EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A. Scope of the Project

1. The Government of Tamil Nadu has proposed to upgrade its road network under Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project (CKICP) that aims at improving the transport infrastructure, such as connectivity of industrial nodes to ports, urban areas, other nodes and critical hinterland areas, with financial assistance from the Asian Development Bank as Tamil Nadu Industrial Connectivity Project. As part of the current project, the Highways Department of Tamil Nadu has been mandated to undertake improvement and upgradation of various State Highways at different locations in the Stateunder this project.

2. The proposed project will support, upgradation and improvement of the identified 16 road projects totalling of about 587.099 km spread across the State.The Project Implementation Unit (PIU) of the Highways Department has prepared this Resettlement Plan (RP) for the Tiruchendur – Palayamkottai – Ambasamudram Road (SH 40-II), being one of the 16 road proposed under CKICP. This RP assesses theinvoluntary resettlement impacts resulting from the acquisition of private land and impacts on squatters and encroachersoccupying the Right of Way (RoW). It outlines mitigation measures in line with ADB's Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 and Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013.

B. Project Road Description

3. The Tiruchendur–Palayamkottai–Ambasamudram Road (SH 40) Part-II involves improvements to 21.4 km of the State Highway- (SH-40) (Part II) with one ROB. The entire stretch along the existing 2-lane corridor on SH-40 (Part II) is proposed to be improved toa two-lane corridor with paved shoulders, paver block and drains. This project road is located in district and spreads across Taluks of Cheranmahadevi and Ambasamudram.

C. Scope of the Land Acquisition and Resettlement Impacts

4. The objective of this Resettlement Plan (RP) is to assist the affected people to improve or at least restore their living standards to the pre-project level. This RP captures the involuntary resettlement impacts arising out of the proposed improvements to the proposed project road of CKICP. The document describes the magnitude of impact, mitigation measures proposed, method of valuation of land, structures and other assets, eligibility criteria for availing benefits, base line socio-economic characteristics, entitlements based on type of loss and tenure, the institutional arrangements for delivering the entitlements and the mechanism for resolving grievances and monitoring.

5. The land plan schedules based on the detailed design have been prepared for this project stretch and the number of titleholders based on the revenue records has been captured. The proposed project road will involve the acquisition of 4.873 Ha of private land belonging to 214 landowners, the transfer of 0.7031 Ha of HR&CE and Government land. The number of landowners could vary during implementation due to issues related to ownership and mutation of titles. The precise number of titleholders will be updated once the land acquisition enquiry and award process are completed.

6. The improvements proposed will cause impact to 82 private structures. The impact to 82 private structures will cause the physical displacement of 02 households, of economic displacement of 10 households, of physical and economic displacement of 01 households and non-significant impacts on 69 households. There are 80 landowners losing more than 10 percent ii land who would also face economic displacement. In addition, 04 tenants and 23 common property resources will also be affected. In all, the project will cause impact to households 249 comprising of 1051 persons.

7. Out of 82 affected structures, 13 are significantly affected. Out of 13 significantly affected structures 02 are residential structures and 10 are commercial structures, the 01 are residential cum commercial structures. Out of the total affected structures 9.77% are permanent structures, 9.77% are semi-permanent structures, 65.83% of the structures are temporary in nature and 14.63% are other category structures. The primary structures include 11 owners of business, 04 commercial tenants.

8. In addition to 214 titled holders, 24 encroachers, 07 squatters, 04 tenants also would be affected. In all, the project will cause impact to 249 households comprising of approximately 1051 persons.

D. Information Disclosure, Consultation, and Participation

9. During the census and socio-economic survey, focus groups discussions (FGDs) were conducted along the project road in settlements and sections where there were impacts to common property resources. Allrelevantaspectsofthe road improvement design, land requirements and impact to private property were discussedwiththeaffectedcommunities. Further, consultation meetingswith affected persons, owners of commercial establishment along the project road, officials of the district administration and elected members of the local panchayat were held in three locations. A total of 78 individuals haveparticipated the consultation process. Public consultation meeting held at Ammanpuram with the participation of Ammanpuram, Kanthasamy puram and Kanam people including the project affected persons. A total number of 56 public and 16 CKICP staff have participated.

10. Information will be disseminated to PAPs / DPsat various stages. Information including magnitude of loss, detailed asset valuations, entitlements and special provisions, grievance procedures, timing of payments, displacement schedule, civil works schedule will be disclosed by the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Unit (LARRU)with the assistance from the Project Management Consultanthired for implementing the RP. The translated gist of the RP would provide details of the project, magnitude of impact to land and assets, eligibility and entitlement, institutional arrangement and grievance redressal process. Hardcopies of the gist of the EM in Tamil will be distributed to the DPs by the LARRIC as per the ADB guidelines.

E. Legislative Framework, Entitlements, Assistance and Benefits

11. The entitlements for the Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project (CKICP) is based on the national law: The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, State laws and regulations and ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009.

12. For title holders, the date of preliminary notificationwill be treated as the cut-off date, and for non-titleholders, the cut-off date will be the census revalidation date, as in this projecttheoriginalcensus survey was done in September 2015. The census revalidation has been carried out in 22 March2019. The date of commencement of census revalidation (i.e) 22 March 2019will be the cut-off date for non-titled holders for this project.

13. The Entitlement Matrix (EM) for the Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project summarizes the types of losses and the corresponding nature and scope of entitlements and is in compliance with National/State Laws, in particular the Right to Fair Compensation and iii Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 and Asian Development Bank’s Safeguards Policy Statement, 2009. The total resettlement cost for the project is Rs.38.76 Million.

