1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

1. The Government of Pakistan has identified road infrastructure as prerequisite for sustained economic growth and poverty alleviation. The government development priorities have been formulated in the form of “National Trade Corridor Improvement Program”. The program focus on regional connectivity through improving linkages with the neighbouring countries, developing inter provincial linkages to improve sub regional connectivity and construction of a North South Expressway Trade Corridor to overcome the network deficit.

2. National Highway Authority (NHA) is implementing National Highway Development Sector Investment Program (NHDSIP) with the assistance of Asian Development Bank (ADB) through a multi-tranche financing facility through which separate multiple loans will be extended to finance a range of subprojects. The subprojects under Tranche 1 have been completed. The Loan 2540 for Tranche 2 was signed on 3 September 2009 which became effective on 21 September, 2009.

3. The Sukkur–Jacobabad road is one of the subprojects of this tranche1. The Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plan (LARP) for Sukkur–Jacobabad was approved by ADB in May 2009. However, discrepancies were observed in the number of project affected persons and the related impacts during the physical verification of LARP by ADB through an independent consultant in May 2010. ADB required that the LARP should be updated to ensure that all APs are included and all the impacts are properly analysed.

4. Before the LARP could be updated the project highway was extensively damaged by the floods. A meeting was held at ADB Resident Mission, Islamabad on 26th August, 2010 to discuss the contract signing and pending safeguard requirements. It was agreed that NHA will provide the section wise construction plan along with a linear road map indicating areas and stretches of road with and without LAR impacts and an action plan on dated 26-08-10 Land Acquisition and Resettlement (LAR) requirements with first requirement being the preparation, approval, implementation and monitoring of section wise LARP with the section NHA wants to construct first. The minutes of meeting were communicated with ADB letter dated 30 August reiterating that the civil works will commence, with prior approval of ADB Safeguard Team, only when the LARP for the section is fully implemented and verified by the External Monitoring Agency (EMA).

1.2 The Project

5. Road Sukkur–Jacobabad N-65 is an important interprovincial highway connecting Quetta, the capital city of Baluchistan with the province of Sindh, Punjab and the port city of Karachi. A 68km section of this road is planned for up gradation and improvement of Section of this highway between Sukkur–Jacobabad. The scope of work include i) rehabilitation & capacity up gradation of the existing road section (63 km) between Sukkur–Jacobabad to 4-lane dual carriageway, and ii) constructing a bypass for Shikarpur (5 km) city.

6. For the purpose of widening of the existing road into four lanes highway with an adequate available ROW (i.e. 35 m wide) owned by NHA from Sukkur–Shikarpur and Shikarpur–Jacobabad, where no land acquisition is involved, however, the ROW has been encroached by the locals at many places, who have to be compensated in accordance with the entitlement criterion and compensation matrix prepared under the

1. This tranche includes, (i) Sukkur–Jacobabad, and (ii) Qilla Saifullah–Zhob.

Land Acquisition & Resettlement Framework agreed with ADB. The measuring of 35.5 acres of land has to be acquired for 4.9 km long Shikarpur Bypass which falls in Section- 2, for which adequate funds were deposited with the District Treasury in 2006 and disbursement of compensation to the extent of Land Costs, is in progress.. However disbursements of entitled compensations to the entitled encroachers throughout road corridor falling within Section-IV are to be made through project account. The sufficient Funds have been made available in Project account to ensure timely disbursement of the entitled compensations.

7. National Highway Authority (NHA) is currently implementing two major road sector projects with the financial assistance of Asian Development Bank through Multi Tranche Financing Facilities (MFF). The National Highway Development Sector Investment Program (NHDSIP) is one of them, which includes 7 major roads.2 The Sukkur–Jacobabad (N-65) is one of the seven roads including one bypass (Shikarpur Bypass). The implementation of these projects will be subjected to the compliance of Social Safeguards of ADB. The ADB Policy on "Involuntary Land Acquisition & Resettlement” requires preparation and implementation of "Land Acquisition & Resettlement Plans (LARP)", and finally conducting its independent monitoring (IM).

8. The construction of dual carriage way from Sukkur–Shikarpur-Jacobabad road is a step towards strengthening and expansion of the road network. Its total length is 63 km and one bypass of 4.9 km. It is a 4 lanes dual carriageway road. The project involved land acquisition and other associated impacts such as loss of structures, loss of squatters-business, relocation of community infrastructure, loss of crops and finally loss of trees especially wood trees. Accordingly, the NHA through hiring the consultancy services of NESPAK has prepared Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plan (LARP) in May 2009, which have specified and quantified the impacts of the project, eligibility and entitlements for compensation through establishing institutional arrangements and setting of redressal of community grievances.

9. Sukkur to Jacobabad Section of N-65 passes through the districts of Sukkur, Shikarpur and Jacobabad of Sindh Province and links the province of Sindh with Punjab and Baluchistan. Major settlements along the road are Shikarpur City and many villages, i.e. Soomar, Sheikh Suleman, Lakhi, Jahaan Khan and Sultan kot, Hamayun etc. The whole project road falls under the administrative jurisdiction of Sukkur, Jacobabad and Shikarpur Districts of Sindh Province. The project starts from Sukkur Bus stand and ends at starting point of Jacobabad. There is already existing 2 lane paved carriage way varying from 6.0 meters to 7.5 meters at various locations. The right of way (RoW) of the road is 110 ft (i.e. 55 ft. on each side from the center of road).

