparation phase included both individuals and groups namely: * Head of households and members of households affected by the project * Clusters of PAPs * Village Panchayats; * Local voluntary organisations, and CBOs / NGOs; Government agencies and departments; Other project stakeholders with special focus on women and PAPs belonging to the 1 Regarding the alignment of the bypass, loss of agricultural land & commercial & residential properties, compensation payment and mode of payment, loss of livelihood and efforts required for restoration of livelihood The proceedings of the public consultation meetings have been video-clipped as a documentation of the views of the different stakeholders conducted at various stretches of the selected bypass alignment 6-1 In assoclatlon with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 vulnerable groups.

The details of the overpasses and underpasses are provided in annexure 6.1. * The sustenance of the brick kilns (2 nos) would be at stake and will also affect the livelihoods of a large number of men and women who are migrants from the adjacent districts. 6.4 District -Level Consultations District level consultations were aiTanged to solicit public and stakeholders' inputs and were also intended to establish the district committees to support RAP implementation. Public meetings and workshops are some of the most effective tools of people's participation, facilitating in bringing administrative units, implementation units and co- ordination between people (PAPs) and local NGOs operating in the area so as to discuss the matters in congenial atmosphere and encourage the participatory decision - making process. The participants included the District Magistrate, district level officials from the line departments, representatives of the PAPs and NHAI officials. These consultation sessions were intended to be complementary to the local and village level consultations conducted along the project corridor. District level consultations were scheduled to coincide with the onset of the census of the PAPs and the baseline socio-economic surveys. Project related literature in Hindi and English were prepared and distributed among all participants during the meetings. The dates, venues and timings of the meetings were decided in consultation with NHAI and subsequently published in local newspapers inviting PAPs to participate. Loudspeakers were used a day before to remind the people of the date and venue of the meeting. Written invitations were also extended to all the district magistrates, and other administrative officers (the block development officers, the community officers, Lekhpals etc.) of the concerned districts to participate in the consultation programmes. Active NGOs of the area, general public, specifically senior and experienced residents, press and some of the photographers were also informed and invited. The entire proceedings of the meetings was video-recorded. 6.411 Objectives and Contents The objectives of the district level consultations were, * To disseminate information about the project among the public, peoples' representatives local government leaders and district officials in areas affected; * To identify social and environmental sensitivities and other concerns in the affected districts, and to incorporate these into the project design and planning; * To review the potential impacts of the project, identified in social and environmental assessment and the measures taken to avoid, reduce or mitigate adverse impacts, to minimize displacement, and to incorporate rutigative provisions undertaken in the Project's Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and Resettlement Action Plan (RAP); * To explain the principles and procedures proposed for land acquisition, resettlement and relocation; to project affected persons/households/groups, who may lose land or assets or suffer other losses during or as consequence of the project; 6-6 47fl/ W ~ In association with ,4 Z08 Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 * To increase cooperation among local governments and district officials in planning and implementation of the project - and subsequent village and local level consultations during the project implementation. * To conduct door-to-door surveys, asset - verification, photography and videography of public consultation meetings, village level consultations & other activities and ensure that local inputs are considered in the project preparation.

findings of the consultation were as follows + The participants were aware of the project and expressed concern regarding road safety, large-scale impact on agricultural land and loss of livelihood. * and timely disbursement of the same. * Provision of proper drainage system to prevent water-logging along the bypass alignment + Provision of irrigation facilities to PAPs whose land would get fragmented or would lose irrigation units as a result of land acquisition. * Participants were also concerned about the loss of religious properties and community assets. + It was suggested that a higher degree of transparency is required to be maintained regarding the land acquisition procedure and the rate of compensation. + Provision of public conveniences like toilets, rest shelters etc and underpasses / overpasses at major intersections with village roads, MDRs, state roads and service roads along the entire stretch for proper accessibility was also proposed. * The concept of access control highway was accepted by the people as a safety measure against accidents among the road users and people living in the adjoining villages. * Majority of the PAPs who were losing land preferred to continue with their present occupation However, in case of non-availability of agricultural land the PAPs,, were interested in establishing small business enterprises as an alternative source of livelihood and sought the support of NHAI through provision of market complexes close to the bypass or along the service road. * The participants expressed that the assistance and compensation mechanism should lay special emphasis on the vulnerable group of people. 6.5 State - Level Consultation State level consultation workshop was held in January & February 2002 to promote awareness and understanding about the proposed project. The participants included local people, social and environmental experts from academic organisations, NGOs, NHAI, representatives of the District Administration (Allahabad, Kausambi, and Pratapgarh), Land and Land Revenue Departments, Forest Department and others. The stakeholders' consultative workshop focused on the following issues:- Project description: - Need for the Allahabad Bypass, analysis of various alternative routes for the Bypass, criterion for selection of the present alignment, decision of MORTH for an access controlled bypass, benefits of the project. * Social and environmental assessment processes Vis-A-Vis- GOI and the World Bank requirements of the project. The extent / nature of negative social and environmental impact and the need for rehabilitation and resettlement in the project. * Dissemination of NHAI's R&R framework formulated for the bypass project prescribing various R&R options to facilitate in improving, or, at a mnnimum, regaining the initial standard of living of the people affected by the project. 6-9 In association with NW Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 .

Reseltlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 6.5.1 Malor Observations and findings of state level consultations The key issues of the workshop are summarized below: * The constructton of the bypass will have positive and negative, social and environmental impacts. The positive Impacts being better transport and communication facilities, growth tn economic activittes, marketing of agricultural products, etc. and the negative Impacts will include large-scale land acquisition disrupting livelihoods of affected people. * The pros and cons of an access-controlled bypass need to be disseminated to the people. Although access control would reduce recurrent accidents, the road design must have adequate provisions to ensure safe and free movement of village bound slow moving traffic through provisions of servtce roads, underpasses / over passes. * A major emphasis of the workshop was that the compensation should be patd at current market prices although land for land would be the best option. There is a need for clarification of the standards of compensation. Next, there is a need to speed up the land acquisitton and compensation payment process. The location and type of land for relocation is important and the land for resettlement should not be allotted in fragments. * Physical relocation and resettlement should be minimized. * Acquisition of land and other immovable properties and resettlement should be on the basis of "relocate first and then remove" with a simplified procedure and timely implementation of the same. * Notification about the cut-off date by the government through the media and press will prevent further land transactions. * Special care should be taken in removing or shifting the sacred trees, temples and other community assets * Loss of livelihood should be minimum and the loss to be compensated in terms of development based employment generation and occupational subsistence in social - environmental context. * Scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, women headed households and other vulnerable social groups affected by the project need to be identified. They require special consideration for resettlement / rehabilitation on priority basis. * Emissions from road works, higher traffic volume, etc., will deteoriate air quality leading to various health hazards and damage to the vegetation. Protection of local flora and fauna is needed on priority basis. * Natural landscape and land use patterns need to be maintained and improved upon by controlling soil erosion, etc. * Hand pumps, tanks, wells and other traditional sources of surface water may get affected due to the project; therefore project should design mitigation plan for the same. * Accidents need to be controlled through various safety measures. * Close coordination between NHAI, NGOs and other line departments during RAP implementation should be ensured * Preference to be given to locally based NGOs for RAP implementation. * People's participation to be ensured during implementation and monitoring and evaluation stage of the project. These recommendations of the state / district or local / village level consultations have been carefully considered in the design. While finalizing the bypass alignment, the views of the PAPs, and outcomes of the district and state level consultations have been considered. 6-11 In association wIth -154040 1 ΌAre -, - Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 6.5 Consultation with Women Si ISSUE Place of Raised By Date of SUGGESTIONS/ MITIGATION MEASURES No ISEConsultation RieByConsultations DEMAND Alignment Kokhraj,Maskdumpo Kevladevi, Mehrani, 7/1/02, 9/01/02, * Cash compensation or,Sakhabarpur,Dhi FaridaBegum, Johra Bibi, 11/01/02, for land and the a) Loss of livelihood in mi,Munawarpur,Moh KismeeDevi, Prabhabati, 17/01/02, crops * Adequate provision has terms of agncultural land. iddinpur,Atrampur,A Smt Fatima, Smt 20/01/02 been incorporated in the b) Structures gening dampur,Madhopur,S RamKali, Gyatd Prasad, 23/01/02. * New structures for RAP affected hyampur,Sahapur,B Smt Satiya, those which are * Relocation should be ari,Alipur,Tulsipur Smt VimlaDevi and geting affected made as per EPs choice c) If 70°h of Land acquired etc others * Acquire the remaining * Acquisdion of entire land then what to do wnh Land if the residual has been proposed d the remaining Land plot is less than MEH remaining land is not economically viable 2 Residential structures Kokhral, Dhimr, KevlaDevi, Kela Devi, 12/01/02,15/01/0 * They wanted to be * Arrangement should be made geting affected MalakBalau, Mehrani, KismeeDevi, 2,18/01/02, relocated the same to relocate them as per EPs Atrampur, Malaka, Smt Maheswarn, Smt 24/01/02 village In addition choice Bhopatpur, Ram Kali, Smt Karma they demanded * R&R Implementing agencies Usmanpur, Devi, Smt Sudhra Devi basic amenaies like (i e NGOs and M&E Karawhan, Veski and others drinking water, consultants) will design sanitation facilities & houses wnh proper bathing facilities etc consultation with women and * They also demanded especially with Women that their involvement Headed Households in the design and layout planning of the houses proposed in the resetlement snes with proper basic amenities must be ensured 3.