F. Grievance Redress Mechanism 14. Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC) will be established at two-levels, one at the Regionallevel and another at Project level, to receive, evaluate and facilitate the resolution of affected persons concerns, complaints and grievances.

G. Implementation Arrangements

15. To expedite land acquisition and implement the provisions of the road-project RPs, four regional levels Land Acquisition Rehabilitation and Resettlement Units (LARRU) have been constituted and all the four units are operational. This road comes under the jurisdiction of Tirunelveli region LARRU. LARR units are headed by Special District Revenue Officer, Tirunelveli (Spl DRO) and supported by a Resettlement Officer (RSO), Tirunelveli and special Tahsildar, Tirunelveli.

3. The project, ‘Tiruchendur – Palayamkottai – Ambasamudram Road (SH 40-II), involves improvements to about 21.400 km of the State Highway-40. The existing 2-lane corridor along SH-40(Part II) will be improved to a two-lane corridor with paved shoulders and drains. This project corridor is located in and spreads across Cheranmahadevi and Ambasamudram Taluks. The key plan of the project road is presented below.

Figure 1: Key Plan

4. In rural sections, the proposed cross section design is 23.00m that consists 7.00m carriage way, 2x1.5m paved shoulders, 2x1.00m earthen shoulders, 2x4.00m Utility corridors and 2x1.5m embankment and drain. In urban sections, the cross-section design is 16.00m that consists 7.00m carriageway, 2x1.5m paved shoulders, 2x1.5 Utility corridors and 2x1.5 footpath cum drains.

5. The project road located within the Tirunelveli district, and the Cheranmahadevi and Ambasamudram taluks. The road is important since it is connecting to National Highway (NH-7) in Palayamkottai, which is a major route connecting end of Tamil Nadu to Northern parts of India. The project road will have 22bus bays along the road at the site of existing bus stops. There are 1 level crossing across the project road at Km 75+700.

C. Profile of the Project Area

6. This project corridor is located in Tirunelveli district and spreads across the taluks of Cheranmahadevi and Ambasamudram.

7. Tirunelveli district is one of the southern most district of Tamil Nadu covering an area of 6823 sq.km. It lies between 8 0 05’ and 9 0 30’ North Latitude and 77 0 05’ and 78 0 25’ East Longitude. It shares its borders with district in its north, to its east, 3

Kanyakumari district to its south and Thiruvandathapuram and Kollam districts (of the state of ) on its west. The district receives rainfall both from the southwest (147 mm) and northeast (548 mm) monsoons, the latter being higher. The major rivers of the district- Tamiraparani and Hanumanathi originate from the Western Ghats and flow towards the east. Several other seasonal streams like Servallar, Manimuthar, Ramanathi, Pachayat, Chittar and Uppodai drain into the Tamarapari basin. These rivers form the major source of canal and tank irrigation and recharge a sizeable number of wells forming the backbone of agriculture in the district, apart from generating hydroelectric power.

8. As per the Census of India (2011) the undivided Tirunelveli district had a total population of 3,077,233 [(Males: 1520912 (49.42%) and Female: 1556321 (50.58%)]. The percentage of rural population was 50.60% and urban population was 49.40%. Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes accounted for 18.51% and 0.33% respectively. The district consisted of a total of 815,528 households. The population density of the district was 460 per sq.km. The major crop cultivated in the district is paddy. Other crops like Cumbu, Cholam, Kudiravali and Ragi are cultivated are cultivated under rainfed conditions. Banana and other vegetables are cultivated along the river belts of the district.

D. Project Impacts

9. The towns and villages along the Chennai to Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor will improve connectivity with the National Highways NH-7 and NH-45. This will lead to industrial growth along this project road that will result in employment generation. Further, the improvements proposed under this road will improve connectivity for the local community living in the vicinity, to markets, health care facilities, and educational institutions due to better designed roads. However, the improvements will involve the acquisition of private land for widening and geometric improvements. Moreover, it will also have impacts on non-titled holders using the Right of Way (RoW).

10. The involuntary resettlement impacts are summarized in Table 2. The proposed project road will involve the acquisition of 4.873 Ha of private land belonging to 214 landowners, the transfer of 0.5521Ha of government and 0.1510 Ha of HR&CE lands and will impact 82 private structures. The total Affected Households (AHs) on the road are 249 including tenants. Among these, 02 HHs will lose residence and have to be physically displaced; 10 household economically displaced through loss of shops; 01 household will lose both their residence and shops. A total of 04 tenants (which includes 04 commercial structure) will be affected by the project. The number of total affected persons (TAPs) is 1051, of which 903 are titled Aps and 148 non-titled Aps including 04 affected tenents. Among the 13 significantly affected households, 03 are Vulnerable Households. A total numer of 82 structures will be affected and 318 trees on private land will have to be removed. A total number of 23 Common Property Resources (CPRs) like bus shelters and other public infrastructure will be affected. The involuntary resettlement impacts are summarised in Table2.

11. Based on the census survey, 03 vulnearble households were identified as significantly affected irrespective of title or non-title holders. Among the significantly impacted household, the vulnerable constitute 01 Household with disabled member, 01 schedule caste and 01 elderly. Among the non-significantly impacted household. The households available at project site during the survey period only covered in the survey. However the HHs those who are not staying in the project area will also be surveyed during award enquiry, which is in progress. The vulnerability assessment will be done for all the project affected families/members.Government of Tamil Nadu, government is implementing various welfare schemes for upliftment of vulnerable people of the state. Hence project will provide additional benefits for the affected vulnerable Households as per EM. Non-significantly affected PAFs would be compensated for loss of structure or land affected by the project.