10. The various components of the project include widening of the existing road from Sukkur to Jacobabad City and constructing a Shikarpur bypass of about 5 km. After the completion of the project the two lane road will be converted to a 4 lane dual carriage way.

1.3 Rationale for Updating of Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plan (LARP)

11. The LARP implementation started in early 2009 but was delayed due to various factors including the gaps in the inventory of losses. With this realization, NHA and a staff consultant form ADB jointly carried out a field survey in October 2010. The team noted3 that there were gaps in the LARP, updated by NESPAK for NHA in May 2009.

2 Hub Uthal (N-25), Multan–Muzaffargarh (N-70), Muslim Bagh–Qila Saifullah, Qila Saifullah–Zhob, Sukkur– Jacobabad (N-65), Zhob–Mughal Kot and Qila Saifullah–Loralai- Walgum Rud. 3 Comments made by Consultant ADB and similar observations were also made by external monitoring

The impacts relating to the loss of building/ structures, and trees were significantly under assessed while the identification of owners/ inventory of land, trees and other assets were not considered in the plan. Furthermore, the ROW considered in the LARP was significantly less as compared with the actual alignment. Having highlighted these gaps in the LARP, NHA considered it essential to finally update the LARP, based on the gaps and findings of joint survey by NHA and the consultant.

12. To update the LARP for the whole project corridor is a time taking process, in this context, ADB accepted that NHA may prepare the Sectional LARPs and NHA can prepare and submit the LARP first for the Section, where there are minimum impacts, so that after its approval, the implementation of the LARP could be completed in a shorter time. Accordingly, NHA divided the LARP into the following four sections:

(i) K.M. 00+000 to 17+500 (Zero to end of Lakki Town) (ii) K.M. 17+500 to 33+250 (End of Lakki Town to end of Shikarpur Bypass) (iii) K.M. 33+250 to 53+450 (End of Shikarpur Bypass to end of Humayun Town) (iv) K.M. 53+450 to 68+358 (End of Humayun town to start of Jacobabad).

13. In accordance with the above division of LARP, NHA has prepared this Updated Resettlement Plan4 for Section-IV IV (53+450 to 68+358 km). This updated RP (Section- IV) is based on a fresh impact assessment survey and consultative meetings with the APs held during March-April 2011 by NHA.

14. However, during review of updated RP (Section-IV) in July 2011 it was observed that the inventory of structures appended with the updated RPs (Section-IV) is based on the identified loss of structure to the APs falling in structure owner category without determining the impacts on other categories of APs including Lessees of the impacted structures doing business therein (business renters) and employees of business owners. To fill the gap a detailed survey of duly identified structures falling within RoW was again carried out in consultation with ADB’ s Consultant (Social Safeguard Specialist, Transport Sector Projects) during October 2011 and all categories of the APs were recorded. The Inventory and text of the updated RP (Section-IV) is adjusted accordingly.

1.4 Project Description

15. The 63 Km road section form Sukkur to Jacobabad (N-65) is an important highway and plays a vital role in connecting Quetta, the capital city of Baluchistan with the province of Sindh and Punjab. In construction, section-IV (53+450 to 68+358) of this project road is planned to be widened and improved as 4 lane dual carriageway. Besides updating of the resettlement Plan for Section-IV between Sukkur–Jacobabad is also to be considered during the project implementation. The scope of project development of section-IV (53+450 to 68+358) includes: Rehabilitation & up-grading the capacity of existing road section (63 km) between Sukkur–Jacobabad to 4-lane dual carriageway.

16. For the purpose of widening of the existing road to a four lanes highway with an adequate available ROW (i.e., 35 m wide) owned by NHA from Sukkur–Shikarpur and Shikarpur–Jacobabad, where no land acquisition is involved. However, the ROW has been encroached by the locals at many places near major settlements along the road corridor, who have to be compensated in accordance with the entitlement criterion and

consultant in his Inception report. 4. The Section-IV involves encroacher’s -business structures which will be relocated by the owners at their own in the nearby place outside ROW after receiving payment of their losses. On the whole, there would be a minor impact on the livelihood of the APs due to the construction of this section.

compensation matrix prepared under the Land Acquisition & Resettlement Framework agreed with ADB.

17. For the purpose of preparation of sectional LARP, the subproject road has been divided into four sections. The Section-IV Section-IV (53+450 to 68+358) is one of the four Sections of this road project (Sukkur – Jacobabad). There are 4 major settlements; shikarpur, , Lodra, Abdul Ghafoor Solangi, kot sultan village Soomra and hamayun town etc located along the road length, but are located fairly away from the ROW. These are not impacted by the road in anyway. However, there are a few structures located in encroached ROW near above said settlements which have been affected and they will be fully compensated. The location map of the whole length of the project road is presented in Figure 1 and the part of the road under Section-IV (53+450 to 68+358) is highlighted in Figure 2. For more clarity, a linear plan of Section-IV of the Sukkur- Jacobabad (N-65) is presented in Figure 3 showing the details regarding the magnitude of impacts at various chain-ages (km) of this section.

