I. INTRODUCTION

1. The resettlement plan (RP) for the Sambalpur-Titlagahr subproject was disclosed on ADB website in March 2011.1 The RP and its entitlement matrix were prepared based on the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) 2009 and in in accordance with the Indian Land Acquisition Act- 1894 (LAA-1894). This document shows the progress of the RP implementation and updates the legal framework and entitlement matrix (EM) for this specific subproject to reflect the changes related to the entry into force of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, (RFCTLAR Act-2013), effective since January 1st, 2014. While 4.45 out of 78.78 acres were acquired under the former Land Acquisition Act 1894, all the remaining private land required is being acquired under the RFCTLAR Act-2013.

2. The entitlement matrix has been updated in the following manner: (i) all entitlements related to titleholders have been updated to take into account the changes stipulated in the RFCTLAR Act- 2013 and corresponding Odisha state rules.2 LARR 2013 requirements for titleholders are represent financial values above the entitlements proposed in the original EM and therefore comply with SPS 2009; (ii) entitlements related to non-titleholders remain unchanged and follow those approved in the original entitlement matrix; (iii) entitlements related to vulnerable affected household have been revised to provide bridging measures required by both the RFCTLAR Act- 2013 and ADB’s Social Policy Statement (SPS) 2009.

II. RIGHT TO FAIR COMPENSATION AND TRANSPARENCY IN LAND ACQUISITION, REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT ACT (RFCTLAR), 2013

A. Description of the RFCTLAR Act-2013

3. The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013 (RFCTLAR Act-2013), provides for a transparent process and just and fair compensation to the affected families whose land is acquired or proposed to be acquired or are affected by such acquisition and provides for rehabilitation and resettlement of the affected families. The basic principle of the RFCTLAR Act-2013 is to ensure that the cumulative outcome of compulsory land acquisition should be such that, the affected persons become partners in development, leading to an improvement in the standard of living after acquisition. This act came into effect on January 01, 2014 and the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 stands repealed. The salient provisions of RFCTLAR Act-2013 are discussed below. The RFCTLAR Act-2013 applies to acquisition of land for a public purpose, as defined in the act. The act provides for consultation with and involvement of local self-government in undertaking a Social Impact Assessment (SIA). The SIA is reviewed by an Expert Group to assess if the potential benefits of the project outweigh the social cost and adverse social impacts. The expert group can recommend either for or against proceeding with the project. The appropriate government is not bound by the decision of the expert group and can decide otherwise.

4. The act prohibits acquisition of multi crop land for any project, however on exceptional cases allows acquisition of multi crop land, wherein the State specific threshold of acquiring such land is not exceeded and equivalent waste land is developed for agricultural purpose.

5. The competent authority while determining the market value of the land has to consider the higher value of the land arrived at by 3-methods of valuation, viz: (i) market value as per Indian Stamp Act, 1899 for the registration of sale deed or agreements to sell, in the area where land is situated; or (ii) average sale price for similar type of land, situated in the nearest village or nearest vicinity area, ascertained from the highest 50% of sale deeds of the preceding 3 years; or (iii) consented amount paid for PPPs or private companies. In case of rural areas, the market value of land so determined is multiplied by a factor of 2 (see Annex 1). A solatium of 100% is payable on the market value of land multiplied by the factor and all immovable properties or assets, trees and plants.

6. A Resettlement and Rehabilitation award detailing the entitlements to be provided as per the Second Schedule of Act is passed by the competent authority. Possession of land can be taken only after payment of compensation and rehabilitation and resettlement entitlements as detailed in Second Schedule and Third Schedule. The detail of amenities to be provided in a resettlement site is detailed in the Third Schedule.

B. Odisha Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition Rules, 2016:

7. Government of Odisha has adopted the RFCTLAR Act-2013 by gazette notification in the name of the Odisha Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition Rules, 2016. This rules is followed for any land acquisition proposed for public purpose by any requiring body within the State. The Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Government of Odisha, has set up the State SIA (Social Impact Assessment) Unit at Nabakrushna Choudhry Center for Development Study (NCDS) for conducting Social Impact Assessment studies as per the provisions under the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013. All the land acquisition proposed after effectiveness of the RFCTLAR Act-2013 is being carried out as per the procedure set forth in the notified State rules (see Annex 2).

C. ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009

8. The objectives of ADB's Safeguards Policy Statement (SPS) 20093 with regard to involuntary resettlement are: (i) to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; (ii) to minimize involuntary resettlement (IR) by exploring project and design alternatives; (iii) to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre- project levels; and (iv) to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. ADB's SPS (2009) covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods).

9. The three important elements of ADB’s SPS (2009) are: (i) compensation at replacement cost for lost assets, livelihood, and income prior to displacement; (ii) assistance for relocation, including provision of relocation sites with appropriate facilities and services; and (iii) assistance for rehabilitation to enhance or at least restore the livelihood to all displaced persons relative to pre-project levels and to improve the standard of living of displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

III. COMPARISON OF IR POLICIES OF THE GOVERNMENT WITH ADB POLICY

10. Overall, the RFCTLAR Act-2013 now bridges the gaps between the GoI policy and ADB's SPS, 2009. In particular, the Act requires social impact assessments for projects involving land acquisition, although it sets a minimum threshold of people affected for this provision to apply, while this is not required in the SPS. The Act also expands compensation coverage by a solatium of 100 percent of all compensation amounts. Overall, the RFCTLARR Act-2013 brings the value of compensations for land and structures higher than replacement cost, which is the principle on which compensations are calculated under the SPS. The Act furthermore is in line with ADB requirement that compensation be paid prior to project taking possession of any land.

11. The outstanding differences between the government and ADB policy is whether nontitle holders qualify for compensations. The Act states that “families whose livelihood is primarily dependent on land” are entitled to the provisions listed in Schedule 2, but leaves the definition of who these people are to the state government. Moreover, the RFCTLAR Act-2013 does not have special provisions for vulnerable households as defined by SPS, but only for scheduled castes and scheduled tribes in Scheduled Areas. Special measures for vulnerable households have been included in the entitlement matrix.

IV. PROGRESS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SAMBALPUR-TITLAGAHR RESETTLEMENT PLAN

A. General Progress

12. As per the original 2011 RP, the land acquisition requirement for the subproject was 95.54 acres of private land and the initial surveys identified 388 households including 26 non-titleholders to be affected, representing a total of 3547 persons. The latest survey indicates a reduction of land requirements to 78.78 acres of private land. The revised number of affected persons are 1327 households, among whom 99% are titleholders. The 2011 estimates versus the latest survey findings are presented in Table 1 below:

Table 1: Estimated number of affected households 2011 RP Latest survey (SIA) Subproject Name Title- Nontitle- Total Title- Nontitle- Total holder holder 2011 holder holder 2017 *Sambalpur-Titlagarh 377 26 403 1313 14 1327 *The numbers may change as payments in Sambalpur-Titlagarh is ongoing.

13. The latest survey indicate that the land requirement was revised to 142.781 acres, including 78.748 acres of private land. The above figure also includes 1.509 Acre of freshly added land in Sambalpur district and 0.97 in . The details are presented in the Table 2 below.

14. The land acquisition requirement for the subproject was minimized from the original proposal due to realignments of some sections and readjustments of alignment with maximum utilization of the existing Right of Way (RoW). However, the impacts on titleholder households has increased due to the division of land among heirs and revision of land records. A total of 1313 titleholder households were identified.

15. During the initial stage of subproject implementation, land acquisition requirement was placed as per the prevailing Land Acquisition Act 1894. However, due to slow progress of land acquisition under the LAA-1894 most of the processes were lapsed after enactment of RFCTLAR Act-2013 and its effectiveness from 1st January 2014.

