EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A. Project Description and Background

1. The North Karnataka Urban Sector Investment Program (NKUSIP) proposes to improve the environmental quality of the urban areas through better urban infrastructure facilities and thus improve living conditions of the urban people. Yadgir City Municipal Corporation (YCMC) is one of the program towns under NKUSIP. It is proposed to lay trunk sewer for a length of 13.8 km along with sub main and laterals for a length of 62.3 km totaling 76 km. for design life of 30 years. In addition to sewer lines, 7.5 MLD STP with FAL technology is also established at M.Hosalli village of Yadgir City Municipal Council for 2026. Subsequently units of smaller capabilities can be added to cater to meet the demand of Yadgir City Municipal Corporation for 2041.

2. This is planned to be implemented in Tranche 3 of NKUSIP targeting to meet the demand for the year 2041 and the proposed Sewage Treatment Plant is near M. Hosalli village of Yadgir, CMC, in the survey no. of 109/a,111/a,111/aa,112/a,112aa,112e,168/3. The acquiring of 22.25 acres of land required for construction of STP and wet well.

B. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement

3. The land proposed for the project is under process of acquisition. The 6(1) notification is issued on dated 25-11-2010 and General Award issued on 11.07.2011 for 22.25 acres for the proposed STP and Wet well. This proposed land is belongs to 7 families, affecting 37 persons who have continued cultivation in the land.

4. To assess the resettlement impact of project the Socio-Economic survey was conducted on 29th and 31st of July 2010 to collect the data from all the 7 title holders as per 6(1) notification. Out of 7 title holders 6 title holders are cultivating the land in the proposed STP land and one land proposed for Wet well is not an agriculture land. The 7 affected households comprise of 37 persons. The affected owners grow both food crops and commercial crops like Jowar, tur, green gram and cotton. 6 out of 7 affected families found to be Above Poverty Line (APL). There are two Women headed Households, out of which one family belongs to BPL. The Socio - Economic condition of the PAPs are illustrated in Chapter-2 of this report. As the main income source of the PAPs is agriculture and subsidiary occupation details are given in table no.4. Livelihood source of 6 affected households will be affected due to this project. As all the 7 families are affected by the project, the impact of the project will be same for all families and the assistance for loss of land and standing crops and subsistence allowance will be the same.

C. Objectives, Policy Framework and Entitlements

5. This Short Resettlement Plan is prepared to deal with the resettlement impact resulting from Construction of the Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), near M.Hosalli village of Yadgir, CMC. The primary objective of this SRP is to restore the loss of income and living standards of the Affected Persons (APs) due to implementation of the project within a short period of time without any disruptions in their own economic and social environment.

6. As the land for the project is under acquiring process by CMC, Yadgir, the review of the land acquisition acts is relevant here the RP has been prepared in accordance to the R&R policy framework approved for NKUSIP, which demands ensuring the rehabilitation of all project affected persons irrespective of their title. The project policy framework ensures full participation of PAPs in planning and implementation of RP.

D. Gender Impact and Mitigative Measures

7. A gender analysis was undertaken for the project during the social assessment study to look into the current status and needs of the affected women in the sub-project area and the potential impact of the project on them through discussions with the women. It was found that 2 households are women headed household in the proposed land.

E. Information Dissemination, Consultation, disclosure and grievance redress

8. The SRP has been prepared in consultation with seven affected families. Discussions were held involving stakeholders, particularly with affected households to determine the potential impact. PAPs expressed their willingness to vacate the land provided that the compensation to be paid in far with the market rate.. The RP will be disclosed in ADB’s and KUIDFC’s website, and information dissemination and consultation will continue throughout program implementation.

F. Grievance Redressal Mechanisms

9. NKUSIP has worked out institutional arrangements for redressing the grievances of the PAPs in the project. The first level of screening of grievances shall be undertaken by the implementing NGO and DO, Gulbarga. Only major grievances shall be placed before the GRC (will be constituted as per the guide line). The GRC will determine the merit of each grievance and attempt to resolve the same within a month from the date of lodging of complaints, failing which the grievance shall be addressed to the Deputy Commissioner, Yadgir. The GRC shall forward grievances of serious nature immediately on receipt of complaint to the Deputy Commissioner. The DC will hear appeals against the decision of GRC. The decision of DC is final and cannot be contested in any place except in the courts of law.