1.5 Objectives of the updated Resettlement Plan (Section-IV)

18. The LARP for Sukkur-Jacobabd (N-65) was prepared in 2009, which was categorized as A based on the project impacts, and a full Resettlement Plan was prepared, which ADB approved in 2009. Delayed implementation of the project required to update Resettlement Plan to capture additional impacts (if any) due to time lag and cap the gaps in the inventory of losses identified in October 2010 by a joint survey team of NHA and a staff consultant form ADB. However, to facilitate the commencement of works, following IR policy requirements, sectional approach was agreed for updating of Resettlement Plan. So, the subproject is divided into four Sections for updating and implementation of LARP independent to each other (See para. 12). This updated resettlement plan is to the extent of Section-IV (53+450 to 68+358) of Sukkur-Jacobabad (N-65).

19. The updated Resettlement Plan (Section-IV) of the Sukkur – Jacobabad project has been prepared in line with the ADB Policy on Involuntary Resettlement (1995) and applicable national laws for making payment of compensation of, buildings/ structures, trees, livelihood losses and other assets. Furthermore, this updated RP (Section-IV) includes the project impacts on livelihood of the people, compensation/ rehabilitation eligibility and entitlements provisions; institutional arrangements, complaints/ grievance redress, implementation schedules, budget, and monitoring program.

20. Land acquisition is not required under this Section-IV. All proposed civil work activities are confined to the ROW in the proposed section. The only impacts are identified mainly on the commercial structures constructed in the RoW by the encroachers. However impacts on few residential structures including rooms, walls and gates are also identified. All impacted residential structures are also located in encroached ROW and the owners of such structures have no title of land. Thus, there will be no land acquisition and no compensation for land losses. The identified APs include structure owners, business renters (business owners doing business in rented in structures) and the employees if any. In Total 73 are affected households (AFs) out of which 28 AFs are the structure owners, 28 AFs fall under business renters category and 17 AFs under employee category. During consultative meetings the structure owners confirmed that they will reconstruct damaged/dislocated structures in adjoining land owned by them, outside ROW. The impact analysis reflect that out of 28 AFs falling in structure owner category 11 AFs will face permanent loss of their income due to their structure loss and 7 AFs will face temporary loss of their income due to partial structures loss. However, the business renters will shift their business in alternate rented in structures without any business interruption and will not face income loss as such except for loss of monthly rent paid in advance. Therefore, to restore the livelihood of AFs the income losses of the structure owners against permanent or temporarily loss of income and for business renters the loss of monthly rent paid in advance due to relocating their business in alternate place is compensated as per provisions of entitlement matrix as detailed in para 73. On an overall basis, it is perceived that the project impact will be transitory and temporary in nature with no physical resettlement or dislocation of the project affected person as the AFs will reconstruct/rehabilitate their business structures in the same settlement along the carriageway. However, all compensation will be paid prior to physical possession of the land and confirmed by the external monitor.

2. SOCIOECONOMIC PROFILE OF APs

21. The information regarding socioeconomic conditions of APs were derived from primary data (field survey) from project alignment falling in Section-IV and data collected from secondary sources, i.e. data from Population Welfare Department (2010), data from Development Statistics of Sindh (2008), District Population Census (District Shikarpur), Agriculture Extension Department Shikarpur, Design Utility Folders of the Project and other. The primary data include census survey of all affected families which covered the

socio-economic profile of each affected family. It is used to determine the project impacts on each AP with respect to asset/income losses and provide compensation accordingly to mitigate the identified impacts. However, the macro level demographic and socio economic profile of the area is derived by use of socio-economic profile of randomly selected 25% sample from total affected population in the project area and information provided in the approved Resettlement Plan and secondary data collected from in line departments.

2.1 Administrative Setting

22. The project road, i.e. Section-IV (53+450 to 68+358 km) falls in the jurisdiction of Jacobabad District. The location of Jacobabad can be explained as 44 K.M North West of Sukkur. According to 2010 data the total area of the district is 2750.65 (Sq Km). This District enjoys its integrity because of its situation, which adjoins it with three provinces, simultaneously. That is, it borders with Rajanpur District of the Punjab Province along its eastern side. It also borders with the Nasirabad district of the Baluchistan Province on its North Western sides. All the same it joins its Southern and South eastern borders simultaneously with four Districts of its parent province of Sindh. These adjoining Districts are District Larkana in its South, District Shikarpur in south east and District Sukkur in its east and District Ghotki in its east south. The district is administratively subdivided into the following Talukas: Ghari Khairo, Jacobabad and Thul. .

23. According to the 2010 census it had a population of 980,296 of which 17.3% were urban. And the annual growth rate is 2.01. The dominant characteristic of the population of this district is tribal one. The tribal system is in the kith and the core of this district. Right from unmemorable times, the residents of this district have remained divided and subdivided into groups and subgroups called the tribes and clans.

2.2 Literacy Status

24. The average literacy rate is 37.3%, out of which 32% had primary level of education, 29% had education up to Matriculation level and 23% had qualification up to intermediate level and only 16% were graduate and postgraduate.