E. Minimizing Involuntary Resettlement

12. Measures were taken to minimise adverse involuntary resettlement impacts by adopting concentric widening in built-up sections and reducing the proposed right-of-way to 16m. The available right-of-way (RoW) was utilised to the maximum, thereby reducing additional land requirements for the proposed widening.

F. Impact to Indigenous Peoples

13. The census and socio-economic survey and consultations conducted along the project road confirm that there are no affected indigenous people.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

A. Introduction 14. This project involves improvements to 21.400 km of Tiruchendur – Palayamkottai – Ambasamudram Road (SH 40-II) to two lanes with paved shoulders. The improvement works include geometric improvements, junction improvements, provision of drains and footpaths in built up locations.

B. Scope of Land Acquisition 15. The available right-of-way (RoW) was fully optimizedfor the proposed improvements. The exact alignment of the RoWwasdetermined using village maps and verified in the field. The highways department confirms that, the existing right of way belongs to highways department and there are no legacy issues in any of the project stretches. In many areas, the existingRoWis not sufficient to meet the design requirements of the cross sections.The highways department confirms that, the existing right is belongs to highways department and there are no legacy issues in any of the project stretches. The private land required for the proposed improvements is 4.873Ha, comprising of 2.5892 Ha of wet land and 2.2838 Ha of dry land. The private land proposed for acquisition is mostly strips of land. Further, 0.7031 Ha of HR&CE and Government land will also be required to be transferred for the proposed improvements. In all a total of 5.5761 Ha will have to be acquired.The land acquisition plans (LAPs) have been prepared and the precise the numberoftitleholders and extent of land lost will be updated once the LAP joint is completed and the 6reliminary notification is issued.

17. The extent of land lost and the scale of impact to title-holders is presented in Table 5. Over 134 households will lose upto10 % due to the road widening and the bypass. A total of 39 HHs will be affected above 10% but below 25% impact; 06 HHs above 25% and below 33.3% impact; 14 HHs above 33.3% and below 50% impact; 08 HHs above 50% and below 75% and 13 HHs above 75%. Survey covered all the affected households including the HHs losing only strip of land. During revalidation survey (March 2019) the study team could not contact most of the land 7 only affected households as they are staying away from the project site and no proper contact details are available with the land acquisition offices. However, most of such households would be attending the award enquiry meetings, being conducted by respective land acquisition officer. Census survey/validation is also being done during the award enquiry. All the affected households attending award enquiry will be covered in census survey and assessment will be done. On completion of award enquiries the list of PAHs would be finalized and the same shall be provided in the updated RP. The compensation will be paid as per the entitlement matrix. As per the approved EM, all the land only affected will be eligible for replacement cost and those who are losing livelihood is eligible for Rs 5 lakh in lieu with annuity policy under clause 1(b),2(h) and 3(g)

E. Magnitude of Impact on Structures 21. The project will impact 82 structures, which have been assessed for the significance of impact, with loss of less than 10 percent being considered as non-significant and loss of 10 percent and above as significant. Of course, during the RP implementation, a proper assessment on the structure’s viability will be conducted in consultation with its owner to determine whether the house is fully affected – even in case of less than 10% impact.

22. The extent of loss to structure and its use is presented inTable 8. Of the 16 HHs that will be affected, only 03 HHs will face 100% impact; the extent of loss faced by 04 HHs would be between 50%-99%; for 05 HHs between 20 – 50%; for 01 HHs between 10 – 20% and for 03 HH less than 10% impact.. Of course, during the RP implementation, a proper assessment on the structure’s viability will be conducted in consultation with its owner to determine whether the house is fully affected even in case of less than 10% impact by a qualified engineer in consultation with the affected HH. The information in Table 9 will be updated after the completion of the joint verification and on completion of structure valuation.

III. SOCIO-ECONOMIC INFORMATION PROFILE

A. Involuntary Resettlement Impacts This RP is based on the census and socio-economic survey carried out during May 2019 based on final and detailed design of the road project. The RP is based on the final engineering design, and the information provided in the RP is based on the preliminary notification. The physical and economic displacement shall be confirmed during award enquiry by the land acquisition officer. RP will be updated on completion of ‘Award Enquiry’ as per land acquisition procedure. The census survey identified 249 PAFs, of which 82 households losing their structures (both significant and non-significant) and the salient findings of the PAFs losing their structures are presented in the following sections. Compensation for loss of assets based on the extent and type have been worked out following Entitlement matrix, joint verification and valuation of assets for both physical and economic displacement. The information about the affected persons and compensation will be finalized during award enquiry for both eligible title and non-title holders (including vulnerable households). 26.

B. Methodology Adopted 27. The census survey enumerated all private assets/properties and common property resources within the proposed right-of-way (PRoW) of 16m in rural sections, 23m in urban sections and 30 m in by-pass sections. For every affected household, a pretested structured questionnaire was administered during the census survey. The survey recorded details of: (i) identity of the ProjectAffected Household (AH); (ii) tenure; and (iii) type, use and extent of loss to the DH.

28. In addition to recording the above information, detailed socio-economic characteristics, including demographic profile of members of the household, standards of living, inventory of physical assets, vulnerability characteristics, indebtedness level, health and sanitation, and ascertaining perceptions about project, resettlement options and compensation, was collected from all significantly affected household. All structures were photographed and numbered for reference and record. Details of common property resources within the PRoW were also recorded.

