EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. This Resettlement Plan(RP has been prepared for the Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu district under the Earthquake Emergency Assistance Project (EEAP). The major objective of the EEAP is to restore and reestablish the use of earthquake damaged infrastructures within existing facilities and Corridor-of-Impact (CoI) with minimal or no land acquisition. This RP is prepared following Resettlement Framework (RF) of EEAP and in accordance with Government of Nepal Land Acquisition Act 2034, The Reconstruction Related Act 2072 and its Working Procedures 2072, and ADB Safeguard Policy Statement 2009.

2. The objectives of the RP are to ensure adequate safeguard measures and appropriate entitlements are provided to affected persons wherever involuntary resettlement is observed. The RP explains process adopted for the preparation of the resettlement plan impact due to construction of road, mitigation measures and implementation arrangement.

3. The RF will guide the preparation of resettlement plans during the project implementation, according to which EEAP subprojects will avoid or minimize land acquisition and involuntary resettlement wherever possible. In unavoidable situation, the project will ensure the AP‗s rights and they will receive appropriate assistance. 4. APs have been informed and consulted about the involuntary resettlement during the survey of subproject. Special attention has been paid to ensure that the vulnerable groups and the women-headed households receive appropriate assistance. The national laws, regulation, resettlement framework of EEAP and ADB’s resettlement safeguard policy have been followed during the planning and preparation of Resettlement Plan. During the survey consultations, none of household has shown interest to donate their land except the area which is occupied by existing road. Thus, only new affected area will be compensated at replacement cost. Hence, safeguard issues like land loss and involuntary resettlement have been addressed in RP and APs will not be affected by new cutting area of the road regarding their daily livelihood, local identity and physical displacement.

5. The total length of the road subproject is 10.046 km starting at Saalinadi Chowk, Ward no 11 of Shankharpur Municipality (previously Saalkha VDC) of Kathmandu and ends at Ward no 8 of BaluwapatiDeupur VDC (previously Naaldum VDC) of Kavre district passing through Sankhu, Palubari, Kattike and Nagarkot settlements. The initial 3.26 km road is already 10 m wide and partially blacktopped which avoids further land acquisition for the subproject. Similarly, the last 0.220 km section affects the property Hotel Country Villa and road improvement will be done in its existing road width. This last section of the subproject is in good condition maintained by the private company. Therefore, land acquisition and involuntary resettlement is expected between Ch 3+260 and Ch 9+780 where the road width is only 5 m.

6. The road subproject has decided to acquire land within 10 m Right of Way (CoI), 5 m on either side from the center line to be upgraded into all-weather blacktopped standard of District Core Road Network. In total, the road required 10.046 ha of land to upgrade the road in which total of 5.005 ha and 2.955 ha land has been occupied by the existing and new cutting respectively. There are total 457 land plots to be acquired in the name of road

III | P a g e

subproject in which 334 land plots come under the initial 3.260 km and 10 land plots are in the last 0.220 km section which does not require new cutting area. Thus, only 113 plots needs to be acquired by the subproject in which majority are privately owned. There are 26 land plots lacking official landownership. These plots has no structures, standing crops or trees. A public notice will be published and informed among the local people for the review and claim of these land plots in consultation with the LRO and DLPIU. However, this RP incorporates the deed transfer process of all 457 land plots already acquired and to be acquired by the road subproject.

7. The road affects 13 structures belonging to 11 owners including one public building. The affected structures are one residential house, three residential plus commercial buildings, eight CGI huts (taharas), two of which operate commercial purpose and one community building. The 8 huts are CGI roofed-walled temporary structures were built as temporary residences after the devastating earthquake of April 25, 2015. The one community building belongs to the Bishamvara Multipurpose Cooperative Ltd in which 48 among the total members are affected by the subproject.

8. A census socio-economic and loss assessment survey of the project affected peoples between Ch 3+260 and Ch 9+780 was carried out to document complete socio-economic analysis as well as loss assessment. Altogether, 55 households including 23 non- interviewed HHs occupy in the 10 m Right of Way. Out of total 55 HHs, 32HHs of 140 persons were available for socio-economic survey. Of the total households,6 households belong to Brahamin/Chhetri, 1 Dalit and 25Janjatis.

9. In an average the interviewed families have 0.41 ha of land which will reduce to 0.38 ha after subproject intervention. The interviewed families have both agricultural and non- agricultural source of income in which the road will negatively affect the agriculture income for temporary period. The average agricultural income of the 32 affected families is NRs 74218.75/ annually in the current situation which will decrease to NRs 69140.24/ in a year after the project intervention. This shows they will loss NRs 5078.51/ in average in a year after the loss of their land to the sub-project. Similarly, the average food sufficiency of the APs from their own agriculture production is 8.09 months, which will slightly decrease to 7.65 months following the implementation of subproject. However, the APs major income source is the non-agricultural sector which remains unaffected by the sub-project. The APs are involved in small business activities, like shop and tourism sector. The other non- agricultural incomes of the interviewed HHs are remittance, private and government services and wage labor. The APs will be incorporated in Income Restoration and Rehabilitation Training program under RP.

10. The data analysis of the APs shows that there are 10 interviewed households which lose more than 5 percent of their total land holding but no HH is found below district poverty level and all households have additional source of income besides agriculture income. All the project affected persons to be affected from road Right of Way (10 m) have requested to be compensated in cash. The APs losing residential buildings have another house for temporary shifting making them less vulnerable in terms of resettlement and all the

IV | P a g e

residential structure owners have either enough space in the same plot or other plot nearby beyond CoI of the road in order to rebuild their house. Also, the earthquake affected families, living in the temporary sheds will be resettled in the land beyond the CoI enabling them to continue with their business (tea-shops, grocery shops). The Bishamvara Multipurpose Cooperative building and one affected family, Mr. Bhola Damai whose house is built in public land will be resettled in the same public plot beyond CoI. Hence, there is no need to find resettlement land area for the APs.