2.3 Income Status

25. On overall basis of the census inventory for the project alignment falling in Section- III, 48% APs had their income ranging below Rs.10000 / month, 34% were belonging to the income group of Rs. 11000-20000/ month, 15% come under the income category of Rs. 21000 to 30000/ month and 3% had the income between Rs. 31000 to 40000/ month. The Structure owners or business renters AFs falling in the income level below Rs 10000 will encounter income loss due to loss of their assets. However, to determine the AFs living below poverty level with respect to Officially Declared Poverty Line (OPL)5, per-capita income of each family was calculated by using census data on income status and household size. The analysis reflected that there are 17 affected families (structure owner and business renter categories) which have earning below poverty level and thus are identified as vulnerable. All such structure owners/Business Renters falling in Section-IV project area will be paid (i) business employment, (ii) relocation allowance, and (iii) vulnerability allowance. While The APs falling in employee category will be provided with one employment allowance equivalent one month’s wage base on official minimum wage

5. The OPL of Rs. 944 per capita / month was determined by the government in 2005–2006 (Pakistan Economic Survey, 2005–06, Table 41) which has been taken as base to assess the vulnerability of Project Affected Persons. This OPL is adopted as base because the government has not updated the OPL since then. However, keeping in view worldwide increase in food basket prices during recent years and increasing trend in poverty level in Pakistan the project Affected Persons earning below Rs. 1200/ per capita/month are taken as vulnerable.

rate to safe guard any adverse impact on their income status.

2.4 Borrowing Status

26. About one-third of the Sample population (i.e. 37%) had obtained credit from both formal and informal sources such as bank, landlords, and relatives.

2.5 Housing Characteristics

27. As the housing conditions are concerned, about 27% of the respondents located along the project road had their katcha houses and 49% respondents had semi-pacca houses, while remaining 24% had pacca houses.

2.6 Social Amenities

28. As far as access to social amenities is concerned, survey results have shown that on overall basis, almost all the respondents had electricity in their houses whereas 43% had the facility of water supply. About 15% to 20% sample respondents had access to the facility of gas, landline phone and sewerage system. Communication network (especially road network) is a prerequisite for undertaking the economic activity. In this context, the adjoining villages along the project area are well connected with the road network through both link and main roads. Project area lies on the belt where underground water is brackish and is not suitable for drinking or even for agriculture purpose, but ironically most of the villagers have no other source of water supply and they have to fetch water from other adjoining areas.

29. Health conditions are one of the major indicators of a society’s social development and quality of life. Healthy manpower is imperative for the advancement and economic growth. The health conditions are good in the area, as no serious disease was reported there. Qualified lady health visitors are mostly non-existent in the area with major reliance on traditional child birth attendant for assisting the delivery. Comparatively, larger villages have the facility of basic health units/ dispensaries. In most of the village people used to consult private practitioner and quacks.

2.7 Status of Agriculture in the Project Area

30. Agriculture in the vicinity of N-65 is predominantly irrigated agriculture. The project area depends on non-perennial canals. The shortage of water is generally experienced in winter and it greatly hampers the crop cultivation for Rabi season. The area is irrigated by canals originating from Guddu Barrage. The project area is mainly a rice growing area. The main crop grown during Kharif season is Rice. Cotton is also grown but there is a significant variation in its production. Major Rabi season crop is wheat. Vegetable and fodder is also cultivated but at small proportion of the cropped area. However, this section of the road does not have any direct or indirect impact on the crops grown in the privately owned lands along the project corridor. Some encroachment related impacts exist within the ROW, owned by NHA. During field survey it is identified that crops are grown in the ROW by the adjoining landowners by encroaching into the ROW. Under ADB policy (1995) requirements, one crop (six month) earlier notice to vacate the ROW encroached for agriculture use is served to all respective encroachers, hence no crop compensations are included in this updated RP (Section-III).

2.8 Economic Activity in the Project Area

31. There are few industrial and commercial activities in the project area. Only some small industries are lying in the vicinity of the project road, i.e. some Rice husking factories, an oil mill, a rice mill, few pickle making factories and temporary brick kilns. Some crop storage depots are also located along the roadside, oil and gas explorations are also in progress around the project area.

32. The livestock in the area includes cows, buffaloes, goats and bullocks, which are mainly reared at domestic level and for agricultural farming and domestic use.

2.9 Social Impacts

33. The project will exert some social impacts on the project affected persons (structure and business owners), which are transitory and temporary corresponding to the execution of civil works only within the ROW. The commercial structures within encroached ROW will be rehabilitated or reconstructed outside ROW limits by the encroachers and the business activities will be resumed accordingly. The construction works within ROW will affect the agriculture activity being carried out within encroached ROW by the adjoining land owners. But it may not exert any tangible social impacts on the agricultural community as the Land owners (who have encroached adjoining ROW) had sufficient privately owned land to continue their agricultural activities. However, keeping in view the temporary interruption in the economic activity transitory support is provided to the Affected Persons.

2.10 Resolution of Community Disputes

34. Community disputes generally depend on the nature of conflict. Minor disputes are normally settled within the community. The village leader known as “Wadera” takes the leading role regarding disputes resolution. However, larger disputes, political differences are referred to the court of law but sometimes the influential people may play a vital role to resolve the issues amicably.

2.11 Women Involvement

35. Women have less opportunity to get education as there are a limited number of educational facilities (schools) for women in the area as reported by the 44% of the sample women. In some cases, women have to go in other villages to get education. About 30% women are literate, while 70% are illiterate. About 28% are working women and 72% are housewives. About 44% women were of the view that they had access to education, while majority of the women (56%) have no such opportunity to get education. This shows lack of education facilities and relatively less trend to educate the females in the project area. About 26% of women said that they had just a little access to lady health visitors, while 18% had access to government doctors. However, 32% women visited private doctors in case of sickness, whereas 24% women consult the quacks. In general, most of the local women involved in farming activities as daily wage laborers like transplanting and harvesting of rice and picking of vegetables etc. along with their male members. The construction activity is

confined within the ROW and there are no economic activities currently taking palce within the ROW, which could have been the source of women’s movement in the ROW. Therefore, the project does not envisage any restriction on women’s daily activities outside the ROW.