After finalization of the access control bypass option detailed field surveys were conducted with due consideration on environmental and social issues. During the FGDs with local people it was envtsaged that people were very much worried about their access through the cross roads, to reach the other side of the field, business opportunities etc. For the selection of underpass, overpass and pedestrian crossings, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were conducted at 17 village locations to provide passage to the villagers through the to the other side of the bypass. During the discussions the issues raised by the villagers for their crossing point are as follows:- 1. In most of the villages villagers preferred crossing along the existing road (i.e. VRs, MDRs, ODRs2 etc.). They don't want to change the alignment of the existing road. 2. Most of the villagers demanded easy crossing for the cattle tractors and nmnitrucks for the transportation of agricultural product to the nearby markets. 3. In the villages Bhadshiv, Akhairajpur, Patna-Uparhar, Mohiddinpur, Malakpur, Adampur, Kaurihar, Alipur & Rajapur Maksudan people preferred underpasses. Locations were finalized in consultation with the villagers & NHAI PIU. 4. In Dhimi, Jehanabad, Singraur, Pure Nakku & Saraifateh overpasses were finalized in consultation with NHAI considering the embankment height of the bypass and that was acceptable to the villagers. 5. In Sakhada Kachar a pedestrian crossing has been provided as desired by the villagers to reduce the distance between the existing NH-2 & the village. 6. Effort has been made to provide underpass & overpass as per the convenience of the villagers & side by side engineering aspects have also been take care off. Combining both the factors engineering team has selected the underpass & overpass point. After selection of the same no. of people getting benefited has also been assessed. 6.7 Plans For Continued Participation The following sets of activities are required for proper implementation of the RAP. These will help the process of resettlement and rehabilitation to be effective, and will ensure time-bound achievements. Information Dlsclosure The RAP will be disclosed at several locations, for the benefit of the interested community and the stakeholders. The following are the components of disclosure of project information. * The NGOs involved in implementation of the RAP will organize public meetings and will appraise the communities about the progress in the implementation of R & R works. 2 VR=Village Roads, MDR=Major District Roads, ODR= Other District Roads 6-14 In assoclallen with C'o. Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 * There will be Grievance Redressal Committees (GRCs) for each district. The PAPs will be associated with such committees (each of the committees will include representative of the PAPs). * The resettlement sites, and other amenities and facilities to be made available to the PAPs will be decided in consultation with the communities. . The NGOs will organize public meetings to inform the community about the compensation and assistance to be paid. Regular update of the progress of resettlement component of the project will be placed for public display at the PIU office. * All monitoring and evaluation reports of the R & R components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the RAP report suggested above. Communliv Parclipaicon To implement the RAP in a proper way, it is essential to provide scope of involving communities and effected persons in the process. Stakeholders participation in the various stages of project implementation and early operation (or the defect liability period) will be integrated in the project.

The issues regarding underpasses, overpasses, loss of agricultural areas, trees and community structures and so on, have been discussed with the various sections of the society, and their suggestions were kept in mind while preparing the design part of the proposed bypass. 6-16 In association with 10, 441- Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 I Land Acuuisition & Assets 7.1 Background Land acquisition is an indispensable component of development projects. The construction of Allahabad bypass would also require lot of land for the project execution. For the project maximum land is to be acquired for construction of ROW. While assessing the suitability of alternatives, seven alternative routes were initially considered for Allahabad bypass, 5 of them on the northern side, one on the southern side and one on an elevated roadway through Allahabad city. All these alternatives for alignment were analyzed and alternative route AN- 4 on northern side was found technically feasible and economically viable. The total length of the bypass is 84.7 km. The bypass starts from Km. 158 of NH-2 at (Kokhraj) runs 2 km along existing alignment and then turns towards north side and passes through the land of 110 villages falling in Kaushambi, Pratapgarh and Allahabad districts, and finally rejoins the NH-2 at Km 245 just before Handia town. The proposed alignment also crosses three rail routes, three state Highways, five other district roads (ODRS) and three rivers. The alignment passes through fertile agricultural land with extensive irrigation facilities. The main occupation of the people in the project area is agriculture. Review of primary data and interactions with the villagers have revealed that most of the farmers have small holdings and the average land holding along the alignment area is less then 0.5 ha During site visits it was observed that in some stretches farmers are very poor, have no assured irrigation facilities and are dependent upon rainfall for maturity of their crops. The cropping pattern is typical of an under developed economy and the farmers are mainly growing food crops for their own consumption. Around 2540 families are below MEH. Most of the farmers have small holdings hardly sufficient for self sustenance. The construction of the Allahabad bypass envisages large-scale land acquisition affecting numerous small and medium farming families. These families may not become landless but will loose substantial part of their land thus making the balance land unviable for subsistence. Some of the project affected landowners with single plot will be loosing their only source of livelihood 7.2 Land Acuulsltlon A 70 m wide ROW, in general, is proposed. Since the bypass is going to be access controlled, grade separation structures have to be introduced at every railway crossing, SH, ODR and paved village roads. This would require higher profile of the bypass at such locations necessitating additional landtake of 20m to make the ROW 90m at such locations. Based on land required for ROW and other specific enroute requirements, the total requirement of land along the bypass works out to 781 ha (Refer Annexure 7). This covers all the three districts and one hundred and ten villages along the bypass alignment. However, after allowing deduction for transfer of Gram Sabha land/Govt. land, net private land acquisition will be about 687 ha District wise land acquirement details have been given in table 7.1. The table indicates that impact on Allahabad is maximum and Pratapgarh is least impacted district. 7-1 419 In association with CIO Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 7.1 District wise Land Acquisition Name of district Chainage No. of Land in Ha villages (Private & GovtJ affected G.

The impact of land acquisition would lead to loss of livelihood, fertile agriculture land, farm produces, structures, institutional buildings, community infrastructures and assets. Although efforts have been made to reduce the losses by shifting the road alignment so as to reduce negative impacts along entire stretch, yet substantial number of farmers is still affected. Based on field visits and interactions with PAPs, observations of the Review Consultants in this regard are summed up as under: * The Review Consultants observed that the landholding of the project-affected families is very small. Most of them own about 0.25-0.5 ha of fertile irrigated land. This implies that the most of the PAPs are marginal landholders. If a part of their land is acquired, the residual land would be virtually unviable for cultivation. * Most of the PAPs interviewed expressed that if their land is acquired they must be provided an alternative permanent source of income either through employment in government offices / schemes or assisted in starting a commercial activity. * The farmers are concerned about the sources of irrigation getting affected. The relocation of the irrigation structures like tube wells and pumps would require specialized hydrological studies to identify the location and to analyze the depth of ground water table. 1A Severity of Impact due to Land Acquisition Depending upon the individual land holdings prior to and after land acquisition sevelity of impact due to land acquisition on 4155 TH agriculture families is tabulated below. Accordingly entitlement framework for assistance has also been so designed to provide more to those loosing more i.e. provision of transitional allowance has been made for 9 months for displaced category of EPS, 3 months for EPS whose residual land is viable after acquisition and also 9 months for those EPS whose residual land is becoming unviable after acquisition. Also compensation and assistance for land acquisition are directly proportional to land area being acquired. 7-2 41V7 In association with Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 7.2 Severity of impact due to land acquisition S.No. District No of THs No of THs No of THs No of THs Absentee Total loosing 75 - loosing land loosing land loosing land THs 100% land between 50- between 25- less than 25 75% 50YO0 % I Allahabad 485 791 1042 535 653 3506 2 Kaushambi 30 32 37 73 117 289 3.