29. The affected households were categorised based on the severity of impact as significant (loss of 10 percent and above of the productive asset or structure) and non-significant (loss of less tan 10 percent of the productive asset or structure). The summary of Affected Households and the summary of Affected Common Property Resources arepresented in Appendix-1.

30. The census survey identified 82 households and 04 tenants who would be affected and 23 common property resource that would be affected and required to be relocated or compensated. Of the 82 households, 13 households will face significant impact and for 69 households will face non significant impact.

31. Further, as per the land-plan-schedule (LPS) that has been prepared, there are 214 land parcels which would involve at least that many number of land owners who would be losing a strip of their land due to widening or curve improvement. Among these 214 landowners, 80 landowners will be significantly affected with a loss of 10 percent or more of their land holding and the remaining 134 land owners will face non-significant impact as their loss is less than 10 percent.

32. The RP is based on the final engineering design, the information provided in the RP is based on the preliminary notification. The physical and economic displacement shall be confirmed during award enquiry by the land acquisition officer. RP will be updated on completion of ‘Award Enquiry’ as per land acquisition procedure. Socio economic survey has been conducted for all the physically and economically displaced affected households. The economic displacement of land only affected households can be assessed only during award enquiry. This section of the RP will be updated on completion of award enquiry. The socio-economic survey was carried out amongst 13 significantly affected households (includes both physical and economic displacement) losing either their place of residence or place of business or both; The details are provided in Tables 15 & 17 based on the current survey data. This section of the RP will be updated on completion of award enquiry. The survey details are analyzed and presented in the following sections. In some villages, around 45 assets were not surveyed, due to non-acceptance of providing data and to undertake measurement of the affected structures, hence there will be a chance of increase in number of DPs.

E. Plan for further Consultation in the Project 60. The extent and level of involvement of stakeholders at various stages of the project from design stage and through the RP implementation will open up the line of communication between the various stakeholders and the project implementing authorities, thereby aiding the process of resolving conflicts at the early stages of the project rather than letting it escalate into conflicts resulting in implementation delays and cost overrun. Participation of the local community in decision-making will help mitigate adverse impacts.

61. Further, successful implementation of the RP is directly related to the degree of involvement of those affected by the projectroad. Consultations with DPs will be conducted regularly during the RP implementation. The Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Unit (LARRU), the jurisdictional DE (H), and the RP implementing support LARRIC will be responsible for conducting these consultations. The proposed consultation plan will include the following. i) In case of any change in the project design, the DPs and other stakeholders will be consulted regarding the factors that necessitate the change, efforts taken to minimize resettlement impacts and mitigation measures available. ii) The LARRU, with the assistance of the LARRIC, will carry out information dissemination sessions in the project area. iii) During the implementation of the RP, the LARRIC will organize public meetings, and will appraise the communities about the schedule/progress in the RP and civil works implementation, including awareness regarding road safety and HIV AIDS prevention. iv) Consultations and focus group discussions will be conducted with vulnerable groups like women headed households, ST and SC to ensure that the vulnerable groups understand the process and thattheir needs are specifically taken into consideration.

62. A Public Consultation and Disclosure Plan will be finalised by the PIU in consultation with the projectLARRUas per the tentative schedule given in the following table.

F. Disclosure 63. The RP will be disclosed by the PIU and ADB upon its review and approval, and uploaded in the Highways website along with a summary version with the entitlement matrix translated in local language. The translated summary of the EM would provide details of the eligibility and entitlement, institutional arrangement and grievance redressal process. Hardcopies of the EM was prepared, printed in and distributed to all the PAPs and same is available at the office of the PIU, jurisdictional DE, LARRU and distributed to the DPs by the LARRIC. PAPs were explained about the compensation during house visits by LARRIC staff and in the public disclosure and award enquiry meetings.

64. Information will be disseminated to DPs at various stages. Information including magnitude of loss, detailed asset valuations, entitlements and special provisions, grievance procedures, timing of payments, displacement schedule, civil works schedule will be disclosed by the LARRU with assistance from the LARRIC hired for assisting in RP implementation and this will be done through public consultation. Entitlement booklets have been issued to PAFs and other stakeholders of the project, hence, accessing to booklet becomes much easier.

65. Hard copies of the full resettlement plan will also be made available at: (i) the offices of the LARRU; (ii) office of the District Collectors ;(iii) Taluk Offices; and (iv) Offices of the Panchayat / Union / Municipality / Corporation, as soon as the plans are available.

66. Electronic version of the RP will be placed on the official website of the project. In addition, all safeguard documents including thelist of eligible DPs will be available in the website throughout the life of the project.

V. POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK

A. Background 67. The Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project (CKICP) has prepared an Entitlement Matrix (EM) to mitigate the involuntary resettlement impacts that can arise in this project and is line with the EM of the Second Tamil Nadu Road Sector Project (TNRSP-II) which is currently being implemented. The EM complies with the provisions of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (RFCTLARR), State Laws and PoliciesandtheADB Safeguards Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS).

B. National Legislations, Policies and ADB Policy

68. The entitlements for the Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project (CKICP) is based on national law: The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, State laws and regulations and the ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009.

69. The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement (RFCTLARR) 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 assistance of the affected families. The basic principle of the RFCTLARR Act 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.

70. The Land Acquisition Officer 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 as per G.O. Ms.No 300 of Revenue and Disaster Management LA -1 (1), dated 21.09.2017. 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.

