1.2 Progress of Due Diligence Report preparation

8. The preparation of Due Diligence Report (DDR) for sub-projects identified under Tranche 3 (70%) started in April 2016. Till Dec 2019, the total identified sub-projects were 42. Out of which 12 were dropped and preparation of DDR for one sub-project i.e. PB/IDIPT/T3/01/16- State Wide Tourism Interpretation signages in Eastern and Western Circuit–Publications and signages is underway. The detailed status of preparation of due diligence report is attached as Appendix 1. 2 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT 9. The purpose of Social Monitoring Report basically looked into the physical as well as financial progress of sub-projects and analysed the compliance with the approved Resettlement Framework, Involuntary Resettlement (IR) and SPS (2009) of ADB. 10. The ADB Public Communications Policy (PCP 2011) refers to the Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS 2009) with respect to information disclosure related to project safeguard documentation which states that ADB shall post on its website the safeguard documents submitted by the borrower and/or client. These safeguard documents include Resettlement & Indigenous Peoples Plan (RP & IPP), and the social safeguard and environmental monitoring reports. To comply with the PCP of ADB, the PHTPB shall submit semi-annual monitoring report periodically over the total implementation period of the project, covering Environment, Resettlement and Social Safeguard issues. This also has been spelled out in the project document & loan covenant of IDIPT that the borrower/client shall submit the reports to ADB. 11. IDIPT has been set up by Government of Punjab to oversee the implementation and monitoring of various sub projects in the project towns Based on the initial assessment, all the Sub projects under tranche-3 have been classified as Category ‘C’. However, subproject namely ‘Beautification works near Gurudwara Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Ji’ which is likely to cause resettlement impacts on non-titled affected persons (temporarily disruption of livelihood) has been categorized as ‘B’ for involuntary resettlement. During the monitoring period and consultation with local vendors, it was confirmed that there is no physical or economic displacement due to this subproject. All land required for Tranche 3 subprojects are owned by the State Government/implementing agencies. Because there are no involuntary resettlement impacts for Tranche 3 subprojects, no resettlement plan for Tranche 3 has been prepared. However, in view of the temporary impact on mobile vendors, short RP was prepared and approved by ADB. This report covers Social Monitoring, addressing all the issues related with social safeguards, with reference to the progress achieved and current status. 12. This report covers the 3rd and 4th quarter of the implementation program till December 2019 and Ninth Semi Annual Progress Report. As per the reporting schedule of Resettlement Framework bi-annual Social Monitoring Reports are to be submitted to ADB. Accordingly, the SMR has been prepared and covers the period from July to December 2019. It is confirmed that, in all the subprojects which are covered in this report, there are no indigenous people (IP), no private land acquisition required for the proposed interventions. 3 SOCIAL SAFEGUARD CATEGORIZATION

Social Monitoring Report (SMR)- July to Dec 2019 9

Infrastructure Development Investment Program Punjab Heritage and Tourism for Tourism-Punjab Promotion Board

13. Prior to civil works implementation, all the subprojects selected for construction or development to be Screened and Classified using ADB's classification system are as follows: 14. The PHTPB projects are classified as category C for involuntary resettlement and category C for Indigenous Peoples in considerations of the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement. However, none of the Subprojects selected for implementation falls into Category B since these are likely to have no adverse Involuntary Resettlement (IR) impacts. Only one subproject namely ‘Beautification works near Gurudwara Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Ji’ which is likely to cause some resettlement impact has been categorised into B category. . Most land parcels/Interventions are owned by local governments; however, some subprojects, if require any minor land acquisition and involuntary resettlement involving either physical or economic displacement, or temporary restrictions to land use that will be duly complied with the IR and SPS of ADB.  Category- A: Subprojects proposed for construction or development, will fall under this category, if, it caused a significant involuntary resettlement impacts with a physical displacement of 200 or more persons from their residences, or 200 or more persons lose 10% or more of their productive or income generating assets, or more persons or 200 or more persons experience a combination of both.  Category- B: Any proposed subproject that includes involuntary resettlement impacts but are not deemed significant considering loss of shelter/houses or productive or income generating assets will be considered for category B.  Category- C: A proposed subproject that has no involuntary resettlement impact. 15. Based on the above assessment the Tranche-3 sub-projects were categorized as “C” for Involuntary Resettlement (IR) as well as Indigenous People Development as per ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS-2009). Details are attached as Appendix 2 & Appendix 3. In addition to this social and environment safeguard checklist is also provided in supported of categorisation form. 4 POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK 16. The resettlement principles adopted for this project recognize ‘The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, 2007, State Government Policies, and the relevant Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) policies and operations manuals, in particular the Safeguard Policy Statement (2009), and Operations Manual F1 (2010). 5 DESCRIPTION OF SUB-PROJECT 17. The Infrastructure Development Investment Programme for Tourism- Punjab, covers state- wide circuit comprises a western component that extends from Amritsar to Gurdaspur, and an eastern component that extends from Patiala through Chandigarh to Rupnagar (Ropar) on the state border with Himachal Pradesh. These two circuits and the connecting Moghul Route link the most of the major rivers and wetlands, the major cultural heritage sites, as well as a significant proportion of rural village communities and their cultural heritage.