Land will be affected permanently and temporarily by the project. * Permanent acquisition will be under NH Act, 1956 through a 'competent authority' appointed under this act. * Temporary land acquisition will be to facilitate civil work by providing diversion ioutes for traffic and for earthwork from borrow areas, dumping sites,for earth spoils, and haulage roads in consultation with owners of land / community. a) Permanent land acquisition mainly involves following steps (i) Preparation of land acquisition plans based on land surveys, and on updated official records and ground facts. The land records shall be updated relating to title / classification / current land use as on the cut off date. (ii) Submission of land acquisition plans to competent authority (C.A.)/L.A.O. (Land Acquisition Officer). (iii) Notification in the official Gazette as per section 3A. (iv) Publication of notification under Section 3 A in two newspapers one of which should be in vernacular language. (v) Preliminary surveys on site to find out the exact owners/patrons of land to be acquired. (vi) Hearing objections received within 21 days from the date of publication of notification. (vii) Declaration through Gazette notification under section 3D of NH Act. (viii) Publication of declaration under section 3D in two papers one of which shall be in vernacular language. (ix) Issuing that notices to the legally entitled holders and request to subrmt their claim for compensation. (i) Award / Declaration of compensation by Competent Authority. (ii) Possession of land after payment of compensation. b) Temporary land acquisition mainly involves: Borrow Areas Detail investigations need to be carried out by the contractor to identify the borrow areas. Local farmers lease their agricultural lands for excavation of earth generally up to 1.5 m depth mainly for short-term economic gains. Compensation for the landowners is to be finalized for both borrowing and construction of haul roads. However, this will have impact on the agricultural productivity of the area and livelihood of the people. About 210 Ha of borrow areas is proposed to be acquired temporarily by the contractors which will have to be reclaimed as per the EMP. The land under borrow area is not added in the total land to be acquired or transferred The following safeguards should be provided to watch the interests of the landowners being affected by temporary land acquisition for borrow area by the contractor/ agency. 7-3 In association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for , Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 (i) Contractor to submit details to PIU about the person and area to be leased by the contractor. (ni) The contract document signed between the PIU and the contractor will include the terms of payment and return of land to the owner. (iii) Complete payment will be made to the contractor after the PIU ts satisfied that the terms and conditions of the contract document have been met. 7.6 Appointmentof CompetentAuthorlhv Gazette notification has to be issued by the Govt. for appointment of Competent Authority (CA) for exercise of powers under Nattonal Highway Act, 1956 along with SCHEDULE. "Competent Authority" means any person or authority authorized by the Central Govt. by notification in the official Gazette to perform the functions of the Competent Authority for such area as may be specified in the notifications. The Central Govt. in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (a) of section 3 of NH Act 1956. (a) Vtde notification dated 24'h Nov, 2001 has authorized the ADM (Administration), Collectorate, Allahabad as the competent authority to acquire land from Kokhraj Km 158 to Handia Km 245 on the National Highway No. 2 (Kanpur Varanasi section for Allahabad Bypass) in the state of Uttar Pradesh for 90 villages of Allahabad district. (b) Vide notification dated 12t July 2002 has authorized ADM (Administration) Allahabad for 11 villages of Allahabad district. (c) Vide notification dated 5"' March 2002 has authorized Deputy Collector / Special Land Acquisition officer, Collectorate - Kaushambi for 8 villages of Kaushambi district. (d) Vide notification date 29h Jan, 2002 has authorized Additional Deputy Collector, Collectorate, Pratapgarh / Special Land Acquisition officer, Collectorate, Pratapgarh for 5 villages of Pratapgarh. 7.1 Detalls of Land Acquisition Procedure (Reouirementsl For land to be acquired under different packages under the National Highway Act the following procedure needs to be followed. (1) Section 3A Issue of notification under Section 3 A in official Gazette, declaring Govt. intention to acquire such land. Every notification under sub section (1) shall give a brief description of the land to be acquired. This notification shall also be published in two local newspapers, one of which will be in vernacular language. Gazette notification under section 3A was published in daily Hindi newspapers Aaj, Amar Ujjala and Dainik Jagran as these are widely read in this Hindi belt. (2) Section 3B After issuing of notification under sub section (1) of section 3A, it shall be lawful for any person authorized by Central Govt. in this behalf to enter in the affected area for survey and detail investigations to determine exact location of land and ascertain its suitability. The 7-4 In association with Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for a Allahabad Bypass of NH2 2) substance of the notification is given as public notice at a convenient place in the locality in which land is to be acquired. (3) Section 3C Any person interested in the land may within 21 days from the date of publication of the notification under sub-section (1) of Section 3A object to the use of land for the purpose mentioned in the sub section. Every objection under sub section (1) shall be made to the competent authority (C-A) in writing and shall set out grounds thereof and the CA shall give the objector an opportunity of being heard either in person or by a legal practitioner, and may, after hearing all such objections and after making such further inquiry if any, as the CA thinks necessary by order, either allow or disallow the objection. (4) Section 3D Where no objections under sub section (1) of Section 3-A has been made to the competent authority (CA) within the period specified therein or where the CA has disallowed the objections under sub section (2) of that Section, the CA shall as soon as may be, submit a report accordingly to the Central Govt. and on receipt of such report, the Central Govt. shall declare by notification in official Gazette that the land should be acquired for purpose or purposes mentioned in sub-section (1) of Section 3-A. Wide publicity will be given through publication of gazette notification under section 3D in local news papers-Aaj, Amar Ujjala, Dainik Jagran. Title holder can file objections within 21 days from the date of notification under 3-D regarding any mistakes about name/ownership, Plot No., and area etc. (5) Section 3E Power to take possession Where any land has vested in the central govemment under sub-section (2) of section 3-D, and the amount determined by the CA under section 3-G with respect to such land has been deposited under sub-section (1) of sec. 3-H with the competent authority by the central government, (a) in the case of any land situated in any area falling within the metropolitan area, to the commissioner of Police: (b) in case of any land situated in any area other than the area referred to in (a), to the Collector of district: and such commissioner or Collector, as the case may be , shall enforce the surrender of the land, to the competent authority or to the person duly authorized by it. (6) Section 3F Gives right to enter into the land where land has vested in the Central Govt. under Section 3-D. (7) Section 3G Under this section CA determines the amount of compensation for land acquired. 7-5 In association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Before proceeding to determine the amount under sub section (1) or sub section (2) the competent authority shall give a public notice published in two local newspapers inviting claims from all persons interested in the land to be acquired. Such notice shall state the particulars of the land and shall require all persons interested in such land to appear in person or by an agent or by a legal practitioner before the CA at a time and place and to state the nature of their respective interest in such land. If the amount determined by the CA is not acceptable to either of the parties, the amount shall on an application by either of the parties, be determined by an Arbitrator to be appointed by the Central Govt. When the amount determined under section 3-G by the Arbitrator is in excess of the amount determined by the competent authority, the Arbitrator may award interest at 9% per annum on such excess amount from the date of taking possession under Section 3-D till the date of the actual deposit. 7.8 Acquisition of Land and DeterminatIon of Replacementvalue of land & provision thereof budget Land surveys for payment of compensation shall be done on the basis of updated official records and ground facts. The land records shall be updated relating to title / classification / current use of land for ensuring adequate land compensation. For determining classification / current use of official land records as they are on the cut off date (date of notification u/s 3- A) shall be taken under consideration. If 75% or more holding of a PAP / PDP is acquired or when the part of land remaining after acquisition becomes economically unviable, the owner of such land shall have the right to seek acquisition of his entire contiguous holding provided the residual land is less than MEH (when total holding after acquisition is less then district's average agriculture land holding). The Project authority should determine the possible replacement cost of land. Fol this purpose, land surveys will be done by project authorities in association with representative of PAP and professional assessor. VWhile determining the replacement cost of land, project authority will take recourse to three systems of assessment described below:- * Taking into account such prescribed rates or the average of the actual transactions rates of similar lands for past three years for which sale deeds are registered. * Taking into consideration 20 times of the annual value of gross production of the concerned land, averaged over preceding five years. * 'Circle rates' of land determined by the state govt. under Indian stamp act for the purpose of registration of sale deeds under Indian Registration Act of 1908 The replacement cost to be fixed up by the project authority shall be the amount, which shall be the highest among the three amounts arrived at by the aforesaid three alternative methods. In case replacement cost is higher than the market value determined by competent authority the difference shall be paid in the form of assistance. Compensation for trees will also be based on their market value in case of timber -bearing trees and replacement cost in case of fruit bearing trees as per the rates decided by the competent authority in consultation with Department of Agriculture, Forest, Horticulture, Sericulture etc. as the case may be. The circle rates which are indexed every two years, are often very close to the replacement value. Compensation will be paid at circle rates. 7-6 In association with Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Determination of replacement value by taking into account 20 times the annual value of gross production of the concerned land over preceding five years has not worked satisfactorily based on Consultant's previous experience mainly due to non-availability of authentic data. Based on detail interaction with landowners along the Allahabad bypass alignment, provision of 30% additional payment over and above the compensation rate as assistance will be quite close to the land payments at replacement value and accordingly provision has been made in the budget. Determination of unit rate of compensation on NH-2 under - TNHP Unit rate of land compensation which formed the basis of award by Competent Authority (C.A.) was worked out as under:- D.M. constituted a committee of ADM, CRRO, Naib Tehsildar and Revenue Staff. Committee examined all BANAMAS (Revenue Record) year wise, village wise and on case- to-case basis for at least 3 years from the cut of date i.e. date of notification U/S 3A including current/latest banamas and details were recorded in FORM 11 A under following columns. S.No., Date of Banama, Seller's name, Purchaser's name, Plot No., Area, Total sale price, Rate per Sq. Mtr. After lot of deliberation and interaction amongst committee members and arriving at consensus, rates were approved and villagewise order was issued by Competent Authority. In particular case where Banama rates are much higher than circle rates, the later is recommended by the committee. 7.9 Procedure/Methodology to be followed for payment of Land compensation After hearing of objections received after publication of gazette notification U/S 3D, competent Authority determines unit rates of compensation, which forms the basis of award. In consultation with Project Director PIU, Competent Authority makes a programme of announcement of award and disbursement of compensation in the field area. With prior intimation of date. time & venue, all titleholders along with village Lekhpal and Pardhan assemble. Compensation details include name of Title Holder, Village, Tehsil and District along with Khatauni/Khsara no, area being acquired, unit rate, cost of trees and total amount due together with date of payment. Compensation amount is worked on the basis of rates approved by D M, verification of land owners is done by Lekhpal and village Pardhan. Revenue staff gets receipt/acknowledgement of land owners on FORM 15 H in duplicate and thereafter Account payee cheques are handed over to them. To ensure transparency all payments will be made in villages/settlements in public meetings. The district administration, the CRRO and representative of the NGOs will be present for the purpose. 1.10 Acaulsiton of Properties / Assets and Valuation The value of the houses, buildings and other immovable properties of the PAPs will be determined for the purpose of payment of compensation at the relevant B.S.R without depreciation. 7-7 ^ ^4 In association with r4 W Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Community losses can be difficult to translate into compensation payments to individuals. Some community loss, in essence is irreplaceable e.g. social net work people build whilst living a long time in the same place - Panchyat Ghar/ Temples or Giant tree where / under which the community congregates to discuss, negotiate and socialize. Compensation has been provided for properties belonging to the community or for common places of Worship, which are acquired for the project. This compensation amount will be used for construction of the same at the new places (relocation). In case of community losses the community will be involved in choosing a useful substitute benefit. Types of community losses and other sources of irrigation /water to be relocated /compensated are as under:- (a) Schools/Educational Institutes (b) Temple/Religious structures (c) Panchayat Ghars (d) Police Station (e) Tube wells (f) Wells Table 7.3 indicates the no. of community structures to be relocated. The details of affected community properties village wise has been enclosed as Annexure 7.4. There are a few natural depressions coming along the alignment, which gets filled up during rainy season. However, one pond being use by the village community and falling within alignment has been saved by adjustment of the alignment. Table 7.3 Impact on Common Properties S.No. Properties No. Remark 1.

However, even after payment of compensation PAPs would be allowed to take away the materials salvaged from their houses and shops etc. acquired by the project and no charges will be levied upon them for the same. A notice to that effect will be issued to take away the materials so salvaged within 48 hours of demolition. If not taken within the given time the same will be disposed by the project authority without giving any further notice. PAPs receiving compensation for trees will be allowed to take away timber of their acqulired trees for their domestic use. Trees standing on Govt. Land will be disposed off by open auction by the forest department. 7-8 y v In association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Ailahabad Bypass of NH-2 1.12 Deposit and Payment of Land Compensation Amlount -3K After depositing of compensation amount determined under sec. 3-G, the Competent Authority shall on behalf of Central Government pay the amount to the person or persons entitled thereto before taking possession of land. The payment of the amount would be made in accordance with the subsection (I) through (6) of section 3H of the National Highway Act. Where several persons claim to be interested in the amount deposited under sub section (1) the competent authority shall determine the persons who in its opinion are entitled to receive the amount payable to each of them. If any dispute arises as to the apportionment of the amount payable to any person the Government shall refer the dispute to the decision of the principal civil court of the original jurisdiction within the limits of whose jurisdiction the land is situated. Where the amount determined under section 3-G by the arbitrator is in the excess of the amount determined by the competent authority the arbitrator may award interest at 9% per annum on such excess amount from the date of taking possession under section 3-D till the date of the actual deposit thereof. 7.13 Land Acqulsition Plan Schedule under NHAI -Act-Targets and Achlevements As per condition in Civil Works Contracts, land free from all encumbrances is to be made available to the contractor in phased manner. As per schedule discussed in the meeting with project authorities, the time for the commencement of work is Oct. 2003. Accordingly Table 7.4 represents the land acquisition schedule for the project. This is based on discussions with managers (technical) NHAI, PIU, Allahabad.