Relevance: In this project, land will be acquired invoking the Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001 and compensation, Rehabilitation and resettlement will be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (RFCTLARR). To enable use of TN Highways Act, Sec 105A was inserted in the RFCTLARR Act through an amendment.

71. A Resettlement and Rehabilitation award detailing the entitlements to be provided as per the Second Schedule of Act is passed by the LA officer after getting approval from the Project Director. Possession of land can be taken only after payment of compensation and Rehabilitationand resettlement entitlements as detailed in Second Schedule. The details of amenities to be provided in a resettlement site is detailed in the Third Schedule. 31

B. Legal and Policy Frameworks of Tamil Nadu 72. The legislations and policy concerning the land acquisition and resettlement for road project includes (i) Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001 and (ii)The Tamil Nadu Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Rules, 2017. (iii) GO Ms No. 300 of Revenue and Disaster Management (LA-I (1)) dated 21.09.2017. The factor by which the market value of land shall be multiplied in case the project is situated in rural areas in accordance with Section 26(2) of RFCTLARR Act read with the provisions contained in Serial Number 2 of the First Schedule of RFCTLARR Act has been notified vide this government order. The multiplication factor of 1.25 for projects that are within 30km from the urban area, a factor of 1.5 for projects beyond 30km and within 50km and a factor of 2.0 for projects beyond 50km.

C. ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 73. The ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) 2009 describes the policy objective, its scope and triggers and principles of (i) environmental safeguards; (ii) involuntary resettlement safeguards; and (iii) indigenous people’s safeguards. The objectives of involuntary resettlement safeguards are: (i) avoid involuntary resettlement where possible; (ii) if avoidance is not possible, minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; (iii) enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and (iv) improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

74. The involuntary resettlement safeguards policy 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) 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. It covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary.

75. The three important elements of involuntary resettlement safeguards 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 livelihoods of all displaced persons relative to pre-project levels and to improve the standard of living of displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

76. Replacement cost is defined as (i) fairmarket value; (ii) transaction costs; (iii) interest accrued, (iv) transitional and restoration costs; and (v) other applicable payments, if any.

D. Comparison of Government and ADB Policies 77. Overall, the new Act 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 3 years for affected non-titled holders 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 SPS. The Act furthermore is in line with ADB requirement that compensation be paid prior to project taking possession of any land.

32

78. The outstanding differences between the government and ADB policy is the establishment of a cut-off date for compensation or entitlements to non-title holders. The RFCTLARR Act, 2013 specifies that only non-titleholders residing on any land for the preceding three years or more will be entitled for compensation and assistance as per this Act. This gap has been bridged by incorporating the cut-off date for non-titleholders will be the start date of Census surveywhich is provided in the Resettlement Plan. Moreover, unlike SPS the new Land Act does not have special provisions for vulnerable households but only for scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. Special measures for vulnerable households have been included in this RP.

79. A significant development in Government statute is the notification of ‘The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013’, which has repealed the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 (as amended in 1984). This Act decreases significantly the gap between the LA Act 1894 and ADB’s SPS.The Act also provides for value of structures, trees, plants, or standing crops affectedtobe compensated at market value along with a solatium of 100 percent. The Act furthermore meets ADB requirement as Section 38(1) of RFCTLARR Act mandates payment of compensation and Rehabilitation and resettlement entitlementsprior to project taking possession of the land.

E. Involuntary Resettlement Safeguard Principles for the Project (i) Based on the above analysis of the government provisions and ADB policy, the following resettlement principles havebeenadopted for this Project: (ii) land acquisition, and other involuntary resettlement impacts will be avoided or minimized exploring all viable alternative sub-project designs; (iii) where unavoidable, time-bound resettlement plans (RPs) will be prepared and APs will be assisted in improving or at least regaining their pre-program standard of living; (iv) consultation with APs on compensation, disclosure of resettlement information to APs, and participation of APs in planning and implementing sub-projects will be ensured; (v) vulnerable and severely affected households will be provided special assistance; (vi) payment of compensation to APs including non-titled persons (e.g., informal dwellers/squatters, and encroachers) for acquired assets at replacement rates; (vii) payment of compensation and resettlement assistance prior to the contractor taking physical acquisition of the land and prior to the commencement of any construction activities; (viii) provision of income restoration and Rehabilitation; (ix) Establishment of appropriate grievance redressal mechanisms.

F. Valuation of land and assets 1. Compensation for Land 80. Land will be acquired upon payment of compensation as per the provisions of RFCTLARR act 2013, as detailed below: 1. Compensation rates will be, Higher of (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 (2) The market value in Rural areas shall be multiplied by a factor ranging from 1.25 to 2.00 as notified by GoTN. (3) Plus 100% solatium and 12% additional market value from date of 15(2) notification to award. This calculation 33 will satisfy the replacement cost requirements of SPS. In addition to land, valuation to structures and tress if any will be compensated. Additionally the project will provide 25% of the total amount for those who accepted for negotiated purchase, in addition to the compensation as per RFCTLARR act 2013,vide G.O.(D).No.195, Highways and Minor Ports (HS2) Department, Dated: 26.11.2019. 81. Where land owners refuse to accept the compensation or where there is a dispute to the title of the property the Spl DRO will remit such amount with the LARR authority and in all other cases, where compensation cannot be paid, the compensation amount will be kept in an interest bearing account with the project for a period of three years and paid to land owners as and when they come forward to accept the compensation. 2. Compensation for Structures

82. All affected households losing structures, regardless of legal title, will be paid compensation equivalent to the replacement cost of the structure, or in the case of titled-holders, compensations based on PWD rates in the area plus 100% solatium according to the RFCTLARR Act 2013. Replacement cost is the rate determined based on the prevailing scheduled of rates, updated by a panel of competent engineers every year. If the RFCTLARR Act 2013 rates are higher than replacement cost, they will be maintained for the project. If these rates are lower than replacement cost, then replacement cost for the structure will be provided to titled- holders also. In addition, physically displaced titled and non-titled holders will receive additional resettlement and subsistence allowances. All PAPs irrespective of their title will be compensated based on the Entitlement Matrix (EM).