2.12 Existence of Community based Organizations

36. In the Sukkur and Shikarpur district, an NGO named as ‘Marrie Stopes Pakistan’ is working on reproductive health. However this NGO does not have any direct or indirect role in land acquisition and resettlement matters.

3. IMPACT ASSESSMENT

3.1 Impact Assessment Survey and Cut-off Date

37. The resettlement survey conducted on 10-10-2010 to 19-10-2010 includes the impact assessment/ Census of 100% APs, socioeconomic profile of APs and consultations with APs and other local community members. NHA has updated6 the impacts of the project considering the site situation. In this context, this resettlement plan has covered the project impacts for Section-IV (53+450 to 68+350).

38. The previous cut-off date was 31 December 2010. Fresh survey of project impacts was carried out in March-April 2011, and based on the findings, inventory of impacts and list of APs were finalized. Therefore, new cut off date was fixed as 30 April 2011 and it was communicated to the APs along the road during the fresh field survey and consultation meetings with APs. This indicates that all APs who will settle in the project area and buildings built after this date will not be entitled to compensation or rehabilitation under the provisions of this updated RP (Section-IV).

39. Under this Section, the proposed project civil works activities will be retained in the designated ROW and no land acquisition is required. The strip of land required for widening of the road is already the property of NHA that will need clearance within settlements where people have constructed residential/commercial structures (Otaks, Shops, hotels and Chapras etc) by encroaching into the ROW, To compensate such assets facing impact due to project activity, price assessment has been carried out by the respective government departments to determine the unit rates. For structures; the price assessment was made by the Communication and Works Department and the rates in case of compensation for wood trees were assessed by the Forest Department while compensation for fruit trees is assessed by the agriculture extension departments of respective districts.

3.2 Project Impacts

40. The project impacts include the following:

(i) Loss of residential/commercial structures and temporary interruption of business/commercial activity. (ii) Loss of private/ community structures (iii) Loss of trees (fruit and non-fruit trees) (iv) Loss of public structures/ infrastructures

6. The impact of the project was significantly under assessed keeping in view the site situation.

3.2.1 Land Acquisition

41. No land acquisition in the Section-IV (53+450 to 68+350) of the project will be required as the land needed for the construction of the project is the property of National Highway Authority (NHA).

3.2.2 Building/ Structures (Shops/ Room)

42. It was noted that there are number of commercial structures (shops, hotels, veranda, kiosks & thatched shed) and few residential structures located within the project alignment. The data summarized in Table 1 depicts that on the whole, there are total 67 Nos. structures located within the project area. Out of which, 47 are permanent structures (including shops, hotels, residential rooms/veranda and Dairy Farm/animal shed etc), while 19 temporary structures includes wooden cabins (kiosks) and thatched sheds (Chapras) are also located within the project ROW. Besides above, One temporary brick kiln (intermittent type), is extended in the ROW and is subject to project impact to the extent of its part in ROW. The inventory of structures is annex-1 and the census inventory of APs with their respective entitlement is provided as Appendix -1.

3.2.3 Community Structures

43. As far as community structures/infrastructure is concerned, there are 6 community structures including brick mosque rooms, ablution place and boundary walls. Caretakers of the community structures or the Mosque Committees will be provided with replacement cost for rehabilitation of the remaining structures or reconstruction of the mosques at alternate place out of ROW. And, if owners want, NHA will also facilitate reconstruction of such structures through civil works contractor. The detail regarding affected community structures is given in Annex 2.

3.2.4 Public Structures

44. The data given in Table 4 indicates that there are 3 public structures (police check post) located within the RoW of the existing road, which will need to be relocated. The concerned public offices/occupants of these structures have been requested to relocate these structures to clear the ROW and facilitate execution of the project works. However, the detailed costs for relocating these structures are worked out on replacement cost basis and are provided in the budget of the RP to meet the financial implications if required. Details regarding these public structures are given in Annex 3.

3.2.5 Inventory of Trees

45. There are total 429 trees owned by the Forest Department, which will have to be removed. Out of these 414 trees are the timber wood trees while 15 trees of different size and age are the date trees grown within the ROW limits. The timber wood trees include eucalyptus and kikar (acacia), etc. (Table 4). The details are given in table 4 below and annex 4 attached to the updated RP (Section-III).

46. NHA is willing to contribute for replenishment of these trees, or do the re-plantation along the ROW. The requisite budgetary provisions are made in the Civil Works Contract in bill No.6 ancillary works. No sooner the civil works are completed the NHA will ensure

plantation of required number of trees in supervision of afforestation wing working under GM EALS.

3.2.6 Affected Crops

47. The Project activities will not exert any tangible adverse impact on the agricultural activity in and around the project corridor. However, during the fresh survey it was observed that the adjoining land owners are practicing crops cultivation in parts of ROW on both sides of the road by encroaching into the ROW. Main crops grown include wheat, Rice and fodder crops during Rabi and Kharif seasons. The Land owners have been given a notice to vacate the ROW with effect from 30th October i.e after harvesting of the current Kharif crop and refrain cultivation of ensuing Rabi crop in the encroached strips of ROW. Thus, there will be no substantial impact on the crops or income of the land owners to be compensated under project.