B. Progress of payment of Titleholders

16. The introduction of the RFCTLAR Act-2013 contributed to a significant delay in the land acquisition process. The Odisha Revenue and Disaster Management had to draft the rules to implement the RFCTLAR Act-2013, which were only approved in 2016. It also had to set up the Social Impact Assessment (SIA) Unit of the Government of Odisha vide Letter No.759/NCDS dated: 12.08.2015, which empaneled the Council of Analytical Tribal Studies (COATS) and Nabakrishna Choudhury Centre for Development Studies (NCDS) as organizations with expertise and competency for undertaking the SIAs.

17. The present Social Impact Assessment (SIA) Study of Land Acquisition for construction of Sambalpur – Titilagarh Doubling Railway Link Project in Bolangir District was assigned to COATS by the State SIA Unit, Nabakrishna Choudhury Centre for Development Studies (NCDS), on 1st April, 2016.

18. The Odisha Revenue and Disaster Management issued a notification on 07/02/2014 clarifying all LA proceedings initiated under the LA act 1894 in which 4(1) notification and 6(1) declaration have been issued and payment have started would follow the the LAA-1894. All LA proceedings initiated under the LA act 1894 in which 4(1) notification and 6(1) have been issued but award not been paid would be exempt of the social impact assessment requirement but all entitlements and compensations as determined by the new land act would apply.

19. Under Sambalpur district 4.450 Acres of land has been acquired in 2013 and 2014 under the LAA-1894. A total of 31 households have been paid an amount of INR 2,253,766. The review of the resettlement process by ADB identified that these households have not received resettlement benefits as per the RP. This issue has been raised with RVNL and is part of the corrective action plan of the resettlement due diligence report disclosed on ADB website.4 RVNL is in the process of preparing the microplan to ensure resettlement benefits are paid according to the original approved entitlement matrix.

20. The rest of the private land (95%) is being acquired as per the RFCTLAR Act-2013. SIAs related to the Sambalpur – Titilagarh subproject were assigned to COATS and Nabakrishna Choudhury Centre for Development Studies (NCDS) on 1st April, 2016. The social impact assessments for all the districts as required under the new act have been completed. Only the district of Sonepur was exempted from conducting a social impact assessment as the LA proceedings had initiated under the former land act. A total of INR 184,077,720 has been paid to

VI. IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS

25. An NGO (Sugam International) was hired by RVNL to support RP implementation activates. The NGO supported the RVNL in preparation of micro-plan and assisted in payment to the nontitle holders only. Since the RFCTLAR Act-2013 requires all land acquisition and resettlement process to be completed by the DC only, RVNL terminated the services of NGO in August-2016 after completion of NTH payments in the subproject. RVNL agreed to hire individual consultants to monitor the land acquisition and resettlement process conducted by the DCs and finalize the payment of resettlement benefits of the 31 households paid under the former land act.

26. For land acquisition purpose, the Government of Odisha has designated a Special Land Acquisition Officer (SLAO) for this subproject. The SLAO is responsible for payment of compensation and assistance as per the RFCTLAR Act-2013. An Additional Collector is acting as Administrator for Rehabilitation and Resettlement who is responsible for formulation of R&R scheme. VII. NEW GRIEVANCE REDRESS SYSTEM

27. A Grievance Redress Committee (GRC) at each district level have been formed to deal 11 with the disputes and DPs’ grievances and facilitate timely implementation of the project. The GRC a headed by the District Collector (DC; or District Magistrate) or a representative from the Collector’s office; the other members of the GRC will include the ARS from the project implementation unit’s office, representatives of DPs, particularly of vulnerable DPs (including tribals), local government representatives, NGOs, at least one representative of project-affected women in each community and one representative of tribes affected by the project, if any, and other interest groups. Other than disputes relating to ownership rights under the court of law, four GRCs will be formed in the Sambalpur-Titlagarh subproject area, as there are four districts involved: Sambalpur, Bargarh, Sonpur and Balangir. GRC will review grievances involving all resettlement benefits, compensation, and other assistance. In addition, GRC will review tribal concerns, if any, and grievances and provide appropriate relief and assistance. The GRC will meet regularly (at least twice a month) on a fixed date. The Committee will look into DPs’ grievances and will assign the responsibilities for implementing Committee decisions. Claims will be reviewed and resolved within 15 days from the date of submission to the Committee.