G. Compensation Relocation and Income Restoration

10. The land proposed for the project is under acquisition by CMC, Yadgir. However, the resettlement and rehabilitation of project affected persons is to be ensured. As per the ADB’s involuntary resettlement policy all the APs are entitled to get the resettlement benefits irrespective to their title. As far as this project is concerned the project affected persons are eligible to get mainly four type of assistance (i) Assistance for standing crops (If advance notice can not be provided), (ii) Subsistence Allowance for one cropping cycle in case of seasonal crops (iii) Subsistence Allowance & Training allowance based on three months minimum wages of Rs 150 per day is considered. However the minimum wage in Karnataka for agricultural works is to paid for vulnerable families. And (iv) Assistance for purchase of Income generating assets, maximum for vulnerable PAPs

H. Institutional Framework

11. Karnataka Urban infrastructure Development & Finance Corporation (KUIDFC) is the nodal executing agency (EA) responsible for implementing NKUSIP. KUIDFC is a fully owned GoK company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956. KUIDFC has already handled projects funded by multilateral financial institutions (MFIs) and is fully aware of MFIs financial management, accounting, reporting and disbursement policies and procedures. KUIDFC has a Social Development Officer, who is a qualified sociologist. As far as institutional arrangement of this sub project is concerned NKUSIP will be appointing some external agencies to work with the- respective offices of the NKUSIP, (i) an apex NGO, who will be transferring the knowledge and skills to smaller NGOs and monitoring of their work while implementing the RP (ii) An NGO will be appointed for acting as Public Awareness Consultants for Community Awareness and Participation Program (CAPP), who will prepare and implement a communications strategy (iii) Implementing NGOs, each ULB will be engaging the services of an NGO with experience in social/gender development and with a track record in resettlement and rehabilitation for RP implementation and the Deputy Project Director and implementation officers of ULB will be coordinating and monitoring the resettlement activities.

K. Monitoring and Evaluation

14. Monitoring involves periodic checking to ascertain whether activities are progressing according to RP. Monitoring will cover physical and financial components and provides a feedback to keep the program on schedule. RP implementation will be closely monitored to provide PMU with an effective basis for assessing resettlement progress and identifying potential difficulties and problems. For monitoring and evaluation (M&E), IPMU will appoint an independent agency/Apex NGO to undertake external monitoring for the entire sub-project. The independent agency/Apex NGO will monitor the sub-project on a half yearly basis and submit its reports directly to the PMU. The PMU will submit all M & E reports to the ADB for review. (ULB officials will carry out internal monitoring, Internal monitoring will track indicators such as the number of families affected; resettled; assistance extended, infrastructure facilities provided, financial aspects, such as compensation paid, grant extended etc.

I. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

A. Introduction

1. The Investment Program will facilitate economic growth in 25 selected towns of North Karnataka and bring about urban development by means of equitable distribution of urban services in an environmentally sound and operationally sustainable manner. Tranche III improvements focus on rehabilitation and construction of water supply, sewage, slum improvements and procurement of firefighting and emergency services equipment as well as other lake development. Yadgir subprojects include water supply, sewage, slum improvements and firefighting and emergency services equipment. The Investment Program is designed to minimize land acquisition and resettlement impacts.

B. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement

2. The Project is designed and planned to minimize land acquisition and ensure resettlement impacts. Subprojects/ components involving construction of water supply, sewage and sanitation systems are planned on vacant government land wherever possible, and any rehabilitation is proposed within the existing facilities’ premises to avoid land acquisition and resettlement. Overall impacts will be further minimized through careful siting and alignment during detailed design and subproject implementation.

3. The Yadgir subproject falls under Category B as per ADB Policy. Permanent land acquisition is required for a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP). The total area of private agricultural land requires acquisition is 22.00 acres is farm land and 0.25 acres of non farm commercially developed land. As indicated by this RP, the extent of land acquisition is not significant and covers 07 households. The RP was prepared in accordance with the agreed upon Resettlement Framework (RF).