11. Although there are indigenous APs land plots along the road alignments, there are no significant cultural resources noted over the land that they are losing for the subproject. Neither the subproject intervention has any disturbances or impact on the customary rights of these indigenous populations. Hence, the subproject intervention does not affect the culture or harm the identity of the indigenous people along the alignment. So no adverse impact has been assessed among indigenous households due to project intervention. The interviewed 25 indigenous APs have same level of access to the education, health and government facilities and market networks compared to the other caste groups. Thus it is expected that they have equal social status to enjoy the same level of benefits from this subproject implementation in future. This road will provide better access to market, education institutions, and Health center and government service offices. In addition, it is also a potential heritage route to religious places of Sankhu and Bajrayogini as well as famous tourist route to Nagarkot which will definitely help the families depending upon the tourism business.

12. A well-defined grievance redress and resolution mechanism has been in place to resolve grievances and complaints in a timely and satisfactory manner. District Level Project Implementation Unit (DLPIU) is playing key role to address all kinds of grievances of project affected people. All affected HHs are oriented and made fully aware of their rights, and the detailed grievance redress procedures have been publicized through an effective public information campaign. First Level of GRM has initiated its work at field effectively.

13. The affected structures and land compensation rate has been proposed on the government rate of respective district, Kathmandu and Kavre District. The proposed compensation rate has been discussed in the community meeting held in Sankhu, where no major objection has been shown by the APs. The total compensatory amount of the affected land plots is NRs 93,681868.90/. Since, no family showed interest in land donation, all land plots have been proposed for compensation. Among the 12 affected structures, only four residential buildings and one public building will be fully compensated for the physical structure. The eight CGI huts which are also the earthquake victim will receive fixed amount of compensation to rebuild their home from Nepal Reconstruction Authority (NRA), thus compensation of their physical structure will not be included in this RP but their relocation and transportation cost is included. The compensation amount of five physical structures including one public building is NRs 7065844.96/ and the relocation allowance of all 13 structures is NRs 310500.00/

14. During the socioeconomic survey, 32 interviewed HHs have expressed their interest to be the part of the training and benefit from entrepreneurial skills. Among 22 HHs proposed for the training, priority will be accorded to Dalits, Janajatis and women HH-heads. Income restoration program (IRP) will be designed for one person per family in the age group 16-45. Different categories of trainings are being finalized in the district and the tentative cost of the training program is NRs 1521959.44.

15. The total cost estimated for implementation of this RP is NRs 122.99 million in which NRs 101.05 million is direct compensation amount. The other RP expense title includes deed transfer assistance amount, training amount for APs and 20 percent contingency of the total cost for any unseen expenses during implementation period.

16. The National Reconstruction Authority (NRA) is the executing agency of the project. The Central Level Project implementation Unit (CLPIU) under Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development (MOFALD) supported by Central Implementation Support Consultant (CISC) provides overall guide and monitoring of the project activities at central level. District Level Project Implementation Unit (DLPIU) supported by District Level Implementation Support Consultant (DISC) will be responsible to implement overall activities at district.

Resettlement Plan of Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu

1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

1. This Resettlement Plan(RP) has been prepared for the Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu district under the Earthquake Emergency Assistance Project (EEAP). The major objective of the EEAP is to restore and reestablish use of earthquake damaged infrastructures within existing facilities and Corridor-of-Impact (CoI) with minimal or no land acquisition. This RP is prepared following Resettlement Framework (RF) of EEAP and in accordance with Government of Nepal Land Acquisition Act 2034, The Reconstruction Related Act 2072 and its Working Procedures 2072, and ADB Safeguard Policy Statement 2009.

4. The National Reconstruction Authority (NRA) is the executing agency of the project. The Central Level Project implementation Unit (CLPIU) under Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development (MOFALD) supported by Central Implementation Support Consultant (CISC) provides overall guide and monitoring of the project activities at central level. District Level Project Implementation Unit (DLPIU) supported by District Level Implementation Support Consultant (DISC) will be responsible to implement overall activities at district.

5. The total length of the Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot road is 10.046 km in which initial 3.26km with 10 m road width has already been gravelled and partially blacktopped. The road alignment starts from Ward no 11 of Shankharpur Municipality (previously Saalka VDC, Ward 6), Kathmandu and it ends at Ward no 8 of Baluwapati Deupur VDC (previously Naaldum VDC, Ward 8) of Kavre district. Since the road lies at north-east part of the Kathmandu district, it criss-crosses core city areas of Kathmandu Metropolitan City as well as different strategic road networks. The major settlements along the subproject are Sankhu, Palubari, Kattike and Nagarkot. 6. The subproject does not have to acquire any land plots or structures in the first 3.26 km section because of the 10 m existing road width. Similarly, the last 0.220 km section of the alignment affects the property of big companies namely ISME Housing Ltd., Hotel Country Villa, Shree Avatar Resort. This last section of the subproject is comparatively in better condition maintained by these companies, thus no widening will be done but upgrading work will be conducted using the existing width. However, the average existing width of the remaining road section is 5 m which requires land acquisition under both public and private ownership. 7. The existing road will be upgraded into all-weather black-topped road having, 20 m CoI (10 m on either side of centreline) and 6.25 m roadway including shoulder width,