3.2.7 No. of Affected Families (AFs)

48. There are a total 73 families who will be affected due to construction of the project in section IV. The AFs have been categorized as follows: (i) owners of business structures, (ii) business renters (AFs doing business in rented in business structures and (iii) the employees of the business operators. Out of total affected families, 28 fall in structure owners category, 28 families fall in category of business renters and 17 APs are in the employee category. Inventory/ census List of AFs with their respective entitlements is attached Appendix-1.

3.3 Vulnerable AFs/APs.

49. The AFs earning below poverty level are accounted as vulnerable due to their income status and are eligible for special treatment/support to restore their livelihoods. The income status of all AFs was analyzed to calculate the per-capita income of AFs to

determine vulnerability and the AFs earning Rs. 1200/- or below per-capita/month7 are defined as vulnerable for the purpose of this updated Resettlement Plan (Section-IV). There are 17 Affected Families falling in this range of per-capita income and are identified as eligible for vulnerability allowance.

3.4. Price Assessment of Land and other Assets

50. A brief description of unit prices and source of information is given in table 6 below:

(i) Trees and Crops (a) In case of wood/timber trees, the price per plant is assessed by the Forest Department keeping in view the “girth” of plant. All types of fruit trees are assessed by the Agriculture Extension Wing of Agriculture Department, Shikarpur District. These departments assessed and approved the unit rates which have been adopted as unit rates for calculation of compensation, and are provided in Annex- 6. For wood and fruit trees unit rates of June 2011 have been used for calculating compensation. . (b) Similarly for crop compensation, the unit market rate are assessed by Agriculture Department using the market rate criterion of net crop value for current year based on average yield per acre of different crops. These unit rates have been provided in annex 8. However the execution of civil works under Section-IV will not have any adverse impact on the agricultural activity in the project area so this LARP for Section IV does not include any crop compensations. (ii) Other Assets/ Properties

(c) For affected buildings and other structures, the unit rates have been approved by Works and Services/ Buildings Department, district Shikarpur based on June 2011 rates as replacement value unit rates. More details are provided in annex-7.

4. OBJECTIVES AND POLICY FRAMEWORK

51. The updated RP (Section-IV) was prepared in line with the ADB’s Involuntary Resettlement Policy (1995) and Resettlement Framework Document of the Project (NHDSIP) and the Land Acquisition Act (LAA) of 1894 with its amendments.

52. ADB Involuntary Resettlement Policy discusses the three major points, i.e. i) IRP emphasizes that the absence of formal legal title to land is not a bar to entitlements and assistance, ii) the LAA assesses compensation based on the market value of acquired property, where the IRP emphasizes the payment of replacement value of all affected assets, iii) follow the participatory approach, information disclosure and discussion with APs and appointment of special committees such as grievance redress committees.

4.1 Compensation Eligibility and Entitlements for the Project

53. Land Acquisition and Resettlement tasks under the project will be implemented according to compensation eligibility and entitlements in line with Pakistan’s LAA 1894 and ADB involuntary resettlement policy. Under the LAA, only legal owners and tenants officially registered with the Revenue Department or with formal lease agreements are considered “eligible” for land compensation. As per the provisions of the LAA, cash compensation is assessed (under Section 5) on the basis of 1 year average registered market rate. To fit the requirements of the ADB policy, however, under this updated RP (Section-IV) also non-titled land users will be given a rehabilitation allowance for loss of land use (if any).

4.2 Eligibility for Entitlements of Compensation

54. All APs which will be entitled for compensation and / or rehabilitation provisions under this subproject are:

(i) Owners of buildings/ structures, trees; (ii) APs losing business, income, and salaries.

55. Fresh survey of project impacts was carried out in March-April 2011, and based on the findings, inventory of impacts and list of APs were finalized. So, for entitlement eligibility cutoff date was fixed as 30 April 2011 and it was communicated to the APs along the road during the fresh field survey and consultation meetings with APs.

56. APs who settle in the affected areas after the cut-off date will not be eligible for compensation. However, they will be given sufficient advance notice to vacate premises and dismantle their affected structures prior to project implementation.

4.3 Compensation Entitlements

57. Entitlement provisions for APs losing property assets and income losses, the assistance/ allowance will include provisions for permanent and temporary losses, and trees losses, relocation assistance, and a business losses allowance based on government minimum per capita income/ minimum official wage rate. These entitlements are discussed as follows:

58. Entitlement provisions for APs losing structures (residential/commercial) and income losses and rehabilitation allowance will include provisions for permanent and temporary losses of income, house and buildings losses, crops and trees losses are discussed below:

(i) Residential/Commercial, buildings, structures damages. These impacts will be compensated in cash at replacement cost free of depreciation, salvaged materials, and transaction costs deductions. The compensation will include the cost of lost water supply, electricity or telephone connections. When a House/building is affected for more than 25% (or less than that but is structurally damaged) it will be compensated in its entirety. (ii) Government Trees: The government owned trees will be removed through Forest Department. As per Law and govt. policy the forest department is not entitled for compensation for trees subject to felling for public interest projects. However, as per policy the provision for replenishment of trees with a ratio of 1:10 is notified to ensure growing new trees in the public corridors to enhance forest area of the country. Following government policy, NHA in consultation with forest department shall made available adequate funds for replenishment/compensatory plantation. (iii) Businesses: compensation for permanent business losses will be in cash for the period deemed necessary to re-establish the business up to a maximum of 6 months period; compensation for temporary business losses will be cash covering the income of the interruption period up to 3 months. While the business renters (AFs doing their business in rented in shops) will shift and re-establish their business by moving to premises available on rent outside ROW in same locality. However, such AFs wiil face loss of monthly rent paid in advance to structure owners and will have to pay monthly rent for new premises as well. To compensate this, they will be given cash assistance equivalent to two months rent / official wage rate (whichever is more) to relocate their business at alternate premises. (iv) Transportation/relocation Allowance: One time assistance/ allowance at rate of Rs 5000 will be paid to each and every house hold eligible for this allowance. (v) Community Structures and Public Utilities: Will be fully replaced or rehabilitated so as to satisfy their pre-project functions. (vi) Vulnerable people Livelihood: Vulnerable people (APs below the poverty line and or widow, orphans, women household heads, landless etc.) falling in Corridor of Impact require special assistance/support to restore their livelihood and sustain their living standards. All such APS will be provided with one special allowance equivalent to one month’s official wage rate. Besides, they will be given priority in employment in project-related jobs through civil works contractor during execution of the project. The relevant contract clauses have been included in the civil works contract.

4.4 Eligibility and Entitlements

59. All families residing in affected areas and holding affected assets or incomes before the eligibility cut-off date for the project set as 30 April, 2011 will be entitled for compensation and/or rehabilitation for their losses. Based on the project situation and impacts assessment, there was impact and compensation pertaining to the loss of structures and trees as well as crops. However, other impacts so far unidentified may occur during the implementation which will also be compensated based on the entitlement matrix given in the following Table 8.

8 Forest Department is responsible to remove the government owned trees to facilitate execution of public interest projects. However, the EA has to send a formal request to Forest Department with details of trees subject to be removed. Upon receipt of the request the Forest Department auctions the identified trees as per Government Policy. For such removal Forest Department is not entitled for compensation of trees. However, as per government policy the EA has to ensure funds for replenishment/compensatory plantation at a ratio of 1:10 i.e for each felled tree 10 new plants to be grown as compensatory plantation. 9 Business owner: AFs, who themselves are running business in their owned affected structure and are subjected to permanent or temporary business loss due to loss of structure are entitled for compensation as proposed along with compensation for structure loss. 10 Business renters: AFs, who are running their business in rented in affected structures, will shift their business in other rented in structures outside ROW and there will be no impact on their business as such. However, they will face loss of monthly rent paid in advance to the structure owner, which has been compensated to minimize the adverse impacts (if any) and facilitate the shifting of business articles at alternate place with financial support equal to two month’s rent..

5. PUBLIC CONSULTATIONS AND DISCLOSURE

60. Before the commencement of the Project fresh consultations during March, to May and September, October 2011, were held in which about 20 APs participated from settlement along road side like Begari, Abad, and Kahar. List of participants is given in Annex.5 The local community/ APs provided the details regarding their issues associated with the implementation of this project. Furthermore, all APs have been informed regarding the implementation of LAR activities, cut-off date, eligibility and entitlements for compensation by the Land Section, office of the Project Directorate, Sukkur during their consultations and coordination meetings with the APs.

61. The major concerns/ issues and feedback highlighted are discussed as below:

(i) All APs were satisfied with this whole project plan and were willing to provide all cooperation in this regard. (ii) Local labour should be hired during the construction of this road project11. (iii) Traffic control measures should be adopted to regulate the traffic flow. (iv) Corridors/ Passages should be built for cattle’s at suitable locations along the road12. (v) Over loading of the vehicles should be monitored for the long lasting life of the road. (vi) To minimize the accidents speed control measures should be adopted. (vii) During the construction phase the dust pollution should be minimized. (viii) Trees should be planted along the road side to minimize the impact on environment as well as cutting of trees. (ix) Avoid dismantling of social/ religious infrastructure like mosque and schools, graves. (x) Proper traffic diversion system should be adopted in order to avoid traffic congestion and related hazards.

62. Some other problems relating to the local women and children are as follow: Construction should be done as fast as can be because, in some emergencies, women and children will have to go hospitals for heath care purposes.

63. The community/APs had been informed about LAR impacts and the eligibility criteria in consultative meetings during preparation of updated RP (Section-IV). However, the disclosure of the approved RP before its implementation is mandatory under ADB’s communication policy. Therefore after endorsement of RP by ADB, the APs will be provided all project related information including information brochures covering all necessary details about entitlement matrix, details of project impacts and compensation, grievance redress system and contact persons, etc, before starting payment of compensation and physical displacement.

64. The LAR Unit will have the responsibility to translate the summary of updated RP (Section-IV) in local language (Urdu/ Sindhi) and disclose it to the APs and other notable local community members located in the jurisdiction of Section-IV. Disclosure of updated RP (Section-IV) will be done, after its approval by the ADB. Copies of Urdu/ Sindhi version of updated RP (Section-IV) (Brochure) will also be placed at the office of Project Directorate and PIUs and will also ensure its availability to the APs.

11 Contractor will engage the requisite local staff through contract agreement 12 It is the desire of the people as identified during consultations. In fact, this will not be required as this road is already constructed.