4. Table 1 provides the summary of the resettlement impacts. Table 2 provides a summary of the sub-project components and land acquisition requirements. Table 3 provides a detailed summary of land acquisition and ownership. Table 4 provides socio economic data of affected persons. Land proposed for acquisition for STP at Yadgir will be farm lands of 22 acres and 0.25 acres of developed land with no structures or illegal settlers in it. The land accounts to part of the holdings of title-holders. APs in M.Hosalli are characterized as follows: (i) one agriculture title holder belongs to vulnerable households (BPL household and also a women headed household), one woman headed household is also considered as vulnerable household although belong to Above Poverty Line. Table 5 provides extent and %age of land acquired. Table-6 indicates check list followed for identification of IPs. All other 5 APs belong to APL households (ii) 4-8 are seasonal farm laborers. The RP includes socio-economic profiles of the affected persons and provides for appropriate compensation/mitigation measures for loss of land, crops, and income in accordance with the entitlement matrix (Table 7). Table -8 provides summery compensation details. Table -9 provides compensation details and Table-10 provides tentative Implementation schedule. No permanent or temporary land acquisition is anticipated for the laying of distribution networks as these are proposed within the boundaries of existing roads. The temporary impacts if any will be finalized during detailed design and minimized through careful siting, alignment, and site sensitive construction practices during subproject implementation.

II. SOCIO-ECONOMIC INFORMATION/PROFILE OF AFFECTED PEOPLE

A. Household Details and Social Structure

5. The land proposed for STP and Wet well for the Yadgir sub-project is located in survey no 111, 109, 112, 168, Near M.Hosalli village which is owned by 7 households (APs). The socio economic survey of these affected households were carried out in the month of July 2010 and updated after the JMC i.e. after confirming the exact extent of land acquired from each title holder. 6(1) notification is issued on 25-11-2010. Table 4 provides the socio economic data of the 37 APs (7 title holders). Five families of affected landowners have nuclear family and two are in joint family. The proposed acquisition affects 7 households and 37 persons. The average size of the family of the affected household sizeis 5/6. Amongst these, six families are Hindu and one belongs to Muslim. There are no Indigenous groups identified. The head of the entire affected household are educated and possess ration cards. All eligible members of the households are included in the voters list. At the time of survey Land records were verified to check and confirm the ownership. Two land owners indicated that Government should give the land for land or consider to compensating with the existing market price of the area. Some land owners believe that the land proposed for acquisition will fetch them a good market price as the land is very near to the city i.e. farther by only 3 kms from Yadgir which the Head Quarter is of newly formed District.

B. Household Size, Sex, and Gender

6. The average of family size amongst the surveyed affected households (AH)size is 5/6. The seven affected households with 37 members, 19 are male and 18 are female. Out of 7 affected households, 3 families in M. Hosalli Village, 2 families in Yadgir town and 2 families in Gulbarga City ,living in their own houses.

C. Gender Impacts.

7. The NKUSIP is designed to have a positive impact on women, resulting from better service delivery systems in Sewage system facilities at the city level and in low income/below poverty line households. Two piece of land proposed for acquisition belongs to women/female headed households. However the proposed land acquisition will not have any potential impacts on female members of affected households. The socio-economic status of households affected by the acquisition of land will not have direct negative impacts, on women.

D. Vulnerable Groups

8. Two affected household qualifies as vulnerable under the project and as these households are women headed households. And all other affected households surveyed belong to above the poverty line (APL). The Urban Poverty line for entire Urban Karnataka as prescribed by the Swarna Jayanthi Shahari Rozgar Yojane (National Poverty Alleviation Programme) and followed by the ULBs is Rs. 23,124/- , which is considered as Poverty Line Income. According to Table 4, the annual income of the affected APL household is Rs 24200/annum

E. Unit Costs for Land

9. The cost per acre of land at the location proposed for STP and wet well is considered as per the General Award the details is given in Annexure-B.

F. Income and Occupational Pattern

10. Amongst the population in seven households, twenty two are non-working and remaining fifteen are working. Out of fifteen working members, two are Government employees working as teachers, one is a doctor and another is lecturer in engineering college. Three are holding business and remaining are agriculturists.

11. Economic details of farmers of land in Survey no. 111/a, 111/aa, 109/a, 112/a,112/aa,112/e and 168/3 have been gathered. Three families have taken up agriculture as their primary occupation and are presently cultivating the land proposed for acquisition. The entire land proposed for STP (22 acres) is rain fed and the grow crops like Jowar, Tur, Green gram and Cotton annually. The land proposed for Wet well (0.25) is agricultural land. The land owner raises Jowar, Tur, Green Gram and Cotton, annually.

G. Seasonal Laborers

12. The discussion with the land farmers who cultivate the land revealed that they engage about 4-10 part-time/seasonal agriculture labors for farm operations. It is found that land proposed for acquisition is being cultivated and entire 22 acres are found with farm activity. However, Yadgir ULB would make all efforts to acquire the land during non-harvesting or post harvesting period, to minimize impacts on agricultural labor in the Investment Program site. Also, advanced notice will be provided, to the extent possible, for seasonal laborers in order to provide them sufficient time to seek alternative farming opportunities. Seasonal labors are considered transient, therefore not working in the same plot year to year. Impacts to these people is therefore considered limited

H. Crop Loan

13. None of the land owners whose land is proposed to be acquired has availed institutional assistance / finance for growing crops.