Resettlement Plan of Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu

formation width and drain. The Carriageway Width of the road will be maintained at 3.75 m and Shoulder Width at 0.75 m on either side. The technical design report states that the design speed for hill terrain is maximum 25 km/hr and 20 km/hr minimum. Surface run-off line drain is proposed throughout the road alignment with cross drainages at frequent interval considering the safe discharge of the drainage outlets in natural gullies. This improved road will provide easy and smooth road access to the settlement along the subproject alignment especially for the dairy farmers. This subproject also serves the 1female population in and outside the community as it links with the popular religious site, Sali Nadi and popular tourist destination, Nagarkot. 8. The project team decided to consider the present road alignment unanimously as there are no alternative options for the roads under EEAP. The roads undertaken under EEAP are existing road alignment to be constructed with ―build better back‖ idea after the earthquake devastating effect. Thus, no alternatives alignments had to be considered by the technical team.

1.1 Scope of Land Acquisition

9. The road subproject requires 10.046 ha of land for its implementation. Out of total required land, 7.960 ha of land are under private ownership in which 5.005 ha is already occupied by the existing road. Thus, 2.955 ha of new private land need to be acquired as new cutting area. In real ground, none of the land plots or structures needs to be acquired by this subproject in the initial 3.26 km and last 0.220 km as these sections will be upgraded in the existing width. Thus, the scope of land acquisition in this road subproject is within Ch 3+260 and Ch 9+780. Table 1 presents the detail of affected land to be acquired for the subproject.

10. Cadastral survey team was mobilized after the detailed design of the subproject. According to the cadastral survey report, there are total 457 land plots to be acquired by the subproject. Among the total land plots, 334 land plots come under the initial 3.260 km and 10 land plots is in the last 0.220 km road which does not require new cutting area. Thus, only 113 land plots need to be acquired by the proposed road subproject. Among the 113 plots, majority belongs to private ownership, 3 plots belong to Shree Bisamvara Hanuman Ganesh Guthi and 4 plots belong to different private companies (Refer Table 2).

1 The Sali Nadi (river) is a holy river where Hindu women take bath for a month during December-January every year, known as Swastani Brata. 2 Currently, 5.005 ha land is being occupied by the existing road.

11. There are 26 plots lacking official landownership. These plots have their plot numbers but land owners are not recorded in the land revenue office. The land holders of these land plots were not identified though the LRO along with surveyor made field verification, searched in the field book and rigorously checked the documents at LRO office. These unidentified plots have no structures, standing crops or trees. A public notice will be published and informed among the local people for the review and claim of these land plots in consultation with the LRO as soon as DLPIU will be formed. In addition, LRO office came up with the decision that during the land acquisition process under land acquisition act if any individuals out of the 26 plots come up with the receipt of land revenue payment, the land will be registered in their names and will be provided due compensation or will be transferred under public land. However, there will be no time limit for claiming ownership to those plots.

12. Although, the initial 334 land plots are already acquired by the subproject alignment, deed transfer of these plots is not conducted. Similarly, the land plots of last 0.220 km also require deed transfer of the existing road width although new cutting land area is not experienced. This RP incorporates the deed transfer process of all 457 land plots already acquired and to be acquired by the road subproject.

13. It is noted from the field survey that 42 families belonging to janajati category lose land in the subproject. However, it is learnt that they have no significant cultural resources over the land that they are losing for the subproject. Neither the subproject intervention has any disturbances or impact on the customary rights of these indigenous populations (economic impact is discussed in next chapter). Hence, the subproject intervention does not affect the culture or harm the identity of the janajati people along the alignment.

14. The average land holding of affected households is 0.41 ha which will reduce to0.38 ha after land acquisition of the subproject. Out of32 interviewed affected households, 10households lose more than 5 percent of total land holding. In average, these

3 | P a g e

households lose 0.001 ha. Table 3 summarizes extent of land loss in the road subproject.

1.2 Losses of Structures 15. Apart from land loss, there will be loss of structures within the COI. Altogether 13 structures belonging to 11 owners will be affected by the road subproject including one public building. The affected structures are one residential house, three residential plus commercial buildings, eight CGI huts (taharas) and one community building. The 8 huts are CGI roofed-walled temporary structures were built as temporary residences after the devastating earthquake of April 25, 2015. The affected structures are built in their own private land; however the community building, two residences and one hut is built in public land. The one community building belongs to the Bishamvara Multipurpose Cooperative Ltd. The Cooperative is 19 years old institution that was registered in Jan 26, 1997.Since then, the organization has been serving the community for two main purpose, 1) dairy collection from the members and connect to the market, ii) saving and credit facility in the community. The organization has total 68 members of which 42 are the affected families from the subproject. Table 4 presents a brief account of affected structures (details have been tabulated in Appendix IV).