There was some slippage in the targets for payment of compensation for NH-2 due to following reasons. I Frequent transfers of designated Land Acquisition officers. 2. Revision of unit rates of land by DM and consequent delay in finalizing of awards. 3. Delay in verification of titleholders by NGOs Here in case of Allahabad bypass, because of start of Land Acquisition process well in advance, sufficient cushion is available to take care of any possible slippage and no bottleneck is expected in making the land available to contractors to start the construction activities as per schedule i.e. October 2003. 1.14 Hearing of Oblections within 21 days of Publication of NotlicatIon under Section 3A After issuing of notification under section 3 A, any person interested in the land may, within twenty-one days from the date of publication of the notification under sub-section (1) of Section 3A, object to the use of the land for the purpose or purposes mentioned in that sub- section. Every objection under sub-section (1) shall be made to the competent authority in writing and shall set out the grounds thereof and the competent authority shall give the objector an opportunity of being heard, either in person or by a legal practitioner, and may, after hearing all such objections and after making such further inquiry, if any, as the competent authority thinks necessary, by order, either allow or disallow the objections. The Competent Authority at Kaushambi, Pratapgarh as well as at Allahabad received number of objections. The general objection filed with the Competent Authority was with a request not to acquire land, as this was their only source of livelihood. However, after explaining the necessity and urgency of land acquisition PAPs were convinced and desired adequate compensation. For hearing objections under section 3 A, by Competent Authority, field visit is necessary and mandatory and requires issue of prior notices intimating date, time and place of hearing of objections. A sample application from Sh. Baldevo Prashad of village Sarat Fateh, Teshsil Saraon of Allahabad district dated 26/28 10/ 2002 registered in the Competent Authority office at S.No. 93 along with signed copy of notice for hearing on 20-11-02 together with sample report / findings / decision of Competent Authority enclosed as Annexure -7.2.

Thereafter, 3D notification is issued. 7.15 Hearing of Oblections received within 21 days of Publication of Notification under section 3D As per stipulation in the NH- Act, title holder can file objections within 21 days from the date of notification under section 3 D regarding any mistakes about name, ownership, plot no/survey no, area and name of owner etc. Under Section 3G; Competent Authority (C.A.) determines the amount of compensation for the land acquired. Before proceeding to determine the amount, C.A. shall give a public notice published in the local papers inviting claims from all persons interested in the land to be acquired. Notice brings out the particulars of the land and shall require all persons interested in such land to appear in person or by an agent or by a legal practioner before the C.A at a time and place and to state the nature of their respective interests in such land. For hearing objection under section 3D, by C.A. field visit is not mandatory. The objections can be heard in office but prior and timely notices intimating date, time and place of hearing objections have to be sent to concerned PAP. .16 Transfer of Government land In addition to acquisition of private land, acquiring Row will entail transfer of about 94 ha of Govt. Land. In case of Govt. land, District Collector / Magistrate will facilitate inter departmental transfers in the respective district. PIU will coordinate with the revenue authorities and the concerned departments for the transfer of the govt. land. Mutation of land has to be in the name of National Highway Authority of India. PIU will participate in the process actively. Transfer of Govt. land will also involve some token / nominal expenditure which has not been projected in the RAP. This can be taken care of by the contingency provision. Managers (Technical) PIU Allahabad can take up the matter with Govt. at each district level to get the transfer & Mutation done in the name of NHAI. Govt. land coming along the alignment is mostly fallow/waste land (usar/banjar/navin parti) and now proposed for transfer is currently not under specific use and this should be available for construction of bypass. .117 Minimum Economic Holding IMEHI and Distrbcrs Average Land Holding Earlier the criteria was that if 75% or more land holding of the PAP is acquired and the residual land becomes economically unviable after acquisition then the owner of the land shall have the right to seek acquisition of his entire contiguous holding provided the residual land is below the MEH. Residual land was compared with the average agricultural landholding of the state. The alignment of Allahabad bypass passes through the fertile agricultural land with extensive irrigation facilities. The applicability of the MEH definition has been modified as a holding less than district's average agricultural land holding. As per district wise statistical overview, the districts average holding based on 1990-91 data is presented out as under: 7-11 In association with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 7.6 Average size of landholdings of Allahabad, Kaushambi & Pratapgarh districts No. of Area of Average size of District operational operational operational holdings Remarks holdings holdings (Ha) (Ha) Allahabad 635915 479751 0.75 Since at the time of the collection ol the census data Kaushambi district was the Kaushambi - - 0 75 part of Allahabad district, therefore the same avg size of holding has been taken for Kaushambi Pratapgarh 494368 247933 0.5 1 District wise status of 4155 TH agricultural families getting affected is as under: Table 7.7 Details of landholdings in comparison to MEH before & after acquisition Before Acquisition After Acquisition No. of N oofT No. of TH District Toldbls with dwith Absentee with No. of TH with Absentee Total holdings hodns Tl Total holdings holdings below TH Toa above below MEH above MEH MH blwMEH MEII Allahabad 476 2377 653 3506 235 2377+241=2618 653 3506 Kaushambi 38 134 117 289 23 134+15=149 117 289 Pratapgarh 188 29 143 360 171 29+17=46 143 360 Total 702 2540 913 4155 429 2813 913 4155 7.18 Entitlement Matrix As the alignment passes mostly through agricultural areas, special emphasis has been given to agricultural titleholders. The sub-categories of absentee land lord, mortgagee, those who purchase land without mutation, loss of land on which loan has been taken, informal tenants / share croppers both under formal and informal lease have been added to the entitlement matrix. Absentee landlord, mortgagee, for land purchased without mutation and loss of land on which loan has been taken will receive compensation at replacement cost and other assistances / allowances as per eligibility. The formal lease holders will get a financial assistance equivalent to the cost of one year gross harvest (based on last 3 years average) besides the subsistence allowance and training whereas those with informal lease will get the subsistence allowance and training. The subsistence allowance will be calculated as minimum wages for 9 months. Besides this there is a provision for crop compensation both for non-perennial crops and perennial crops X e. fruit trees. Transitional Allowance will be given to those agricultural titleholders who are being displaced; whose land is becoming unviable after acquisition and to those affected whose land is viable after acquisition The period, which the EP will take to restore his livelihood, is taken as nine months for displaced category, nine months for EP whose residual land is becoming unviable after acquisition and three months for those whose residual land is viable after acquisition. 7-12 -419, In association with Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Absentee landlord will receive only compensation at the replacement cost or actual market value. 7.19 Land Estimates Total land requirement of 781 ha has been worked for different purposes of the project. Most of the land Is private land falling in all the three districts covering 110 villages. Impact of land acquisition is maximum in Allahabad district while Pratapgarh district is least impacted. Maximum land acquisition involves agricultural land falling in rural area along the bypass alignment. 4155 TH's agriculture families are getting affected from land acquisition out of which 516 are becoming landless. The details of Land Estimates have been enclosed in Annexure 7.2. Table 7.8 Land required for the project S.

For the project maximum land is to be acquired for construction of ROW. However, provision has been made for wayside amenities like truck lay byes with parking facilities in the form of rest area, bus parking, car parking, petrol pump and traffic aid post to facilitate the users. In addition land for two toll plazas one at the start and other at the end of the project stretch has also been included. Major land requirement for interchangers at start and end, at important crossings of bypass and for 8 nos. overpasses, 32 pedestrian cum vehicular underpasses and 7 pedestrian underpasses have been added. The details of 110 villages along the alignment have been enclosed in the Annexure 7.3 Borrow area land has been estimated as 210 Ha and this will, be taken on lease by the contractor temporarily and handed back after reclamation to the owners. The land under borrow areas has not been added to the total land requirements of the projects. Table 7.9 Land required for specific purpose for Allahabad bypass S.