I. Consultations with APs

14. The Yadgir STP location was determined based on a detailed topographic survey & further consultation with City Municipal council, Yadgir. The Yadgir ULB then identified the survey numbers. A socio-economic survey was conducted for land owners of identified survey numbers.

J. Cut-Off Date

15. A socio-economic survey was conducted to determine the likely impacts of land acquisition. The survey also helped confirm the Resettlement Framework and Entitlement Matrix. However, the date of 4 (1) notice issued date to Landowners about the Yadgir sub- project and land acquisition will be considered as cut-off date to finalize the compensation and list of APs. Any person who was not enumerated but can show documentation or evidence that he/she is rightfully an entitled person will be included in the list of APs. The Program Management Unit (PMU) is responsible for such verification and adjustment.

III. OBJECTIVE, FRAMEWORK AND ENTITLEMENTS

16. The NKUSIP Resettlement Framework outlines the objectives, principles and procedures for land acquisition, compensation and other assistance measures for affected persons. For the formulation of this Short Resettlement Plan (RP), the resettlement principles outlined in the Resettlement Framework (RF) are adopted:

(i) Involuntary resettlement should be avoided whenever feasible. (ii) Where population displacement is unavoidable, it should be minimized by providing viable livelihood options. (iii) If individuals or a community must lose all or part of their land, means of livelihood, or social support systems, so that a project might proceed, they will be compensated and assisted through replacement of land, housing, infrastructure, resources, income sources, and services, in cash or kind, so that their economic and social circumstances will be at least restored to the pre-project level. All compensation is based on the principle of replacement cost. (iv) Each involuntary resettlement is conceived and executed as part of a development project or program. The Aps need to be provided with sufficient resources to reestablish their livelihoods and homes with time-bound action in co-ordination with civil works. (v) The affected people are to be fully informed and closely consulted. Affected people are to be identified and recorded as early as possible in order to establish their eligibility through a population record or census that serves as an eligibility cutoff date, preferably at the project identification stage, to prevent a subsequent influx of encroachers or others who wish to take advantage of such benefits. (vi) Institutions of the affected people, and, where relevant, of their hosts, are to be protected and supported. Affected people are to be assisted to integrate economically and socially into host communities so that adverse impacts on the host communities are minimized and social harmony is promoted. (vii) The absence of a formal title to land is not a bar to ADB policy entitlements. (viii) Affected people are to be identified and recorded as early as possible in order to establish their eligibility through a population record or census that serves as an eligibility cutoff date, preferably at the project identification stage, to prevent a subsequent influx of encroachers or others who wish to take advantage of such benefits.

(ix) Particular attention must be paid to the needs of the poorest affected people, and vulnerable groups that may be at high risk of impoverishment. This may include those without legal title to land or other assets, households headed by females, the elderly or disabled and other vulnerable groups, particularly indigenous peoples. Appropriate assistance must be provided to help them improve their socio-economic status. (x) The full resettlement costs are to be included in the presentation of project costs and benefits.

17. Entitlements. The entitlement matrix provides guidance for compensation, resettlement, and rehabilitation assistance planning. Lack of title / customary rights recognized under law will not be a bar to entitlement. Hence, non-titled encroachers and squatters as well as indigenous or other groups with customary rights over land or resources, if present in the project area, will be eligible for compensation (the Entitlement Matrix provides additional entitlements to vulnerable person).

18. However, people moving into the project area after the cut-off date are not entitled to compensation or other assistance. The Entitlement Matrix lists various types of losses, identification/eligibility and entitlements and provides basic parameters for preparation of compensation and resettlement benefits. The Entitlement Matrix provides for all possible categories of losses to ensure that all resettlement impacts of all sub-project components to be finalized during detailed design will be addressed. The Entitlement Matrix is provided below.

Any person who was not enumerated but can show documentation or evidence that he/she is rightfully an entitled person will be included in the list of APs. The Program Management Unit (PMU) is responsible for such verification and adjustment. 4 Subsistence allowance is a transitional allowance for APs provided for utilization/consumption until an alternate source of livelihood is obtained. 5 Shifting assistance will be a one-time payment decided based on the amount of material/assets to be shifted and the distance.