16. The eight huts which are also the earthquake victim will receive fixed amount of compensation to rebuild their home from Nepal Reconstruction Authority (NRA), thus compensation of these physical structure will not be included in this RP but their relocation and transportation cost is included. However, the other four residential structures will be paid full compensation for their physical loss and relocation cost. Although these residential structures are partially affected by the subproject, the structures are paid full compensation as most of these structures are made of mud- mortar and are already cracked by earthquake. Thus, even slight disturbances in the physical structure may pull down the whole structure. Hence, RP proposes full compensation of the partially affected residential structures 17. All the private structures affected by the subproject alignment belong to janajati people except one which belongs to dalit family. Although the janajati and dalit families are being physically displaced by the subproject, it is learnt that they have another house for temporary shifting making them less vulnerable in terms of resettlement. Similarly, all the residential structure owners have either enough space in the same plot or other plot nearby beyond CoI of the road in order to rebuild their house. Also, the earthquake affected families, living in the temporary sheds will be resettled in the land beyond the CoI enabling them to continue with their business (tea-shops, grocery shops). The Bishamvara Multipurpose Cooperative building and one affected family, Mr. Bhola Damai whose house is built in public land will be resettled in the same public plot beyond CoI

2. SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE OF THE AFFECTED HOUSEHOLDS

18. A detailed socio-economic survey was conducted to investigate affected households’ income, food sufficiency, livelihood options, loss of land, structures, trees and other assets. The affected families are included only within the families from Ch 3+260 until Ch 9+780. Beyond these chainage, the road will be left as it is and no additional new cutting area is acquired. The total affected households are 55; socio-economic survey was carried for 32(58.18%) households’ having140 populations. Out of total APs, 6 HHs are from Brahmin/Chettri, 1 HH from Dalit and 25 HHs are from Janjati. There are 6 women- headed HHs in the subproject area. The Table 5provides summary of the affected households.

19. The contribution of agricultural income and livelihood were assessed by measuring food sufficiency from agro-products. The survey showed that the livelihood option of the affected families is not land based but from non-agriculture sector. The major source of income is remittances, hotel, tourism, tea shops business and job in different institution. Similarly, the 25 interviewed indigenous families income source is also based on non- agriculture and income from land is a negligible share in the total income.

20. Table 7 gives food sufficiency in months for affected households and relates it to poverty levels. The average food sufficiency month of the APs is 8.09 months per year. In terms of food security, data reveals that 1 HH have <3 months, 8 HHs have 3-6 months, 11 HHs have 6-9 months, and 8 HHs have 9-12 HHs and 4HHs have >12 months of food sufficiency. The food supply during the deficit period is covered through income from non-agricultural sectors.

21. The data analysis of the APs shows that there are 10 interviewed households which lose more than 5 percent of their total land holding. However, there is no interviewed HH that falls below district poverty level before or after the subproject intervention. Similarly, no janajati family falls below poverty line. However, as described in paragraph 13, livelihood source of these families do not depend upon the land but on non-land sources which will be benefitted by the subproject intervention. Thus the subproject does not have significant impact on the janajati populations’ economic status.

22. The 25 janajati APs have same level of access to the education, health and government facilities and market networks compared to the other caste groups. Thus it is expected

7 | P a g e

Resettlement Plan of Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu

that they have equal social status to enjoy the same level of benefits from this subproject implementation in future. This road will provide better access to market, education institutions, and Health center and government service offices. In addition, it is also a potential heritage route to religious places of Sankhu and Bajrayogini as well as famous tourist route to Nagarkot which will definitely help the families depending upon the tourism business.

23. The subproject has no families that fall below poverty line, before or after the project implementation, no landless families, no elderly or single-women and children families and neither disable families that can be categorized under vulnerable group. There are 6 female headed families but are stands on equal status with other groups; economically and socially. However there is one non-titled family whose residence is being affected by the subproject, but will not be avoided from any benefits or titles from this subproject. This particular family will also be prioritized for benefit schemes like income restoration program in the subproject.

3. INFORMATION DISSEMINATION, CONSULTATION, PARTICIPATION, DISCLOSURE 24. The road subproject organized one public consultation meeting with APs, and with the other stakeholders along the road subproject area. They were provided information on ADB Policy on Involuntary resettlement, compensation and entitlement, RF of the EEAP. Until RP preparation no complaints were received from affected people. But the interviewed families expressed. The details of consultation have been presented in the Appendix V.

25. The community meeting and interviews were carried out in VDCs with the owners of land and structures for upgrading of the road.Consultants with other stakeholder facilitated the information campaign during, cadastral and household listing and socio-economic and loss assessment survey of the households. The communities were explained about:

1. Relevant of the road subproject scope and schedules, 2. RP and various degrees of project impact, 3. About land acquisition, donation, compensation and other entitlements schemes, 4. About Grievance redress mechanism , and 5. Special consideration and assistance of all vulnerable groups

26. DLPIU will play lead role to publish notice of affected land as per the land acquisition act 2072 NRA with support of CISC and other public consultation program for RP implementation is conducted by DISC with close consultation of DLPIU. In addition, project affected people has already been informed about overall EEAP project norms, rules and regulations during HHs survey.

4. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

27. The objective the grievance redress mechanism (GRM) is to resolve complaints as quickly as possible and at the local level through a process of conciliation; and, if that is not possible, to provide clear and transparent procedures for appeal. A well-defined grievance redress and resolution mechanism is guided by the RF which will be fully informed and made aware of the rights to the APs. The grievance redress process includes four levels which is shown in the figure.

a. First level of GRM: The first level and most accessible and immediate contact for the fastest resolve of grievances are the contractors, and design and supervision consultants on site. Prior to construction of any works, the CLPIU and DLPIU will