e) Implementing civil works and related activities; f) Reporting to PMU; g) Preparing regular progress reports for the SLEC, the executing agency and ADB through PMU; h) Supervising construction, conducting quality control, approving progress payments to contractors; and i) Maintaining records and accounts on an up-to-date basis and making these available to ADB, its missions, or auditors for inspection. 8 GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL MECHANISM 23. It would be pertinent here to refer the Asian Development Bank’s policy, which requires proper mechanisms for resolution of disputes that may arise from any aspect of the project and development process. The mechanisms should be “affordable and accessible,” and third parties independent of the implementers should be available at the appropriate point in the process. The grievance procedure needs to be simple, administered in the first instance at the local project level to facilitate access, flexibility and open to various proofs taking into account the need for speedy, just and fair resolution of any grievances. 24. The summary of existing approach and methodology for any grievances (if any) and tentative duration of its redressal are as under:

The work of smart city mission is happening along the circular road including this project stretch from Khazana gate to Sultan wind gate. 44. Due to laying of the water pipelines, electricity lines/poles etc by smart city mission, it is impacting all the vendors along with the PAPs approved in this RP also. It has been consulted with the 31 PAPs that, to avoid any confusion, nuisances and any political issue in that area, the assistance payment has been delayed. Disbursement will be done once the area where they are existed will be disturbed by the project. Presently the project work is in progress where sections are vacant. The implementation of RP will be done prior to disturbance to any PAPs.

55. In addition to this, IDIPT took initiatives to disclose all safeguard related documents such as sub- project appraisals (SARs), due diligence reports, and social monitoring reports. IDIPT is still in process to up- load sub-project appraisals (SARs) in IDIPT website. 17 OTHER SOCIAL ISSUES 56. The project is expected to generate employment opportunities for local communities’ semi-skilled and unskilled during the construction, operation & maintenance phase. EA/IA had regular instructions during construction and has been conducted information and education campaigns on the risks of HIV/AIDS and human trafficking, targeting construction workers at campsites time to time (Appendix-6). 57. Also, EA/IA has instructed time to time to the contractors to ensure the following actions during civil works (i) not to employ or use children for labour; (ii) to disseminate information at worksites on risks of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV/AIDS as part of health and safety measures for those employed during construction; and (iii) to follow and implement legally mandated provisions on labour (including equal pay for equal work), health, safety, sanitation, and working conditions. 58. Though infrastructure development projects emphasizes more on engineering aspects like technical and economic viability of the project but in ADB’s assisted project, social responsibility becomes important. Prevention and control of HIV/AIDS transmission is one of the important social responsibility. Hence prevention and control of transmission of STDs & HIV/AIDS has become important social responsibility of IDIPT projects. In order to make the people aware about the diseases, CDO with the help of Contractors conducted an awareness campaign on HIV/AIDS awareness & prevention during site visits and public consultations. Crèche facility at construction sites: 59. Crèche facility was available in early project stages and after completion of major projects, this facility has been stopped. While interacted with contractors and women labourers it’s revealed that now there are no women is engaged who have any infant or small kids with them. 18 SUMMARY OF MONITORING RESULTS AND KEY FINDINGS 60. In order to identify the IR Impacts, if any, during the project implementation, site visits and consultative inspections in the project areas have been monitored by the PIU/PMU and it has been confirmed that the implementation of the above-mentioned projects would not have any resettlement impact. Site visits were being conducted on regular basis to observe the site conditions, engagement of female workers and basic facilities (lodging, drinking water, sanitation etc.) are available for them at the site.

The sub-project sites have been selected on public/government land and no private land acquisition is triggered. During the constructions, efforts are being taken by PIU/PMU to minimise or avoid social impacts. The key observations of the monitoring on the social safeguards in general and implementation of ADB’s SPS 2009 in particular are summarised as follows:  There are total 31 DPs (Squatter/Encroachment) are being impacted due to Beautification Works near Gurudwara Baba Deep Singh Ji at Amritsar Package No (PB/IDIPT/T3/09/38) under Tranche-3 for improvements under IDIPT. However, to mitigate the temporary disturbance the RP has been prepared and approved. Implementation of the same is yet to start.

 The NoC’s and undertaking have been obtained regarding the façade work and not adversely affect their business and income.  Institutional arrangements followed the guidelines of Resettlement Framework approved for IDIPT. However, at the PMU and PIU level the proposed expertise is not positioned and lacking the minimum requirement of experts. The Project Director has given additional charge to Ms. Vidushi Sharma, Environment Safeguard Specialist to look after the works of Social Safeguard Specialist on 26th May 2017 and Ms. Sumati Bhaskar, GS-PIU Ropar was assigned with additional charge of Community Development Specialist on 07th May 2019.  During the monitoring period community consultations were organised by PIU Ropar and PIU Amritsar.

The social monitoring report concludes that the project does not involve any outstanding social safeguard issues and project implementation is progressing in the right direction. All the social safeguards are being implemented as per the approved Resettlement Framework and SPS (2009) guidelines.