IV. CONSULTATION AND GRIEVANCE REDRESS PARTICIPATION

A. Information Dissemination, Consultation, and Disclosure Requirement

19. A consultation program was conducted with all APs. Yadgir ULB officials and consultants disclosed the information about the Investment Program and the sub project proposed in Yadgir. Suitability of identified land. A majority of the affected landowners were in fact aware about the project need as part of their land will be acquired. However, landowners expressed interest in knowing the procedures for land acquisition and the approximate amount of compensation which will be offered to them under the Investment Program. It was communicated during consultations that the Yadgir ULB will disclose all relevant information about land acquisition to APs, and that it is mandatory under the Investment Program.

20. Consultations with APs indicate that the APs wanted compensation that will permit them to buy land of similar area and potential in the open market and possibly involve similar commuting patterns and costs as the land to be acquired. All APs indicated preference for cash compensation as per present market rate or land-for-land option.

21. Further, during SRP implementation, the implementing Non Governmental Organization (NGO) will ensure each AP is consulted to inform them about the outcome of the decision-

making process, and confirm how their views were incorporated in sub-project design. Copies of the Resettlement Framework and SRP will be made available both in English and Kannada at the Yadgir ULB Office for reference. The SRP shall be brought to the notice of all APs with the help of the implementing NGO. The Executing Agency (EA) will prepare a resettlement booklet elaborating AP entitlements and the sub-project implementation timetable.

B. Grievance Redressal Mechanisms

22. A Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC) will be formed to ensure that grievances are addressed in a timely manner, facilitating timely project implementation. The GRC will comprise representatives from APs (ensuring representation of vulnerable households), local government/Yadgir ULB, Investment Program Officials – Deputy Project Director of NKUSIP, and NGOs/ community based organizations (CBOs). The GRC will redress grievances at the local-level in a consultative manner and with the participation of the affected households, or their representatives. GRC meetings will be convened as necessary to address complaints as they arise. The time and date of GRC meetings will be announced to APs by the implementing NGO and RO a week in advance. To further ensure GRC accessibility to APs, the implementing NGO and RO will inform APs on grievance Redressal procedures, the functions of the GRC, and how to access the GRC. The grievance Redressal process is shown in Figure 1. The first level of screening of grievances shall be undertaken by the implementing NGO and the Yadgir ULB Resettlement Officer (RO). Only major grievances shall be placed before the GRC. The GRC will determine the merit of each grievance and attempt to resolve the same within a month from the date of lodging of complaints, failing which the grievance shall be addressed to the Deputy Commissioner (DC). The GRC shall forward grievances of serious nature immediately on receipt of complaint to the DC. The DC will hear appeals against the decisions of GRC. The decision of DC is final and cannot be contested in any other forum except in the Court of Law. All costs incurred in resolving the complaints will be borne by the Yadgir ULB.

V. COMPENSATION AND INCOME RESTORATION

A. Compensation

23. All Affected Persons will be entitled to resettlement and rehabilitation benefits as per the Entitlement Matrix. In case of land acquisition, the replacement cost will form the compensation. Loss of income/livelihood will be compensated within the overall resettlement package. In case APs had taken institutional loan and it remains as outstanding until the time of acquisition, a portion will be deducted from the total compensation towards loan, and the rest will be settled in a phased-manner, in consultation with the AP.

24. Payment of land price and other approved package of assistance will be made to the titleholder through the issuance of a bank cheque to ensure a transparent disbursement process. The cheque will be issued by the AC, after the Gulbarga ULB deposits the amount with the AC. Payment to APs is to be latest before commencement of civil works.

B. Income Restoration

25. APs affected by permanent land acquisition for the proposed STP sites have been identified. The Investment Program will provide the affected household’s subsistence/transitional allowance for three months based on minimum wages and will provide free transport facilities/shifting assistance and from these families one family belongs to vulnerability so this family will get the additional compensation. Since all the land to be acquired from the APs is a source of income, APs will be provided assistance for lost income based on three months minimum wage rates. Land is proposed for acquisition during the non cropping season, to minimize the negative economic impacts on APs.

26. These APs have been consulted during the socio-economic survey. The will identify if land-for-land compensation is feasible for 22.25 acres (for 2041) of land compensation is feasible will provide the option to APs. Implementing NGOs will also provide information to households on available land in the community. Should APs acquire replacement land; the Yadgir ULB will provide all fees, taxes, and other charges incurred for the replacement land. If the AP decides on replacement land, an income restoration strategy will focus on restoring agricultural activity previously undertaken by the AP, and assistance in productivity improvements (such as provision of agricultural inputs required for improved yields, and training on improved post-harvest practices) production.