10 | P a g e

Resettlement Plan of Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu

ensure local community meetings are held to notify local residents and businesses of any temporary disturbances, and to inform them of the Project. If a local area committee (LAC) exists in the area, they should also be informed. If any complaints arise, the contractors, consultants, and DLPIU can immediately resolve the complaint on site. The CLPIU can also be involved in grievance redress at this stage. The CLPIU and DLPIU office phone number will be posted in public areas within the subproject areas and construction sites. Any person with a grievance related to the project works can contact the project to file a complaint. The DLPIU offices will have a safeguards focal person to field and resolve complaints. The safeguards (environment and resettlement) focal person will document the complaint, and immediately address and resolve the issue with the contractor within 1-2 days, if the complaint remains unresolved at the field level. The DLPIU may seek the assistance of the consultant safeguards specialists (the environmental specialist or social safeguards specialist) to resolve the issue. The DLPIU safeguards focal person will notify the CLPIU safeguards focal person that a complaint was received, and whether it was resolved. The DLPIU safeguards focal person will fully document the following information: (i) name of the person; (ii) date complaint was received; (iii) nature of complaint; (iv) location, and (v) how the complaint was resolved. b. Second level of GRM:If the grievance remain unresolved; the DLPIU will forward the complaint to the CLPIU safeguards focal person. The person filing the grievance will be notified by DLPIU safeguards focal person that the grievance was forwarded to the PIU safeguards focal person. The CLPIU will address the grievance. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons, and the CLPIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including environmental or social impacts. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field level by the CLPIU safeguards focal person within 7 days. He/she will fully document the following information: (i) name of the person; (ii) date complaint was received; (iii) nature of complaint; (iv) location and (v) how the complaint was resolved. c. Third level of GRM: If the grievance remain unresolved, the CLPIU’s project director will activate the third level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to a Grievance Redress Committee (GRC) constituted by the EA, which will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the CLPIU, DLPIU, and affected persons. The GRC will consist of safeguard focal person leadership, affected persons, and local area committee, among others—determined to provide impartial, balanced views on any issues. The GRC should consist of at least five persons. A hearing will be called with the GRC, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern and issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The GRC will meet as necessary when there are grievances to be addressed. The GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign clear responsibilities for implementing its decision within 15 days. The functions of the GRC are as follows: (i) to provide support to affected persons on problems arising from environmental or social disruption, asset acquisition (where required), and eligibility for entitlements, compensation, and assistance; (ii) to record grievances of affected persons, categorize and prioritize them, and provide solutions within 15 days; and (iii) to report to the aggrieved parties developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC. The safeguard focal person will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the GRC, recording decisions, issuing

11 | P a g e

Resettlement Plan of Sankhu-Paluwari-Nagarkot Road Subproject, Kathmandu

minutes of the meetings, and taking follow-up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

d. Fourth level of GRM: In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the contractor, DISC, DLPIU, CLPIU or GRC, the affected person can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate courts, the fourth level of the GRM, which is the formal legal court system. The GRM however does not prevent affected persons from seeking legal redress at any time.

28. A well-defined grievance redress and resolution mechanism has been in place to resolve grievances and complaints in a timely and satisfactory manner. District Level Project Implementation Unit (DLPIU) is playing key role to address all kinds of grievances of project affected people. All affected HHs are oriented and made fully aware of their rights, and the detailed grievance redress procedures have been publicized through an effective public information campaign. First Level of GRM has initiated its work at field effectively. .

5. RESETTLEMENT POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK

5.1 Nepal Government Applicable Legal and Policy Framework

29. This section provides the review of national laws, policies of the donor agency and the Resettlement Framework of the EEAP that applies to the project.

30. The Land Acquisition Act, 2034 (1977) is the main legal document on land acquisition and resettlement activities in Nepal. There is provision in Clause 3 of the Act to acquire land for any public purpose, subject to award of compensation. According to Clause 4, institutions seeking land acquisition may also request the Government of Nepal to acquire land under regular provisions, subject to compensation by such institutions. Clause 27 of the Act provides for land acquisition through negotiation with the plot owners, were all processes specified in the Act is not required.

31. The Reconstruction Related Act 2072 (2015)3 is the most recent Act promulgated after the earthquake of April 2015 for the reconstruction of earthquake affected structures. The Notice 2, Part 3 and Part 5 of this Act’s Regulation explains the land acquisition and compensation determination process and procedures, named under, ‗the working procedures on land acquisition required for reconstruction of earthquake affected structures, 2072’. The major clauses of these working procedures related to land acquisition are highlighted under:  Clause 3-4: the land required for reconstruction project can acquire land from anywhere for the project and reserves right to enter such land.  Clause 5 (1): the project head should include the details of the land to be acquired and send for approval to NRA secretary.  Clause 5 (3): after NRA approval, the project head should publish the details of the land plots to be acquired in national or local level newspaper requesting the land owners to register complain within 15 days if they do not agree.  Clause 5 (4-10): processes of keeping such land plots on hold and resolve disagreements of the land owners if any.  Clause 6 (1): the project head will write to land registration office for transferring the ownership of the land plots acquired according to Clause 5 (3) and Clause 5 (7) in the name of Government of Nepal.  Clause 8 (2): formation of Compensation Determination Committee (CDC).  Clause 10 (1-2): CDC should determine the compensation rate on the basis of market rate, vulnerability of the loss-owner and so on which should be stated in the decision minute.  Clause 10 (3): CDC should make the compensation decisions public as soon as possible to notify the landowners, publish in national or local newspapers, notice in VDC or municipality board about details of compensation amount recipients, date and place to receive compensation and about place and duration to complain if not agree with the compensation amount.  Clause 11 (1): Unsatisfied individuals can complain about the compensation amount within 15 days of the notice publication.  Clause 11 (2-4): process of resolving complains received as per Clause 11 (1).

 Clause 12 (1): compensation should be given to any standing crops or trees or plants of the land plots while entering in lands as per Clause 4.  Clause 13 (1-4): duration to receive compensation is 3 months from the date of notice publication as Clause 10(3). If not, the project head shall register the amount in the office and public the notice to receive the amount within 6 months. If the recipients still do not claim the amount, such amount will be no longer payable and register in reserve fund.  Clause 16: if any public land needs to acquire but occupied by any individual, government can compensate with other public land to those individual, if land is available.  Clause 17: If the remaining land area becomes unusable after land acquisition, the remaining land shall be acquired by the project if complained by the landowner within 35 days of notice publication as per Clause 10(3).