83. Compensation for properties belonging to the community or common places of worship will be provided to enable construction of the same at new places through the department owning it or the local self-governing bodies like Village Panchayat/Village council or the trust/body managing the places of worship, in accordance with the modalities determined by such bodies to ensure correct use of the amount of compensation.Further, all compensation and assistance will be paid to DPs at least 1 month prior to displacement or dispossession of assets.

84. Upon payment of compensation, the APs will be given 1-month time to take away the materials salvaged from their dismantled houses or shops or other building, and no charges will be levied upon them for the same. A notice to that effect will be issued intimating that APs can take away the materials so salvaged within 30 days of receipt of compensation; or otherwise, the structure would be demolished and material disposed of by the project authority without giving any further notice.

3. Compensation for Trees 85. Compensation for trees will be based on their market value. Loss of timber trees, compensation for fruit bearing trees, perennial trees, loss of crops, will be compensated at their replacement cost for non-titled holders or, for titled-holders either compensated as replacement cost or as per the rates assessed by the Departments of Forest or Horticulture or Agriculture along with 100% solatium in line with the provision of RFCTLARR Act 2013, whichever is higher. For non – title holders compensation for fruit bearing trees will be paid without solatium (as per EM).The replacement cost of fruit trees will take into account the productive life of the tree. Prior to taking possession of the land or assets attached to the land, the compensation will be fully paidandAPs will have the opportunity to Harvest crops/trees within 1-month from the date of payment of compensation.

34

G. Updating Units of Entitlement 86. All units of entitlement and assistances will be revised by PIU, based on Consumer Price Index for Agricultural Labourers (CPIAL) and communicated to all LARRU for making payment as per the revised rates. The unit rates contained in the EM of this RP will be applicable until March 31, 2019. The updating will be done annually in the month of March and will become effective from the 1st day of April of that year. The unit rates will not be downgraded and the rate increased will be communicated to ADB.

H. Rehabilitation and Resettlement Award 87. The Spl DRO, LARRU will pass a separate Rehabilitation and Resettlement Award after getting approval from the Project Director, listing the names of displaced persons and their entitlements in accordance with approved EM for this project. The same will be displayed in prominent places such as the office of the local body concerned, office of the DE, Highways, LAARU and individual awards will be issued to the APs.

I. Rehabilitation and Resettlement Award 88. The Spl DRO, LARRU will pass a separate Rehabilitation and Resettlement Award after getting approval from the Project Director, listing the names of displaced persons and their entitlements in accordance with approved EM for this project. The same will be displayed in prominent places such as the office of the local body concerned, office of the DE, Highways, LAARU and individual awards will be issued to the APs.

VI. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE AND BENEFITS

A. Introduction 89. The projectwillhave two types of affectedpersons i.e.: (i) persons with formal legal rights to land lost in its entirety or in part; and (ii) persons who have neither formal legal rights nor recognized or recognizable claims to such land. The involuntary resettlement requirements apply to both these types of affected persons.

B. Eligibility Criteria

90. In accordance with the involuntary resettlement policy principles of this project, the affected persons falling in any of the following three categories will be eligible for compensation and resettlement assistance: a) those who have formal legal rights to land lost in its entirety or in part (title holders / pattadars); b) those who lost the land they occupy in its entirety or in part and have no formal legal rights to such land, but who have claims to such lands that are recognized or recognizable under national/state laws (forest dwellers); and c) those who lost the land they occupy in its entirety or in part and have neither formal legal rights nor recognized or recognizable claims to such land (non-titled holders such as squatters and encroachers).

91. Cut-off Date: For title holders, the date of preliminary notification of intended acquisition as per the provisions of State lawswill be treated as the cut-off date.

92. The cut-off date for census survey for non-titled holders was March and May 2015 and the implementation of the RP was delayed for around four years. LAARIC has undertaken a census and socio economic data on 22 March, 2019 and the cut-off date for eligibility and entitlement of non-titled holders will be the start date of the census survey by LARRIC. This updated survey will record all non-title holders affected by the project. The cut-off date for non-title holders will be maintained as start date of the census to avoid new occupants in the EROW. Video coverage has also been done to capture all the structures and PAPs within the corridor of impact on the cut-off date.