27. APs for other components of the sub-project which are anticipated to experience temporary impacts from laying of pipes and road improvement will be provided assistance in restoring their income in accordance with the Entitlement Matrix. Income restoration schemes will be designed in consultation with APs. Income restoration schemes will be tailored to the needs, capabilities and preferences of APs, and the absorptive capacity of the local economy. The Strategy for Income Restoration will be prepared prior to land acquisition.

28. The Investment Program will provide APs with (i) subsistence/transitional allowance, and (ii) shifting assistance to restore the APs income in the very short-term. Beyond the very short- term, the Investment Program will restore the APs source of income prior to land acquisition, and/or increase existing sources of income.

VI. INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK

29. Effective Short Resettlement Plan preparation and implementation will be ensured through coordination between Yadgir District Authorities, the Yadgir ULB as requisitioning authority and the PMU. The Yadgir ULB will have the responsibility of ensuring that SRPs are finalized and approved prior to award of contracts for the sub-project, and for monitoring any changes to project design, which may require re-evaluation of the need for and adequacy of the SRP. The Yadgir ULB will hire an experienced NGO to assist in the preparation and implementation of the SRP. The Implementing NGO’s main activities will include AP counseling and encouraging productive utilization of compensation and rehabilitation grants. The Terms of Reference (ToR) for the implementing NGO is given. The Yadgir ULB will also designate a Tahsildar as RO to supervise and conduct internal monitoring of the implementation work. The RO will be adequately supported by the DLVC in terms of all valuations, due diligence carried out on affected persons’ properties and Empowered Committee decision on acquisition.

30. The PMU will ensure that the land acquisition and rehabilitation processes followed under the Investment Program comply with ADB’s Involuntary Resettlement Policy. The Investment Program consultant (PC) appointed by PMU will undertake the census and detailed socio-economic surveys. A Special Land Acquisition Officer (Revenue Department) at the PMU will monitor the process of SRP implementation. Figure. 2. Illustrate the SRP implementation arrangements.

VIII. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

32. All land has to be provided free of any encumbrances before the start of civil work. All land acquisition and resettlement of APs is to be completed before the award of civil contracts. The implementation process will cover (i) identification of cut-off date and notification; (ii) verification of properties of APs and estimation of their type and level of losses and distribution of identity cards; (iii) consultations with APs to address their needs, and priorities; and (iv) economic rehabilitation of the APs.

33. Timing of Resettlement, The number of permanently affected households in the sub- project is seven and the process of LA and resettlement is expected to be completed within a maximum period of seven months from the date of notification. APs will have to be given sufficient notice to vacate their property before civil works begin. No civil works will begin till APs receives the approved compensation package, a broad implementation schedule for resettlement and rehabilitation.

34. Land Acquisition. Civil works are linked with the completion of land acquisition. In this case all land transfers from the Government have to be completed. Depending on the ownership, the Yadgir ULB would need to coordinate with the relevant Government of Karnataka Department – in this case the DC’s office and the Revenue Department.

35. Affected Person’s Identity Card, All eligible APs will be issued identity cards, giving details of the type of losses and type of entitlements. This card will be verified by IPMU, NGO and the AP, and signed by all parties. Each AP will be given a copy. The IPMU should issue identity cards to all APs, at the earliest possible time to ensure that opportunistic squatters and encroachers are not encouraged.

IX. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

36. The implementing NGO will submit quarterly reports to PMU. Yadgir ULB officials will carry out internal monitoring. Job charts will be given to the RO. The job charts will indicate the targets to be achieved during the month. Monthly progress report shall be prepared and submitted to IPMU, reporting actual achievements against the targets fixed in their respective job charts and reasons for shortfalls, if any. SRP implementation will be closely monitored to provide IPMU with an effective basis for assessing resettlement progress and identifying

24 potential difficulties and problems. For monitoring and evaluation (M&E), the PMU will appoint an independent agency/Apex NGO to undertake external monitoring for the entire sub-project (this agency will provide an independent view of the Investment Program progress and should not be confused with the implementing NGO appointed by the Yadgir ULB to oversee Investment Program implementation). The independent agency/Apex NGO will conduct mid term review and review on completion of SRP activities and submit its reports directly to the PMU. The PMU will submit all M&E reports to the ADB for review.