Of the total land about 80% is irrigated agricultural land, 10% non irrigated agricultural land, about 7-8% fallow land, and balance 2- 3% is water bodies (both flowing and stagnant). The land use pattern of the area does not include any forest area. 122 Agriculture, Irrigation and Cropping Pattern Because of its fertile soil, the entire area along the proposed alignment is the centre of agricultural activities. Agnculture is the main stay of the people covering about 68% of the population of the area. However, the average land holding size is less then 0 5 Ha With increasing population and most of the land holdings being uneconomical, a majority of the population works as land less labourers and survive at subsistence level. Water requirement for agricultural purposes is mostly met through irrigation canals. Tubewells, Pumping sets and Wells are the other sources of irrigation. A variety of crops are grown in this region. The crops could be broadly classified as Food Crops and Cash / Commercial Crops. 86% of the cultivated area is devoted to food crops mainly for local consumption. The principal food crops are wheat, rice, millet, bajra, gram and other cereals, while cash crops include oil seeds, sugar cane and cotton and have much smaller percentage of cultivated area. 7.23 Expediting the Process of Land Acoulsitlon Revenue Department has an influencing role in Land Acquisition proceedings and initiation of resettlement process. Unless compensation process is prompt and efficient, project implementation process will get delayed Ensuring timely land acquisition is demanding and requires full time involvement of the designated officials. Chakbandi work is also going on in the area. Land records in respect of holdings and ownership is being updated by the DM/ADM through Revenue Department working tinder his administrative control. Revenue Department may be prevailed upon to expedite updating 7-14 In associatIon with ,< p Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for AJlahabad Bypass of NH-2 of revenue record on prionty along the alignment area: to avoid any difference in physical ownership versus revenue record; mutation not being carried out despite the sale / purchase; land still in the name of demised family head although division amongst his descendants/sons had been agreed and decided during his life time etc. Many a times, to save, registration charges levied by the state Govt. under Indian Stamp Act for the purpose of registration of sale deeds, transfer of land normally takes place without mutation which creates problem for payment of land compensation to the entitled person/ real affected person. Sometimes several persons claim to be interested in the amount deposited under sub section (1), then the competent authority needs to determine the person(s), who in his/her opinion, are entitled to receive the amount payable. To ensure that land transactions are incorporated in the revenue record, provision has been made in the entitlement matrix for Allahabad bypass stating that in case of current land transactions, where process of mutation of the sale deed has not been carried out, PIU/NGOs shall facilitate the process of land registration and mutation. The cost of registration will be deducted from the total compensation and intimation to this effect will be submitted to District administration prior to the issue of section 3G notifications. Non-updation of records can create difficulties in disbursement of compensation to real affected persons based on experience on NH-2 under TNHP, which are detailed below: (a) A father having 2 sons and possessing land died. After his death land was transferred to his two descendant sons and division was recorded in Govt. revenue records. During acquisition of land one of the sons is affected but since L.A. people have not updated their land records and therefore compensation was paid to both the sons. Later on a representation was made to C.A to rectify the error. (b) A plot of village in Tehsil Akbarpur, although not appearing in notification U/s. 3D, but was to be acquired. As per revenue records this plot already existed in state road alignment, for which they might have been paid compensation. But as per revenue records, this is still in the name of applicant/owner. This may be a case of non DAKHAL-KHARAJ (Deletion) - which needs to be looked into by revenue staff/competent authority to satisfy the PAF's Therefore, CA should take precautions in providing compensation to the rightful owners only by updating records. Updating of records needs to be pursued by the PIU & NGOs. Complete coordination and rapport has to be maintained by the Project Director supported by CRRO/Managers (Technical) at PIU Allahabad with Revenue Department for getting full cooperation. GM (Environment), at NHAI headquarters should closely monitor the land acquisition status. To meet procedural requirements of the NH Act, retired revenue officer fully conversant with the Act may be employed to expedite land acquisition process. Detail land measurements, preparation of notifications, compensation/award papers is a very cumbersome, specialized process which can be expeditiously handled by experienced people in this discipline and for this NHAI should place retired Revenue Officer with support staff at the disposal of Competent Authority (CA) to expedite land acquisition. This technique has proved very effective in implementing Land Acquisition process on other projects. Interaction with PAPs by Competent Authority and his officials explaining land acquisition process, dispelling doubts about assessment, valuation and final disbursement of compensation would go a long way in expediting / implementation of land acquisition. 7-15 In association with 414 Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 All efforts should be made to settle the grievances of PAPs as amicably as possible through NGO and GRCS at district level. The PAPs should be made aware that out of court settlements are preferable, as this will expedite settlement of disputes. Taking over possession of land where crop is standing will not be a bottleneck with the provision of crop compensation for non-perennial and perennial crops (fruit trees) in the project entitlement matrix. Even crop compensation can be saved if timely notice taking into account the maturity of the crop and planned requirement of land is issued to the landowners. 7-16 -017 In assoclatlmn wilth Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Institutional Arrangements & 8 Implementation Schedule 8.1 Background NHAI will have the overall responsibility for the implementation of the R&R component of the project. It will be responsible for implementing Resettlement & Rehabilitation activities in consultation with the affected people, considering R&R as an opportunity for socio-economic development of the people of the region as a whole. This chapter provides an assessment of the existing institutional arrangement within NHAI and reflects on capacity building/training issues that need to be addressed to ensure timely implementation of RAP. The institutional arrangement proposed for this project has been presented here with newly defined roles and responsibilities. 8.2 Exsting InstisUonal Capacity NHAI has an already established Environment and Social Development Unit (ESDU) at the head quarters, responsible for resettlement management and implementation of the RAP in TNHP and GTRIP. A brief review of the same has been documented in the ensuing sections. Organization at tle NKAI Head Quaners The ESDU is presently headed by General Manager (Environment) and assisted by one Deputy General Manager looking after implementation of RAP, EIA and EMP in TNHP & GTRIP. The unit is also responsible for policy guidance, coordination and contingency planning, monitoring and overall reporting for RAP implementation as well as for EIA and EMP. CrganizaUon al Structure at PIU At implementation level, a Project Implementation Unit headed by Project Director coordinates operational aspects in the field. The General Manager, ESDU coordinates the implementation of RAP with the Project Director. Currently, the PIU in Allahabad is headed by a Project Director and a Manager (Technical and Environment). 8.3 Proposed InstlWtuonal Framework 8.3.1 Proposed OrganizatIenal Structure at the NHAI Head Quarters The Environment and the Social Development Unit (ESDU) located at the NHAI head quarters will be responsible for overall monitoring and implementation of the RAP. Due to the quantum of work load and coordination requirements besides guidance in implemenation activities, it is suggested that the ESDU be strengthened by one additional manger exclusively for R&R activities. It is well understood that the manager would have necessary support staff. 8-1 In association with 10 Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Figure 8.1 THE INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT NHAI HEAD QUARTER ORGANOGRAM Member Technical (WB).

They would also appoint M&E Consultants for monitoring and evaluation of implementation of R & R activities. 8-2 zfl/ W In association with 'O4. Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 8.3.2 Proposed OrganIzational Structure at PIU The Project Director would coordinate all R&R activities at field level. The Project Director will be responsible for the overall execution of the RAP. For R&R implementation, office of the Project Director should be strengthened with two full time R& R Managers/CRROs, who will be in charge of the resettlement activities and will report to the Project Director. The R&R Managers will work closely with the District Collector to expedite the payments of compensation for land acquisition and relocation of the PAPs, where necessary. They will also facilitate the formation of District Level Committees and Grievance Redressal Committees for each district consisting of local representatives and other stakeholders, including PAPs to assist in the implementation of R&R activities within the District. The Project Director will monitor the progress of the work and ensure coordination between the relevant departments and District Level Committees. The PIU will appoint adequate supporting staff for resettlement management, preparation of details of land acquisition and its field implementation for expeditious implementation of the RAP. It is perceived that retired revenue officials of the state government could be employed as support staff for the land/revenue record works. The R&R cell will be further supported by District Level Committees comprising of Project Director, Competent Authority, Revenue officer, any other representative from District administration, representatives from pantchayats, PAPs representatives (at least eight selected from each social & economic category and capable of representing the people), NGOs and any other person of local eminence. Grievance Redressal Committees will also be formed at each District Head Quarter comprising of Project Director, PIU-NHAI, CRRO, District Magistrate or any other person nominated by the him, and local representatives of PAPs and NGO representative to look into grievances of the affected population. 8A District Level Committees The District Level Committee would be an integral part of the entire implementation process of R&R activities. Though the role of DLC in the TNHP was negated as in the TNHP the titleholders were not losing a substantial portion of the land and the relocation activities were limited to the non-titleholders only. Secondly, the level of participation of DLC was limited to the approval of the unit rates for the valuation of the structures of the NTH and also for the approval of the micro-plans for the NTH The level of participation of the DLC during the implementation process was limited . The nature of R&R activities are envisaged to be different in the case of ABP as the number of titleholders losing their entire land is quite high and the total number of titleholders getting affected is also high The role of DLC would be to ensure that the uniform process as well as the unit rates are adopted for the acquisition of the land so as to avoid any conflict situation The participation of the DLC is also envisaged in coordinating withthe distnct admunistration authorities for finalizing the site for relocation of the titleholders and also in establishing the linkages with the rural / regional banks for developing the credit facilities for the PAPs and also provide support in identification of the income generating opportunities for the PAPs The District Level Committees will be formed for every district, headed by the District Magistrate, competent authority appointed for land acquisition, Project Director and the CRRO from the PIU, NHAI, representative of the NGO and the representatives of the PAPs (8 in number from each socio-economic category), representatives of local govemment/panchayat samitees. The District Level Committees are ad hoc committees and will be dissolved once the implementation of the RAP is complete. The DLC shall be responsible for approval of the unit rates for deciding the replacement cost prior to the finalization of the awards by the competent authority of the land. DLC 8-3 In association withl ~4A, Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 shall also be responsible for the approval of micro-plans prior to the submission to the NHAI HQ for final approval. The District Level Committees will also help the PIU in establishing linkages with various government programs/schemes for the benefit of the eligible PAPs. The Committee shall also play an important role in finalizing the site for relocation of the CPRs, devlopment of resettlement sites / vendor markets by maintaining coordination with the district admnnistration authonttes The participation of the DLC in implementation shall be mandatory and all the decisions / issues arising henceforth shall be communicated to the DLC to ensure effective implementation. The Committee will thus facilitate the implementation of RP (resettlement plan) with local inputs and participation. 8.5 Grievance Redressal Comminees Grievance Redressal Committees (GRCs) will also be formed in every district through which the bypass traverses. The GRC at each district will comprise of the District Magistrate; Project Director, PIU-NHAI; CRRO, PIU-NHAI; a representative of the local bodies (Village/Block Panchayats or municipalities); a representative of the NGOs involved in implementing the RAP: and the representatives of the PAPs (at least two with one from vulnerable category). The main objectives of GRC will be to provide a platforn/mechanism to mediate conflicts (including compensation) and reduce legal proceedings, which often results in delayed completton of the projects. 8.5.1 Grievance Redressal Mechanism In case a PAP has any grievance related to the acquisitton of the land, loss of property, valuation, deciding of compensation / assistance or payment of compensation / assistance he may seek the redressal of the same by reporting the matter tn written to the concerned CRROs. The CRRO after analyzing the nature of grievance will handover the case to the NGO for resolving the issue. The NGO will verify the nature of the problem and the status on the field by carrying out necessary investigations. The NGO in close coordination with CRRO will then make efforts to resolve the issue and submit their report within 15 days of filing of complaint by the PAP. In case the NGO is not able to resolve the issue the pendtng issue will be handed over to the CRRO along-with the action taken and outcome report. The CRRO will take necessary steps for coordination with the Project Director & Dtstrict Administration Authorities (if required) to resolve this issue. In case the issue is resolved the report will be submitted by the CRRO to the Project Director regarding the actions taken and outcomes within 15 days after the handover of the issue by the NGO to the CRRO. In case the issue cannot be resolved then the same will be handed over to the GRC for amicable solution. The GRC will then call a meeting with all its representatives and the concerned PAP / PAPs to discuss the matter. The GRC will take-up necessary steps to resolve the issue by coordinating closely with the concerned department / district administration authority. The GRC will submit its report to the Project Director and NHAI - HQ within 6 weeks after the case is referred to them. In case the GRC is not able to resolve the issue the PAP has an option to move to the court for the resolution of the issue / conflict. In case the issue is to be settled in the court the NHAI / CA will withhold any payment of compensation or assistance till the decision from the court ts finalized. 8-4 In associalion with Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 8.6 CompetentAuthorItv Competent Authority (CA) means any person or authority authorized by the Central Government through the notification in the official Gazette to perform the functions of the competent authority for such area as may be specified in the notifications. The Central Government in exercise of the powers conferred by Clause (a) of Section 3 of NH Act of 1956 through gazette notification authorities ADM / DM / SDM / Special Land Acquisition Officer to acquire land, determine & disburse the compensation thereof. 8.7 Non-Government Organizations NGOs will be the cornerstone in the implementation stage of the RAP. The NGO will help in implementing various components of the RAP, particularly in verifying the number of PAPs and assessing the loss incurred by the individuals and compensation to be provided. The NGOs would report to the CRRO. NGOs shall be responsible to prepare micro plans for PAPs and for better use of compensation and rehabilitation assistance for more productive purposes. This may include loan arrangements, training etc. The NGOs will be involved during the entire duration of RAP implementation. Thus, involvement of NGOs will ensure that all the eligible PAPs will receive appropriate and justified entitlement and at the end of the project the PAFs/PAPs will have improved (or at least restored) their previous standard of living. The detailed TOR of the NGOs for carrying out the R&R activities is provided in the Annexure 8.1. 8.8 Evaluation Consultant An independent Evaluation Consultants would be hired by ESDU, NHAI to evaluate the impacts of R&R implemenation on the socto-economnc condition of the PAPs and analyze the efficiency of the process adopted by the NGOs in order to acheive the objectives of the project.. 8.9 Boles and Responsibilities The Table 8.1 provides a brief description of the roles and responsibilities assigned to the different key players for efficient and timely implementation of the RAP. 8.10 Training and Capacity Building The capacity building initiatives undertaken by NHAI are at the moment adequate to face the challenge of handling resettlement issues. However, certain R&R issues require attention and further strengthening. Amongst them, the most crucial is the issue of land acquisition followed by ensuring women's participation in the project, Identifying the Income Generating Schemes and the process to be adopted for the implementation of IGS - providing training to the PAPs, formulation of the SHGs, establishing the linkage with the existing markets available and identifying and establishing the linkages of the PAPs with the source of credit to sustain their commercial activities. 8-5 Inassoclationwith Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Table 8.1 Role & Responsibilities for Implementation of the RAP Level Implementation Staff Roles and Responsibilities * Overall in charge of all the project activities Corporate Member Technical (WB) * Oversee the progress of land acquisition and R&R activities.