32. The National Policy on Land Acquisition, Resettlement and Rehabilitation in Infrastructure Development Projects 2015 provide clear guidelines to screen, assess and plan land acquisition and resettlement aspects in development projects. The Policy highlights the need to handle resettlement issues with utmost care and forethought particularly in case of vulnerable groups. There are provisions of voluntary land donation by non-poor. Voluntary donation will be accepted if a) donation of land is < 10% of his agriculture land b) The donation is unforced, not the result of community pressure and MOU should be signed and is witnessed by third party c) Land donating HHs should not be from vulnerable group and poor families d) APs is fully consulted informed about their rights. Non-titled (encroachers/squatters) are eligible for compensation for their property except land.Compensation for structure; crops and tree should be calculated scientifically not less than market price.

33. The Constitution of Nepal 2015 guarantees the fundamental rights and duties of a citizen. Article 30(1) establishes the right to property for every citizen of Nepal, whereby every citizen is entitled to earn, use, sell and exercise their right to property under existing laws. Article 30 (2) states can impose taxes on the property of person as necessary on the basis of principles of progressive taxation. Article 30(3) states shall not except in the public interest, requisition or acquire, or otherwise create any encumbrance on, the property of the people.But not apply to any property acquired in an illicit manner. Article 30 (4) in requisition of private land for public interest according to sub-article (3), it shall be done on the basis of compensation and procedural law.Article 30 (5), Nothing in sub –articles (3) and (4) shall be deemed to prevent the state in enforcing land reform, management and regulation for the purpose of increasing production and productivity of land, modernization and commercialization of agriculture, environment preservation, organized housing and planned urbanization.

34. The Guthi Corporation Act 1976, in case of Guthi Land acquisition must also comply with the provisions set out in. The second amendment in 1993, section 43 of the Act states that if Government of Nepal thinks that any Guthi land is required for social welfare or community interest, such a lad can be acquired at a concessional rate. In addition, the Act states that the compensation of Guthi land will be divided into Guthi and the tenants. The Guthi will receive 33 percent and the tenant will receive 67

14| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

percent of the total compensatory amount.

35. The Public Roads Act 1974 empowers the government to acquire any land on a temporary basis for storage facilities, construction camps and so on during construction and upgrading of roads. Any buildings and other structures such as houses, sheds, schools, and temples are to be avoided wherever possible. The government is required to pay compensation for any damages caused to buildings, standing crops and trees. Compensation rates are negotiated between the government and the landowners. 36. The Land Reform Act 1964 is also relevant. As per the Act, a landowner may not be compensated for more land than s/he is entitled to under the law. This Act also establishes the tiller’s right on the land which s/he is tilling. The land reform act additionally specifies the compensation entitlements of registered tenants on land sold by the owner or acquired for the development purposes. The Act amendment most recently in 2001 has established a rule that when state acquires land under tenancy, the tenant and the landlord will each be entitled to 50 percent of the total compensation amount.

37. The Malpot Ayn or Land Revenue (land administration and revenue) Act, 2034 is the main Act to carry out land administration including maintenance and updating records, collection of land revenue and settlement of the disputes after completion of survey and handing over the records to LRO by the Survey Parties. It authorizes the LRO for registration, ownership transfer and deed transfer of land. This Act also authorizes the LRO to transfer ownership and deeds of individual land, if any person applied for the ownership and deeds of individual land, if any person applied for the ownership transfer of his/her land with mutual understanding for public use with recommendation of relevant committee. 38. Local Self Governance Act 1999: The Clause 258 in the Part–5, General Provisions relating to Local Body Chapter–3, Miscellaneous of the Local Self-Governance Act,1999 has provision of land acquisition.The Clause states that in case the Local body has to acquire land to carry out any development and construction works within its area, it may acquire the land required for that work by following the requirements of the prevailing law and providing compensation to the concerned land-owner for the land. The Clause 149 of the LSGA has provision of prohibition on construction of building without obtaining approval. The clause states that no person shall, without obtaining construction approval from the May or, do' construction of a building'4in the municipal area. According to the Clause161(1) the May or may depute any engineer, overseer or employee to inquire into the following matters in respect to any building constructed or being constructed by any one in the municipal area: Whether or not approval has been obtained pursuant to this Act to construct such building, Whether or not such a building has been constructed or is being constructed in accordance with the design approved pursuant to this Act, and Whether or not any public land, road, temple, courtyard, sewerage, canal, pond etc.is encroached upon from such a building.(2) The person deputed to inquirein to the matters pursuant to Sub section(1)shall have to inquire into

5.2 ADB’s Involuntary Resettlement Policy Requirement

40. The objectives of ADB’s Safeguards Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS) with regard to involuntary resettlement are: (i) to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; (ii) to minimize involuntary resettlement 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.

41. ADB’s SPS covers permanent and temporary physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, orloss of shelter) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of (i) involuntary acquisition of land, or (ii) involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. The SPS covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary.

42. For any ADB operation requiring involuntary resettlement, resettlement planning is an integral part of project design, to be dealt with from the earliest stages of the project cycle, taking into account the following basic principles:

I. Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks.

16| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

II. Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernment organizations (NGOs). Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and indigenous people, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations. Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the affected persons’ concerns. Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by social preparation. III. Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through (a) land- based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land-based, or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods; (b) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value; (c) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored; and (d) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible. IV. Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistant including the following: (a) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities, economic and social integration of resettled persons into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (b) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (c) civic infrastructure and community services, as required. V. Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas, provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas, provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing. VI. Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement, to ensure that people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status. VII. Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets. VIII. Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule. IX. Disclose a draft resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and in a form and language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders. X. Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of the project’s costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation.

17| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

XI. Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation. XII. Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.

5.3 Gap Filling Between ADB and Government of Nepal Policies

43. The Government of Nepal’s legal frameworks and ADB’s SPS share the following: I. Both permanent and temporary involuntary resettlement shall be avoided to the extent possible or minimized where feasible, exploring all viable alternative project designs. II. Where displacement is unavoidable, people losing assets, livelihood, or other resources shall be assisted in improving status at no cost to them.

44. There are certain differences as shown in Table 8, and where different, ADB’s SPS will be applied for subprojects.

3.1 Key Difference between ADB Policy and Government of Nepal Legal Framework

Table 8: Key Difference between ADB Policy and GoN

S.N. ADB Policy Government of Nepal Legal Framework 1 Compensation for assets Legal ownership is required for compensation regardless of legal ownership. eligibility; however, tenants registered with the Land Revenue Office are also recognized. 2 Compensation to all affected Encroachers are not entitled to compensation. persons regardless of tenure for all affected structures. 3 Compensation for affected Compensation is to be determined by the assets at replacement cost. compensation Fixation Committee to be formed under the Chief District Office which may be replacement cost.

45. In cases where subprojects involve voluntary donation and no other land acquisition and involuntary resettlement impacts, the subproject will be classified as Category C, but the CLPIU will prepare a report to ADB (to be attached to the classification form) which will document that: (i) the subproject site is selected in full consultation with landowners and any non-titled affected persons; (ii) voluntary donations do not severely affect the living standards of affected persons and the amount of agricultural or other productive land to be acquired from each affected household does not exceed 5% of the total productive landholdings of the household; (iii) voluntary donations are linked directly to benefits for the affected persons; (iv) any voluntary donation will be confirmed through written record and verified by an independent third party; (v) there is an adequate grievance process (vi)

18| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

no affected household will be displaced from housing and severely affected; (viii) no affected household is vulnerable; and (ix) a process is in place to provide official documentation to those who donated land of their landholding post- donation. In cases where the subproject is classified as B and involves voluntary donation, the voluntary donation report will be attached to the resettlement plan.

46. All involuntary land acquisition will be compensated at replacement cost and APs assisted so that their economic and social future would generally be as favorable as it would have been in the absence of the project. The absence to formal title to land will not be a bar to compensation assistance for loss of assets and special attention will be paid to ensuring that households headed by women and other vulnerable groups receive appropriate assistance to help them and improve their status. The APs whose land will be affected by the road was informed through publishing general notice during census survey, which will remain the ―cut-off-date (2072.10.19) for the entitlement and owners (including non-titled) of affected assets till such a date will be eligible to be categorized as APs. The entitlement policy/matrix is annexed.

19| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

6. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE AND BENEFITS

47. The APs whose land is being affected by the road subproject was informed to the local people by publishing a general notice during the socioeconomic survey. This date of notice publication, February 2, 2016, will remain the cut-off-date for the entitlement. The owners, including non-titled, of the affected assets till that date are eligible to be categorized as APs.

48. The compensation to be paid for affected assets will be based on the principle of replacement cost, which is the amount needed to replace an affected asset without deduction for taxes and/or costs of transaction before displacement and which is operationally defined as follows:

i. Productive land (agricultural, ponds, and forest) based on replacement cost that reflect recent land sales, and in the absence of such recent sales, based on productive value; ii. Residential land based on replacement cost that reflect resent land sales, and in the absence of such resent land sales, based on similar location attributes; iii. Houses and other related structures based on replacement cost reflecting current market prices of materials and labor without depreciation nor deductions for salvaged building materials; iv. Annual crops equivalent to current market value of crops at the time of compensation. v. For perennial corps and trees, cash compensation at replacement cost is equivalent to current market value given the type, age, and productive value (future production) at the time of compensation. Timber trees based on diameter at four feet height at current market value; vi. For temporary impacts, no compensation for land if returned to the legal owners, permissory and non-legal right users, and the land restored to pre-project condition within 3 months after use. If the land is not returned and restored to pre-project condition within 3 months, the affected person will receive compensation at replacement cost for the land. A penalty clause will be included in the contractor’s contract to ensure that the cost of such compensation is recovered from the contractor.

49. The residential and commercial loss will be further provided with allowances in order to support their living condition. For the houses to be relocated, material transport allowances is provided. Similarly, if there is loss of income due to disruption of business or employment, material transport and one time assistance allowance is provided. Further the policies on compensation and other entitlements are annexed in Appendix V.

50. The one family who has no legal title to the land but the structure is being affected by the subproject will not be exempted from the benefits of the subproject. The family will get full compensation for the affected structure, related allowances and participate in other program like skill enhancement trainings. Similarly, there are 4 residential structures which are partially affected by the subproject. However, considering the vulnerability of the structures due to the earlier earthquake and this subproject, these structures will be fully compensated.

20| P a g

Resettlement Plan of Thaiba-Godamchaur Road Subproject, Lalitpur

51. A Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Action Plan (GESI/AP) has been prepared for the Project and subprojects will be prepared and implemented in accordance with the GESI/AP. Consistent with the GESI/AP, resettlement planning and implementation will ensure that women, as members of the affected households, are adequately considered when they are physically or economically displaced by subprojects. They will be given equal opportunity for participation in public consultations.