65. Addressed Issues

(i) All necessary facilities (like foot bridges and crossings ) will be provided to the APs (ii) In relevance to existing tracks/routes to facilitate communication and daily routine activities for the local population. (iii) All the construction work will be confined within the proposed Right of Way (RoW). (iv) Payment of structures/ properties assets will be made prior to start the civil work. (v) All important infrastructures will be restored by providing culverts, bridges, waiting sheds, flyovers & underpasses. (vi) A tree plantation program to compensate for the anticipated loss of vegetation during the construction activities, and to help abate pollution caused by emissions, dust, and noise during highway operation; and (vii) Project construction camp will be located at a minimum distance of 500 meters away from existing settlements and built-up areas. In order to avoid restricting the mobility of local people, construction vehicles will remain confined within their designated areas of movement. (viii) Sensitivity towards local customs and traditions will be encouraged to minimize social friction. In this respect, good relations with local communities will be promoted by encouraging contractors to provide opportunities for skilled and unskilled employment to locals, as well as on job training in construction for young people.

6 COMPENSATION, RELOCATION AND INCOME RESTORATION

6.1 General

66. As discussed in chapter 3 land acquisitions is not envisaged to implement and execute the civil works under this section of the road. The only impacts are identified on the structures constructed in the ROW (NHA owned property) by the encroachers. This section deals with the compensations for affected, structures and assets identified during the Census Survey. The updated RP (Section-IV) focuses on providing compensations for the lost assets of APs and suggests measures to restore their livelihoods to former living standards. The compensation is based on the provisions of the EM and the unit rates provided in Table 8.

6.2 Compensation for Privately Owned Structures

67. The privately owned affected structures are mostly commercial structures constructed in the encroached ROW by the APs and include (i) shops, (ii) verandas/sheds, (iii) chapras and wooden cabins. However, few residential structures constructed in ROW are also falling under impact and include residential rooms, Otak (a place away from house to sit and meet people) and chapras. There is one temporary type of brick kilns a small portion of which is under impact due to its location in ROW. To estimate the replacement value of the affected structures, the assets have been standardized for compensation on an average unit rate per sq. ft. as given in Table 7 and updated unit rates have been provided by the respective C&W department of Shikarpur District

6.4 Compensation for Public infrastructure/Assets

69. The survey has revealed that 3 structures falling in public infrastructure category are being affected in this sub-project. All these structures are constructed in the encroached ROW by the Police/Customs Department. These structures include two rooms and a chapra being used as check posts. The concerned departments will be requested to clear the ROW

by relocating the identified structures at their own. However, if required the structures/assets may be compensated on replacement cost basis through relevant departments. To meet the financial implications (if any) the cost of all the structure encountered during census survey is worked out on replacement cost basis in accordance with unit rates provided by the C&W department of respective district. The details of the structures and the cost estimates are provided in table 11 below

6.5 Provisions for Compensatory Plantation

70. In total 429 trees owned by the Forest Department, which will be removed from ROW to execute project civil works. Out of these 414 trees are the timber wood trees while 15 trees of different size and age are the date trees grown within the ROW limits. The NHA will request Forest Department for removal of these trees to avoid any damage and consequent compensations to forest department. However, for replenishment of these trees, compensatory plantation at a ratio of 1:10 is proposed in consultation with Forest Department and will be carried out by NHA under supervision of afforestration wing in EALS Section. The adequate budgetary provision is made in civil works contract in BOQ (Bill No 6 “ancillary works”). So, this updated RP (Section-IV) do not include cost for compensatory plantation.

6.6 Relocation Options

6.6.1 Privately owned Structures

71. All structures falling under project impacts are constructed by encroaching land within the RoW. The owners of these structures will be compensated for structures only at replacement cost basis as per entitlement provision provided in the approved resettlement frame work for NHDSIP. Besides compensation of structure loss, for transportation of salvage material a lump sum amount as transportation allowance will be provided to each entitled AH13. Alternate land or compensation for land will not be provided to relocate these structures. During consultative meetings the structure owners affirmed that they will rehabilitate their remaining structure outside ROW or reconstruct new structure at their own in their land available outside ROW.

13 As a matter of equity, the transportation allowance is provided to all AFs facing loss of structure (permanent/partial) or business renter to handle/shift/transport salvage material or shift business articles from impacted structure to new rented in structure. Detail of transportation allowance is provided in para 74.

6.6.2 Religious Structures

72. The most of the mosques are constructed along the road in ROW by the adjoining land owners for providing prayer places to the passersby. All mosques will need to be relocated due to project works. Construction of dual carriageway will left no space to reconstruct or relocate these structures in the nearby NHA owned ROW. Thus NHA will provide compensation for structures on replacement cost basis while, the Community/Custodians of these community structures will relocate and reconstruct these religious structures outside ROW.

6.6.3 Additional Assistance for Vulnerable Households

73. 17 AFs falling in structure owner and business renter category having per-capita monthly earnings below Rs. 1200 are identified as vulnerable. For such households, in addition to the compensation for their affected assets, an additional allowance of Rs. 7000 (amount equal to minimum official wage rate) will be paid as additional assistance. The amount of compensation to be paid on this account comes to be Rs. 119,000/=.

6.7 Income Restoration

74. It is anticipated that the project will make a positive impact on the economy of the area in general. A number of business and employment opportunities will be created during the construction and operation phase, for the business entrepreneurs and skilled/un-skilled labor respectively resulting into increased economic activity in the project corridor. However, to compensate the adverse impacts on source of livelihood due to loss of commercial structures the business/employment interruption allowance is provided on the basis of entitlement matrix (table 8) prepared in accordance with approved Resettlement Framework for NHDSIP. The table 12 below gives the detail of the AFs facing business/employment loss and their entitled compensation.