93. There will be adequate notification and dissemination of the cut-off date and measures will be taken to prevent encroachments/squatting after the cut-off date is established. Non-title holders who settle in the affected areas after the cut-off datewill not be eligible for compensation. They however will be given sufficient advance notice (60 days) to vacate the premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation. The project will recognize both licensed and non-licensed vendors, and titled and non-titled households

36

C. Entitlement Matrix 94. The Entitlement Matrix (EM) for the Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project summarises the types of losses and the corresponding nature and scope of entitlements andis in compliance with National/State Laws, in particular the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 and the Requirements II on Involuntary Resettlement of the Safeguard Policy Statement of the Asian Development Bank, 2009. The entitlement matrix presents the entitlements corresponding to the tenure of the affected persons in the following order:

(i) Impact to private property (title holders) consisting of: (i) loss of private land; (ii) loss of private residential structure; (iii) loss of private commercial structure; (iv) loss of private other structures; (v) impact to tenants (residential / commercial / agricultural) of title holders; and (vi) impact to trees, standing crops, etc; (ii) Impact to Non-title holders consisting of: (i) impact to squatters; and (ii) impact to encroachers; (iii) Loss of employment to agricultural and non-agricultural workers/employees; (iv) Additional assistance to vulnerable affected persons; and (v) Unforeseen impacts

IX.RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

A. Introduction 107. The resettlement cost estimate for theproject does not include compensation for private land as the price to be received from the LARRU to be determined in accordance with RFCTLARR Act and by adopting the multiplying factor adopted in accordance with the State specific multiplication factor12.Budgetary provisionshave been made for the compensation for structure at replacement cost without depreciation, resettlement and Rehabilitation assistances to titleholders in accordance with the RFCTLARR Act and to non-titleholders in accordance with the provisions of the EMofCKICP and the cost of RP implementation, including the cost of resolving grievances. The total resettlement cost for the project is INR Rs.38.76 Million.The major heads of budget items are listed below.

B. Compensation 108. Private Land: The compensation for private land has been calculated as an average of replacement cost of land in rural and semi-urban area adjoining the road corridor. The replacement cost was gathered during census survey in discussion with local community and the elected local body representatives and compared with guideline value from the registration department. For budgetary purpose, the replacement cost for land has been taken as Rs.85.72 per sq.m. being the average rate for rural land from the guideline value. The multiplying factor as per State rules is 1.25, being the maximum that can applied to any land parcel, and is based on the distance from the nearest urban centre. With a 100% solatium and 25% additional value, the land cost works out to be Rs.267.87 per sq.m.

109. Structure: The compensation for structures have been arrived at based on prevailing (year 2018 -19) market rate (the rate shall be updated every year by a panel of engineers in public works department, Govt of Tamil Nadu) for building works, material and labour. Rate fixed for each category along with the quantity is given in table 33. However, at the time of disbursement of the compensation, the competent authority will value each structure to arrive at the replacement cost as per the current rate. The solatium of 100% on structure rate is adopted for titleholders.

C. Assistances 110. All other unit rates as per the minimum provisions contained in RFCTLARR Act and as per the approved EM. For budgeting purpose, the onetime grant of Rs.5,00,000 has been provided for significantly impacted titleholders who would lose one-third of their family income.

D. Compensation for Community Assets and Government Structures 111. The unit cost for the place of worshiphas been budgeted at a lumpsum Rs.3,00,000 to cover the cost of reconstruction. However, the actual cost will be assessed by the Highways Engineer at the time of implementation.

E. RP Implementation Cost 112. The cost of hiring LARRIC for assisting LARRU in RP implementation has been provided with a budget of Rs.39,00,000, for intermittent inputs and the RP implementation is expected to be completed in 24 months including disbursement of compensation and Rehabilitation and

12G.O.Ms. No 300 of Revenue and Disaster Management (LA-I(1)) dated 21.09.2017 51 resettlement assistance for land acquired under RFCTLARR Act. A budgetary cost for external monitoring and evaluation has also been envisaged, as this projectis a Category-A for IR, a budgetary provision of Rs.11,00,000 has been made available for hiring of a consultant for the same. The budgetary provision for meeting administrative expenses is included as part of the project cost. A lumpsum provision of Rs.5,00,000 towards grievance redressal mechanism related expenses has been budgeted. Further, a lump sum provision of Rs.50,000 to meet disclosure expenses and a lump sum provision of Rs.2,00,000/- for staff training, in particular theLARRU and LARRICstaff involved in RP implementation, has also been budgeted.

F. Source of Funding and Fund Flow 113. The Government will provide adequate budget for all land acquisition compensations, R&R assistances and RP implementation costs from the counterpart funding. The funds as estimated in the budget for a financial year and additional fund required based on revised estimates, shall be available at the disposal of the jurisdictional Divisional Engineer (Highways)at the beginning of the financial year and from whom LARRU will draw the required funds. The PD, Chennai Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor Project (CKICP), Highways Department being the EA for this project, will provide necessary funds for compensation for land and structure and the cost of resettlement assistances in a timely manner to the jurisdictional Divisional Engineer (Highways). The DE(H) will ensure timely availability of funds with the LARRU for smooth implementation of the RP. The LARRIC under the LARRU will facilitate disbursements, but the responsibility of ensuring full and timely payment to displaced persons will be that of LARRU.

G. Resettlement Budget Estimates 114. The budget for this project is based on data and information collected during census and socio-economic surveys conducted during March 2019. The unit rates for structure has been worked out from the PWD plinth area rates for 2018-19. The total budget for LA, RR and implementation cost is estimated at Rs.38.76 Million. A detailed budget estimate for the Project is given along with item wise cost break-up in the following table.

H. Disbursement of Compensation and Assistances 115. In order to ensure that: (i) the DP need not make frequent visits to his/her bank for depositing the physical paper instruments; (ii) s/he need not apprehend loss of instrument and fraudulent encashment; and (iii) the delay in realization of proceeds after receipt of paper instrument is obviated, all disbursement of compensation for land and structure and R&R assistances shall be done only through Electronic Clearing Service (ECS) mechanism and charges for ECS, if any, will be borne by LARRU. If the DPs destination branch does not have the facility to receive ECS (Credit), then the disbursement shall be done through respective lead banks’ IFSC (Indian Financial System Code). Payment through account payee cheques will be made only if payment trough ECS is not possible and no cash payment will be made.