The project shall provide adequate advance notice to the PAPs, who will be paid their compensation prior to start of the civil works. The implementation schedule has been prepared separately for the two construction packages ABP II & ABP III considering the number of villages in each package and the number of PAPs. The implementation schedule has been devised in a manner that the resettlement & rehabilitation of the PAPs is completed in implementation period of the project. The village wise list of PAPs is given in Annexure 8.4. The details of PAPs is as follows Package No. of villages No. of PAPs Titleholders Non-titleholders Total ABP 1 48 2026 36 2062 ABP 2 62 2231 50 2281 Total 110 4257 86 4343 8.13 CaPacity Building OTralning Capacity building is an important part of the RAP and thus has been specially emphasized as part of the implementation of the resettlement and rehabilitation programmes. The following training modules are suggested. Cost of training of NGOs, NHAI staff and the beneficiaries has been included in the RAP budget. 8-8 In association withl 41475/w- Consolidation ot Resetlement Action Plan tor ARlahabad Bypass at NH-2 8.13.1 Training for the NGO Personnel The NGOs will be required to upgrade their skill through training to be able to deliver the R&R components more effectively over time. Documentation and reporting of the progress of implementation will also be done by the NGOs, and therefore, the NGOs' staff will need to be trained for such purposes. 8.13.2 TraIning for the Beneficiaries of the Prolect The beneficiaries are to be provided with training in vocational skill, technical know how and for starting of production units and businesses. These training prograrmmes can be organized by the implementing agencies, based on the recommendations of the NGOs and depending upon the nature of skill requirement in the areas as desired by the eligible PAPs (choice of alternative livelihoods). In some cases such as the improved agricultural practices or handicrafts, which are dependent on the locally available raw materials etc., the NGOs can organize training by themselves. In the case of altemative livelihood schemes requiring technical expertise, use of technical training institutes such as Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) would be done. NHAI will facilitate the beneficiaries with such provisions available in individual districts. 8.13.3 Training for NHAI Staff The project officials or the NGOs can implement the RAP only when they gain conceptual clarity in translating the rehabilitation concepts in its correct perspectives. The RAP is to be seen as a process of development and the implementation plan as a management tool. The 'target-fulfilling' approach would need to be changed if the RAP is to be implemented as a 'process of development'. The NHAI and PIU staff would need to be extended a full training programme in evolving a "people centered development' process in all its projects in general. The NHAI will also have the responsibilities of assessing the training needs of the NGOs, and identifying the right organizations for imparting training. The NHAI will plan and arrange training programs in order to ensure smooth implementation of RAP. The areas are broadly demarcated and presented below, but would need to be revised periodically to modify the same with regard to the individual training needs of the personnel actually involved in implementation of the RAP. The following are some of the training programs that would facilitate the RAP to be implemented in its correct perspectives. * Understanding the policy guidelines, national context and framework for R&R, and how it will impact the affected people; * Understanding the implementation schedule step-by-step, and following them in implementation; * Importance of the baseline data, methods of collecting, retrieval of data; understanding the MIS package for managing the information; Understanding of the Land Acquisition Act and the NH Act, and their implications with reference to the Draft National Policy on Resettlement; * Preparing participatory micro-plans with the PAPs; * Initiating people's participation in income restoration; * Women's participation in income restoration through self-help groups; 8-9 In assoclatlUn with cort44, Consolidation of Reseiflement Action Plan for AJlahabad Bypass of NH-2 * Development of micro-enterprises with options available, harmonization of the micro-enterprises development schemes with the available resource base, and the, external factors and environment; and, * Development of social and economic indicators to measure the process of change. 8.13A Overall Training Plan for NHAI Staff Table 8.2 provides the training plan for the NHAI, with respect to the R&R components, and covers all the target groups described above.

(d) Initiation for the award of construction contracts so as to commence civil works by October 2003. To assist in the smooth implementation and monttoring of R&R activities, a detailed time based RAP implementatton schedule has been prepared In a chronologtcal order and is presented in Table 8.3. This schedule would facilitate EDSU, PIU, NGO, Evaluation Consultants and other stakeholders In coordinating completion of their activities and taking corrective measures in time, so that the project could be completed as per schedule. This would also assist PIU to complete land acquisition and initiate resettlement activities in a planned manner, so that civil works could commence as per schedule. 8-11 In association with t4 Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for AlJahabad Bypass of NH-2 1 Income Restoration 9.1 Introduction The livelihood restoration is an important part of rehabilitating socto-economic status of the project-affected communities. The R&R policy for Income Restoration provides alternative income generation/skill development activities aiming at various enabling strategies, through which PAPs can either, continue their previous occupation or can start new businesses. This section focuses on the impact on the livelihood of PAPs in the project area and provides a plan for restoring the income of PAPs in a way, that they are able to "regain previous living standards" or are left better off. 9.2 Status of Livelihood Affected Familles In the prolect area An overview of the various categories of livelihood-affected families in the project area includes the following: . Titleholder PAPs involved in land based economic activities (agricultureand allied activities), mainly comprising of PAFs loosing agriculture land. * PAPs (landless) involved in agriculture, horticulture as share-croppers, laborers. * PAPs involved in non-land based economic activities (owners and employees of shops, commercial installations, bnck kilns etc.) The details of the PAPs losing their livelihood are presented in Table 9.1. Table 9.1 Project Affected Families Losing Livelihood District Title holders share croppers Grand Total Agriculture Commercial Total (non-title Loss Loss holders) Allahabad 3506 7 3513 69 3582 Kaushambi 289 - 289 7 296 Pratapgarh 360 - 360 8 368 Total 4155 7 4162 84 4246 Source Prinary Data It can be viewed that maximum number of families losing their livelihood belong to the titleholder category (98.02%), whereas less than 2.0% belong to non-titleholder sharecropper category. 9.3 Income Restoration Measures The entitlement framework used for this project, provides following entitlements for income restoration of those, whose livelihood gets affected: (details of various provisions are provided in the entitlement matrix) All PAFs losing land will receive a transition allowance for 9 months, if residual portion of land becomes un-viable and for 3 months if the residual portion of land 9-1 In association wIth Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 is viable. They will also be compensated for the loss of perennial crops at market value and will receive the replacement cost, if there is any loss of fruit bearing trees. * All Families losing land are entitled to altemative economic rehabilitation support and training for up-gradation of skills. * Subsistence allowance calculated at minimum wages per month for six months, for families losing commercial structures, will be paid. * Replacement value of the immovable assets would be provided to all the families losing their residential and commercial properties including Interested Persons. * As per the entitlement framework, the project-displaced families belonging to the Vulnerable group are eligible for residential or commercial plots. The vulnerable group displaced families are entitled to receive the plot free of cost and non- vulnerable families will purchase it. Both the categories are otherwise further assisted in the form of transitional allowance for a period of 9 months to restore their livelihood as mentioned earlier. * Additional support mechanism will be provided to families, who will lose their primary source of income in the form of assistance towards income generating or vocational training option of the EP's choice. The training includes starting a suitable production or service activity. 9A Families Eligible for Income Restoration From the analysis of livelihood-affected families, it is evident that land-based economic activities are the major source of livelihood in the project area. The census and the socio- economic survey reveals that due to land acquisition a large number of PAFs will be losing their economic base. This will cause displacement of 520 families The livelihood affected families in the project area accounts for 4246 families. However, the families entitled for training for income restoration as per the entitlement framework are vulnerable displaced titleholders, persons losing commercial structure/assets and share-croppers only. Based on the above, families of different categories, eligible for income restoration have been identified and their respective category of entitlement is presented in Table 9.2. This accounts for 249 PAFs, which is about 6 percent of the total livelihood affected families. The detailed analysis of eligible families for income restoration, as presented in Table 9.3 shows that maximum percentage of families belong to Scheduled Caste category (50 percent) followed by Below Poverty Line families (34 percent), and rest (16%) being women headed households.