7 RELOCATION OF HOUSING AND SETTLEMENTS

52. There are 13 structures affected by the road subproject in which 12 are private residential structures of different types. Among the residential structures, 4 are permanent structures where are other 8 are temporary shelters built after the earthquake. Thus, this subproject is likely to displace 12 families from their current location.

53. Although these families are being physically displaced by the subproject, it is learnt that the 4 families have another house for temporary shifting making them less vulnerable in terms of resettlement. Similarly, all other temporary and permanent residential structure owners have either enough space in the same plot or other plot nearby beyond CoI of the road in order to rebuild their house. The earthquake affected families, living in the temporary sheds will be resettled in the land beyond the COI enabling them to continue with their business (tea-shops, grocery shops). The Bishamvara Multipurpose Cooperative building and one affected family, Mr. Bhola Damai whose house is built in public land will be resettled in the same public plot beyond CoI. RP has allocated material transport allowances for these APs along with the compensation of the structure at replacement cost. The relocation of the affected residences will be completed before civil works starts at the particular chainage.

54. APs will be compensated at replacement cost for any involuntary land acquisition. In line with the Reconstruction Related Act 2072, the Compensation Determination Committee (CDC) will be formed at the district level to decide compensation rates for land and property to be acquired. The Notice 2, Part 3 and Part 5 of this Act’s Regulation explain about the detail of CDC working procedures. Clause 8 (2) states the composition of CDC as follows:  Chief District Officer – Chairperson  Land Revenue Officer – Member  Officer appointed by NRA – Member  President/Secretary/Executive Officer from VDC/Municipality – Member  Survey Officer –Member  Project Officer – Member Secretary

7.1 Valuation and Compensation Determination

55. The survey and valuation of affected HHs’ properties were undertaken by Consultants on the basis of respective district rate. The compensatory rates have been disclosed in the community meeting held on August 16, 2016 (Refer photographs). The community has not shown differences in the proposed compensatory rates of the losses. However, the proposed government rate for land compensation is still in consultation for the final CDC meeting. The team has assessed losses and estimated values for compensation were figured out in this RP. Cadastral mapping has verified the land plots of road alignment for the deed transfer.

8 INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION PROGRAM 57. During the socioeconomic survey, 32 interviewed HHs have expressed their interest to be the part of the training and benefit from entrepreneurial skills. 22 HHs are proposed for the training and priority will be accorded to Dalits, Janajatis, women headed HHs, BPLs HHs.. Income Restoration Program (IRP) will be designed for the one person per family in 16-45 age-group. List of trainings are being finalized in the district and the tentative cost of the training program is NRs 1521959.44.

58. 23 non-interviewed HHs, whenever they approach the project, will be given further consultation on entitlement, compensation. The amount of compensation has been separated in the non-interviewed assistance cost NRs 23000.00 for non-interviewed owner as a precautionary measure.

9. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET

59. Total resettlement cost including compensation and allowances, operation and administration costs, surveys, monitoring and reporting, and income restoration will be financed by the Government as counterpart funds. A contingency of 20 percent will be included in these cost estimates to be used as required during implementation of the resettlement plan. The estimation of the cost for RP is described under following paragraphs.

9.1 Cost of Compensation for Assets

60. Compensation for assets includes land and structures. Compensation of structure is calculated based on replacement cost of the affected structures without depreciation or deduction for salvaged material. Additionally, assistance allowances for 1 month minimum wage per adult for the HH who move within their plot of land and 2 month for HHs who will move another plot of land and material transportation allowance 1 month minimum wage per adult if relocating in same village, 2 month minimum wage per adult if relocating elsewhere in the district will be also calculated for residential structures (Details are attached in appendix III). Land rates are calculated based on District Land Revenue office rate. All these valuations finally will be endorsed by CDC.

9.2 Compensation for land 61. The additional requirement of private land for upgrading is 2.95 ha which costs NRs 93,681868.90/ as per the current Government rate. The land rate for land compensation is presented in the Table 9.

9.3 Compensation for structures 62. There are 12 private structures and 1 public structure which are affected along the alignment. Compensation amount for these structures is calculated by the technical team based on district norms taking account of RF criteria and considering recent NRA norms. Although the four residential and the public building are partially affected by the subproject, these structures are fully compensated for the physical structures as the structures are already affected by the earthquake and small disturbances might make it unusable. The eight other CGI temporary shelters will not be compensated for physical structure as they are listed to be compensated by NRA. These temporary shelter owners are paid only for material transport and business allowances if any. The total compensation amount for the physical structures of the five buildings is NRs 4886338.82/ Details are included in appendix IV.

9.4 Compensation for standing crops 63. During the survey, there were no crops found on the affected plots because land are found barren. Therefore no valuation of crops was carried out.

9.5 Other Supporting Cost

64. There are 12 private affected structures and 1 community building along the alignment. 4 residence buildings and 8 temporarily tarahas need to be relocated. All the affected structure owners are entitled to get material transport cost equivalent of one month minimum wage if relocating in the same village. Similarly, for any structures operating any kind of business are entitled to get one time assistance allowance of one month minimum wage rate for the households. There are total five structures which operate small shop in their house who are entitled for the business allowance. The total allowances for structure owners is NRs 310500/ (refer Appendix IV for details).

65. Other supporting costs in Resettlement Plan implementation includes, compensating the time given by the affected households during deed transfer and other purposes. This cost includes the amount required for management cost for APs’ households and deed transfer fees in the district. The estimated amount for supporting cost is NRs.662000.00/