116. The LARRIC and LARRU, while collecting bank particulars from the APs, will also check with the respective bank branches if the branch HasECS (Credit) mechanism, and if not, details of lead bank offering the facility will be collected to facilitate ECS transfer. Wherever new accounts are to be opened, preference will be given to bank’s having ECS (Credit) facility. The LARRIC will check the type of APs bank account and help the AP to convert the bank account to a regular savings bank account, if it is of Jan Dhan type, to enable receive compensation, Rehabilitation and resettlement assistances.The bank account particulars of the AP as part of the micro plan will be submitted to the jurisdictional Resettlement Officer (RSO) for disbursement.

X. GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL MECHANISM

A. Introduction

117. A project-specific grievance redress mechanism (GRM) will be established to receive, evaluate and facilitate the resolution of affected people’s concerns, complaints and grievances about the social and environmental performance at different levels of the project. The GRM will aim to provide a time-bound and transparentmechanism to voice and resolve social and environmental concerns linked to the project. The project-specific GRM is not intended to bypass the government’s own redress process, rather it is intended to address affected people's concerns and complaints promptly, making it readily accessible to all segments of the affected people and is scaled to the risks and impacts of the project. The PAPs are free to approach the judicial system at any time. B. Grievance Redressal Committee 118. The Grievance Redressal Mechanism(GRM) will be composed of two Grievance Redress Committees (GRCs), one at the Project level (Project-Level GRC), and the other at the local level (local-level GRC). The GRCs’ role is to receive, evaluate and facilitate the resolution of affected persons concerns, complaints and grievances. The GRMwill provide an opportunity to the PAPs to have their grievances redressed prior to approaching the State level LARR Authority13, constituted by Government of Tamil Nadu in accordance with Section 51(1) of the RFCTLARR Act, 2013. The GRMis aimed to provide a trusted way to voice and resolve concerns linked to the project, and to be an effective way to address affected person’s concerns without allowing it to escalate resulting in delays in project implementation.

119. The GRMwill continue to function, for the benefit of the APs, during the entire life of the project including the defects liability period. The response time prescribed for the GRCs would be three weeks. Since the entire resettlement component of the project has to be completed before the construction starts, to resolve the pending grievances, the GRC, at regional level, will meet at least once every month in the first year of the RP implementation and once in three months thereafter. Other than disputes relating to ownership rights and apportionment issues on which the LARR Authority has jurisdiction, the GRCs will review grievances involving eligibility, valuation, all resettlement and Rehabilitation benefits, relocation and payment of assistances. Grievances received by the Special DRO, LARRU will be resolved at his/her level, if possible, else it will be placed before the GRC.

120. Local-level: The local levels GRCs will function out of Tirunelveli and Thoothukudi Districts. The 4-member local GRCs will be caired by (i) a retired District Revenue Officer (DRO) or equivalent rank officer, the (ii) Divisional Engineer, Highways, CKICPacting as its member secretary and a (iii) Revenue Divisional Officer of the Division concened, iv) a local person of repute and standing in the society, nominated by the Project Director, CKICP based on the recommendations made by the respective District Collector. Grievances/concerns can be lodged directly to the DE, Highways, CKICPor submitted to the LARRIC/agency appointed for implementation support, either in person or through post or through email.

XIII.MONITORING AND REPORTING

A. Introduction 151. The objective of monitoring is to provide the PIU and LARRU with an effective tool for assessing Rehabilitation progress, identifying potential difficulties and problems areas and provide an early warning system for areas that need correction. Continuous supervision and periodic monitoring are an integral part of successful implementation. Monitoring is a warning system for project managers and a channel for the APs to express their needs and reactions to the programme.

B. Internal Monitoring 152. The Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Unlit (LARRU) will carry out concurrent monitoring of RP implementation through the RSO, LARRUand prepare monthly and quarterly progress report in terms of physical and financial progress. In addition, the monitoring process will also look into: the communication and reactions of APs; use of grievance procedures; information dissemination to APs on benefits; and implementation time table. The monthly internal monitoring reports based on the outcome of consultations and feedback with displaced people who have received assistance and compensation and review of progress of other implementation activates including complains/concerns/issues raised by the APs, will be submitted to PIU by the end of 1st week of the subsequent calendar month. The progress report will be reviewed by the CE, PIU and comments if any, will be communicated to LARRU for immediate action.

153. A copy of the quarterly report will be made available to ADB. In view of the significance of resettlement impacts, the monitoring mechanism for this project will have both monitoring by LARRU and monitoring by an external agency / expert.

C. External Monitoring 154. A external monitoring agency will be recruited by the EA under ADB financing. The team will be composed of a team leader experienced in resettlement and land acquisition, and three key experts, in additional to support and field staff. The external monitoring will include but not limited to: (i) assess the RPs’ implementation and compliance with ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009); (ii) review and verify the monitoring reports prepared by LARRU; (iii) monitor the work carried out by LARRIC and provide training and guidance on implementation; (vi) review the grievance redressal mechanism and report on its working; (v) mid-term impact assessment through sample surveys amongst displaced persons for midterm corrective action; (vi) consultation with APs, officials, community leaders for preparing review report; (vii) assess the resettlement efficiency, effectiveness and efficiency of LARRU, impact and sustainability, and drawing lessons for future resettlement policy formulation and planning. Some of the important task of external monitoring is the feedback of the APs who receives compensation and assistance and also alerts on the risks, non-compliances and early warnings in the implementing.

D. Indicative Indicators