The occupational pattern identified in these districts reveals that 95 percent persons are engaged in agriculture and allied activities A comparative picture of the three affected districts reveals that Allahabad district accounts for a diverse range of activities besides agriculture and allied activities being the dominant one. However, the dominant skill/traits were masonry, carpentry, TV repair and driving. The commercial activity was confined to food, pan, grocery etc., which does not require very high skill levels. Similar trends were observed in families eligible for training under income restoration. Table 9. 4 Occupational Pattern in the Project Area District Major Occupations Agriculture and Allied Skill based Business Occupations Occupations Farming, dairy, poultry, Tailoring, carpentry, Grocery, tea and pan Allahabad marketing of agricultural masonry, driving, TV & stalls, snack shops, Allahabad produce (vegetables & tape recorder repairing, dhabas, hosiery, auto fruit marketing) pottery repair Farming, dairy, poultry, Masonry, TV & tape Grocery, tea and pan Kausambi marketing of agriculture recorder repairing, stalls, snack shops, Kausambi produce (vegetables & pottery dhabas, fruits) Farming, dairy, marketing Masonry, driving, TV & tea and pan stalls, Pratapgarh of agriculture produce tape recorder repairing, snack shops, dhabas, auto repair, pottery In general, competence levels of people involved with various occupations was not very high. Most of them were not trained formally and learned by observation. 9.6 Assessment of TraIning Needs for Eligible PAP's The emphasis under training needs assessment is two fold: first to assess the marketable/commercially exploitable ventures in and around the project area, and second to assess the existing educational/professional and other backgrounds of the entitled PAP's. The identification of resources needed to run commercially exploitable ventures and present skill levels of PAPs provided the consultant with the knowledge which could be used in developing a comprehensive income generation plan. 9-3 In assoclatlin with LU~~~~~~~~L L f * GD Z.

It has been found that commercial sex workers, truckers, sailors and construction workers are among the most vulnerable sections of the society, infected by HIV/AIDs. Highway often act as means of spreading HIV/AIDS disease with commercial sex workers in red light areas along the highways as well as truckers plying in that particular section. The findings of the demographic survey of truck drivers carried out in India reveals that 84 percent of the interviewees were suffering from some kind of a sexually transmitted disease (STD). In analysing the sexual behaviour of truck drivers, it was also found that 94 percent of the truck drivers infected with STD had visited sex workers during the past year. (NACO, 2001) It is estimated that road transport amounts to 70% of the total transportation in the country and the number of mobile persons engaged in road transportation comprises almost 5 million truck drivers and their helpers/assistants. These people are often, accused of spreading HIV/AIDS along with STDS (Sexually Transmitted Diseases). Apart from them, their sex partners in most cases the commercial sex workers (CSW) also act as key agents in spreading such diseases. Thus, there is a need to address the spread of highway diseases and take necessary action in controlling the spread of such diseases involving the truckers and the CSWs in a strategic action oriented programme. In case of new alignment of Allahabad Bypass one more dimension is associated i.e. the population, which has been far away from the National Highway, would come across with the introduction of new highway activities. In the piesent chapter an effort would be made to address HIV/AIDs issues. To make the surrounding community aware of these issues an implement able plan would be prepared for the project area. 12.2 HIV/AIDS and Health Risks In the Prolect Area The proposed Allahabad Bypass forming a part of the NH-2 section of the golden quadrilateral has been envisaged as a major generator of economic development. The proposed Bypass is likely to pass through the vast rural hinterlands of the Allahabad, Kausambhi and Pratapgarh region. The construction of new highway would certainly change the panorama of economic activities in this region. The changes in the socio- economic activities of the near by settlements would generate a conducive environment for mixing population, this may lead to spread of HIV/AIDS and other communicable diseases among the rural community. Viewing the complexity of the spread of HIV /AIDS and in absence of any models to predict the increase in propensity of HIV infection, It may assumes that as the intensity of traffic on highway increases the disease may spread at a faster rate. Hence substantial studies and comprehensive baseline surveys have been conducted in project area to In assoclaUon with Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for AJlahabad Bypass of NH-2 assess the exact level of their knowledge & magnitude of this disease along the bypass section of NH-2. In the process of carrying out the social studies, the consultant has also conducted surveys at several locations to assess the level of awareness about HIV/AIDs. These surveys were carried out at two levels i.e. on specific locations of Bypass and near by rural settlements. * Specific Locations level. * Rural Settlement level. The main target groups in the highway sector were mainly the village people, truckers and commercial sex workers as well as people directly impacted form the projects assess the awareness level among the people about HIV/Aids social surveys were conducted. The basic objectives of these surveys are given below. 12.3 The main objectives of the survevs * To assess the level of awareness among the stakeholders. * To assess the nature of sexual practise prevailing among the target groups. * Information on sexual networking. * To identify different types of sex workers working in the area. * To examine the awareness levels on HIV/AIDS among the truckers. . Present availability of health services addressing STD diagnosis and treatment and their perceived accessibility and appropriateness. 12A The process adopted for assessing highway related disease In the Prolect area The present study has been designed in such a manner so that the prevalence of existing pattern of HIV/AIDS along the proposed bypass through rapid assessment process may be assessed scientifically. The study also endeavours to assess the STD/HIV vulnerability of different population groups at specific locations of the project corridor. As the study has been carried out as rapid assessment. The study brings to light the emerging issues related to the spread of disease in different sections of the society. This has also suggested some mitigative measures that need to be adopted for addressing the target groups. This has helped consultant in preparing sustainable Implementation schedule. In addition to the technical input the present study has also highlight the roles and responsibilities of the different agencies for its better implementation. The survey for assessing the impact of HIV/AIDS was carried out in association with a local NGO SOUP, Society for Underprivileged Peoples. The methodology and key findings for the area specific and village surveys has been discussed below: 12A1 Area Specific StudY The purpose of area specific study has been carried out at three critical junctures, one being the starting point of the project corridor (Khaga), second being the exit point at Handia and the third being near the intersection around SH-38 and the proposed Bypass alignment. These locations were specially selected, wherein Dhaba, eating joints and rest places exist and predominance of target groups like truckers, commercial sex workers would be found. 12- 2 -01: In association vnth ,1- Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 The area specific study was mainly carried out at three points namely: * The proposed entry point of the bypass (Kokhraj) * Exit point of the bypass (Handia) * Near the intersection point SH-38 and the proposed bypass (truckers plying along NH- 2 and SH-38 Allahabad - Lucknow Road, the closest point to the proposed bypass). The two matn methods adopted for assessing the HIV /AIZDS impact in these locations were through questionnaires and focus group discussions. However the surveys for area specific survey have been mainly limited to the truckers who form a considerable percentage in spreading this disease in the highway sector. The total percentage of repondent (truckers) was around 67 percent and the number of group discussions held was around 24. Focus group discussions were carried out in different places near the survey points with the truckers and their attendants. The aim of the FGDs were to generate information pertaining to knowledge, sexual practice and preparation altitude about STD/HIV, health seeking behaviour, and access to health facilities Table 12.1 Survey Points for HIV/AIDS Surveys Number of Date Survey points (Route Truckers No. Of Truckers discussion in the Name) Surveyed in 24 Responded route h rs.rot SH-38/ proposed bypass 24.01.2002 alignment 12 86 (near to Allahabad- 121 78 Lucknow Road) 25 01.2002 NH-2 km. 158.0 372 228 8 (Kokraj) 26.01.2002 NH-2 km. 245.0 353 259 10 I (H andia) _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Total _I_ 846 565 24 Source. primary survey, 2001 Area specific findings . Very few truckers were aware of STD/HIV/AIDS, while only few had heard of a disease called AIDS. * During the survey it was found that 70 percent of the truckers were involved in sexual practices with the commercial sex workers. Out of which 75% were aware of symptoms on STDs. * Two types of sex workers were identified in the area belonging to the fixed and flying category. . Fixed CSWs are available at the fixed places mostly in roadside "Dhabi's" which is also their place of sexual practise. These constitute 75% of the CSWs. * The flying CSWs constitute only 25% who boarded the trucks and travel along with the truckers and get dropped at nearby places/cities. . Prolonged absence from home has been identified as the primary cause to seek commercial sex on highways. . Truckers informed that they were not aware of good/ accessible treatment facilities. They also informed that during any such problems most of the time they get treated by local doctors. Some of them informed that good doctors ask for huge money for complete care of the disease. 12A2 Village level Survey In assoclaUon with 5> 2 Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 In addition to the studies conducted above, the census and socio-economic baseline survey also elicited information on the spread and presentation of HIV/AIDS/STDs in the affected villages due to development of the new bypass. In all the affected villages FGDs were conducted among both men and women to assess their level of awareness on HIV/AIDS and solicit suggestions for prevention and spread diseases. The Focus group discussions were car-ied out in different places near the survey points with the truckers and their attendants. The aim of the FGDs was to generate information pertaining to knowledge, sexual practice and preparation altitude about STD/HIV, health seeking behaviour, and access to health facilities. Village level findings * Majority were aware of the existence of red light areas but were not aware of sexually transmitted diseases. * Majority of them had not heard of the disease like AIDS, HIV etc. * From the discussions with the male members it was found that:- • People were aware of the existence red light areas, in Allahabad town and Handia. * Men informed that there were red light pockets in the villages/project area. * Men were aware of symptoms on STDs. * The villagers felt the need of mass-scale awareness campaign on HIV/AIDS during the construction of the bypass. * People reported that there were no known cases of people suffering from HIV/AIDS. * Two types of sex workers were identified: Fixed sex workers & * Flying sex workers. * Very few sex workers were suffering from STD. * Sex workers were involved in commercial sex due to poverty. * In access control bypass the chances of involvement of flying sex workers with truckers and other vehicles users has been identified as a possibility. * NHAI provides financial assistance to CSWs in promoting socio-economic well being and support in their investigation with the main stream population. 12.5 observations and Discussions The interactions with the truckers revealed a very low awareness level related to HIV /AIDS, even though a considerable amount of them (70 percent) have been engaged in sexual practices. The truckers face professional and social degradation and are stigmatised for living a sexually promiscuous life style. They seem to prefer to have sexual relationship, irrespective of age and marital status. The symptoms of STD have been mainly noticed among the men and children. There are cases of HIV infection in Kokhraj in Kausambhi and villages in Handia. Though there are no red light localities in Allahabad but the Dhaba on G. T. Road cater the sexual need for travelers especially the truck drivers and village elite's. The surveys also revealed that the Dhaba in Atrampur Soram are the activity center of floating prostitution. The female sex workers working around the NH-2 sector are generally mobile in this section and come from roadside villages, indulging in this practice due to their poor socio-economic conditions. The interactions with the vulnerable population groups on different risks and adequacy of service provision for health care is inadequate. On the whole the apathy of poor socio-economic conditions of the rural masses, low literacy and In assoclaUtio with 12-4 Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 awareness level, uncertainty factors and risks involved in highway section have been significant contributors in spreading of the disease in the project area. Poor medical facilities, sub standard blood banks on the highway and apathy of the health providers compel them to seek improper treatment for STD. The other fatal disease is that of polluted drinking water, which has been causing health hazard like Hepatitis and large number of persons suffering from intestinal and liver infections have also been traced. 12.6 RecommendaUons and Measures for Awareness Generation and arresting the spread of HIV/AIDS Since, the spread of highway disease has become one of the most growing concerns by policy makers, planners and bureaucrats, the government intervention in the entire process will play a very significant role in controlling the spread of such fatal diseases. Some of the basic measures that may be adopted to mitigate such disease in the project area include: Health SUrVeYS: are important to make an inventory of the status of health of the migratory men (truckers and their assistants) and people along the project corridor. Settlements falling under the impact zone of the project corridor, especially those designated as resting areas should be surveyed to understand the nature and occurrence of diseases. Patients of STD/AIDS etc. should be re-surveyed to find out the cause of contamination. Analysing all these information, strategies could be developed to take further steps in controlling the spread of highway diseases. KARP (Knowledge, Attitude, Behavior and Practicel surveY: needs to be conducted as it provides an insight into various dimensions in which people look at the problem. It also helps in understanding the dos, don't and the taboos associated with a subject like STD/HIV/AIDS. This understanding helps in formulating behavior change communication materials. An effective strategy would be to incorporate various awareness generation programmes within the existing government programmes of mother and childcare through primary health care centers. Awareness Campaigns: The awareness generation should incorporate more of audiovisual mediums and local art and modes of entertainment for spreading the message. This is important, as most of the target audience may not be literate. Mediums like 'nautankf', the local theatre and 'puppet shows' in the local language are generally very popular among the villagers. Also messages on the radio through the local 'Akash Vani' center will reach out to a larger population. Special messages against alcoholism and against discrimination towards the girl child should also be featured in the 'nautankil' and 'puppet shows'. Apart from these, a very popular form of entertainment in the North, is the 'bioscope', or what is popularly known as 'video halls'. Screening of small films on HIV/A1DS at the beginning of each show could be effective as the young population generally gather around the video halls. Various festivals and fairs held during these times should also be targeted for dissemination of information. Other measures like Signage/Hoardings, Vehicle stickers and Condom vending machines are also few significant measures In association 2ith 41:71~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~yl/w~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~~/44t~ Consolidation of Resenlement Action Plan for Atlahabad Bypass of NH-2 Provislons of Health Facillties And Services: There should be provision of health facilities and services where the patients can avail of treatment and get cured. Strict measures should be taken to maintain the secrecy of the patients who are afraid of ex- communication, if exposed. * Early diagnosis and effective treatment of STDs should be considered as an important strategy, not only for controlling STDS, but also for preventing HIV/AIDS. * Vulnerable communities should be provided with free treatment facilities through the health centres and hospitals. * Ambulatory health units may be employed to treat patients along the corridor especially where health centres are not present in the vicinity. Moreover some may prefer to seek the help of mobile clinics/ health units for services related to STDs owing to the fear of being identified for such treatment at static locations, * Patients should be handled with care and comfort and they be assured about the confidentiality of the treatment they are undergoing. * Enlisting of commercial sex workers at resting areas along the project corridor is required to I be made to know the number of persons engaged in commercial sex This is essential for monitoring the cases of occurrence of infection among them, cases of treatment undertaken and progress thereof, cases of HIV/AIDS among CSWS, etc. These CSWs should be provided with health care services and certified with their status of health after regular check-ups. Other measures: * Developing appropriate and sensitive behavior change communication materials like posters, songs and plays for telecast over radio. * Organizing camps for awareness generation about the diseases and knowledge about controlling the spread of such diseases * Making available training program for the health workers of the villages on STD/ HIV/AIDS * Providing for better medical services at the grass root through either increased support to existing health centers or developing mobile health units, under government responsibility. * Conducting health surveys along the corridor to find out the nature of spread of these diseases. 12.7 Institutional Arrangement and Co-ordinaUon with other Agencies Since HIV/AIDS has been attaining the epidemic proportion in the many countries across the world and India being one of the most vulnerable nations, the Government of India without wasting time initiated steps and started pilot screening of high risks population. At the National Level, Ministry of Health and Famnly Welfare constituted a National AIDS Committee comprising representatives from various sectors with a view to bring together various stakeholders at a common platform in addressing the issue of HIV/AIDS. At the State level, an empowered committee was constituted by the States either under the chairmanship of chief secretary or additional chief secretary at par with the National AIDS control board at the centre level. This committee has been responsible for taking policy decisions for implementing HIV/AIDS control programme in respective states and approve administrative and financial actions. Infact viewing the complexities of the In associaton with 12-6 Consolidation of Resettlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 committees, the State AIDS control societies was later created with its members representing from various ministries and Non governmental organizations. The success stories of these societies in Tamil Nadu, led to the Government of India to advise other states to follow the similar pattern of implementation of the National AIDS Control programme. In line with the above, the State AIDS Control society in the project area would also play a pivotal role in determining the HIV/AIDS control and awareness programme. However an intersectoral collaboration needs to be intiated in the areas identified as Transport Health, Reproductive and Child Health Programmes and National AIDS control programme II (NACP) in the major World Bank funded projects. Once the initiative is mobilized at the Donor Agency level, the top down approach of percolation of initiatives and networking from the National, State, Distrcit to Block level in project area corridors will be lot more smoother. With the transport sector playing an important role in transmitting HIV/AIDS, Ministry of Road and Highways (MoRT&H) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare must play a significant role in implementing the guidelines laid down under the NACP-II as well as incorporating new focus areas related to control HIV/AIDS in the transport sector. The National Highways Authority of India at the State and PIU level in collaboration with the State AIDS control societies of Uttar Pradesh, Department of Health and Family Welfare, other stakeholders like NGOs and Contractors should work towards effective implementation of HIV /AIDS intervention programmes. The proposed action plan for conducting various activities related to awareness generation and control of HIV/AIDS has been provided in the ensuing section. 12-7 In assoclation wIM A 41-15--Myl/W~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~,J 0 a) -) C~~~~~~~~~~~~~~a C)\ C 0 ) ) 0 <~~~~~ co < I- co co 0 on ! ) z c LA. a) 0) w 0) -. .

Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 Annexure - 11.3 Reporting Mechanism for Flow of Information Reporting is an essential Quarterly Project Monitoring and Evaluation tool. Stage I - Monitoring 1. Monthly summary and cumulative reports prepared by the NGOs, GRCs and district level committees should be given to the PIU for archival purposes when the NGO has completed its mandate, rather than to submitting the individual records to the PIU monthly. All reports will have to be compiled within fifteen (15) days at the end of each month. > RAP/ Internal Monitoring will be implemented at the contract package level, GRCs are obliged to be organized at the district level. Where a package traverses more than one district, the monitoring reports from the GRCs will have to be compiled by the relevant NGO or the R & R Cell into a single report for the package as a whole. 1. The R & R Cell will be responsible for consolidating the monthly monitoring reports submitted by the NGOs. These monthly reports will reflect the qualitative aspects of the input and output, carrying out a comparative analysis of the progress made from the previous stage. Based on this compilation, R & R would finalise necessary remedial actions for the perceived emerging problems through issuance of instructions to the concerned NGOs and the GRCs. 2. The R & R Cell will submit a copy of its monthly synthesis separately for physical and financial components to the PIU. Stage II - Evaluation 1. An external agency independent of the project or a local panel of experts will be engaged to carry out the Monitoring & Evaluation and reporting of the implementation of the RAP after the PAFs have been displaced from the ROW. This agency will do the evaluation and recommend necessary changes/ issues to the PIU and the NHAI headquarters for consideration. 2. The external evaluation agency (or agencies) is expected to submit monthly & quarterly monitoring reports, 3 evaluation reports to the NHAI headquarters. The report should contain all the data collected, critical analysis of the same alongwith with a comparative analysis with reference to pre-project and post- project status in the socio-economic conditions of the PAPs. 3. The R & R Cell, after receiving report from external evaluation agency, will review the same within 15 days. Within a week thereafter, the R & R Cell will submit a report to the PIU with consolidated recommendations from the evaluation reports. 4. The PIU will seek guidance from the NHAI headquarters, especially from the social/environment unit at the NHAI headquarters regarding the actions on the evaluation reports and will submit a 'action taken report' (ATR) to the NHAI headquarters within 15 days of receiving the report from the R & R Cell. Annexure 113 Pg 1 In association with Consolidation of Resetlement Action Plan for Allahabad Bypass of NH-2 5. The ATR will be updated by the PIU at intervals of 3 months (such updating will correspond to the quarterly reports on overall progress monitoring of the project).
