EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 Project and public purpose

The proposed project aims to the construction of Karingalimukkil lock cum bridge, Vengoliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Kaliyamvalliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Thayyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal and construction of Kottappalliyil bridge and approach road bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal in order to improve the operational efficiency of Vadakara- Mahi canal.

Vadakara-Mahe canal is the 1st phase of bridging of the gap of the West coast canal from Vadakara to Valapattanm. At present Kollam- Kottappuram portion of the West coast canal has declared as National Waterway No. NW3. With the development of Vadakara- Mahe canal the West coast canal from Kottappuram to Vadakara will be extend to Mahe in the north. The Vadakara- Mahe canal links Moorat (Kuttiadi) river in the south to Mahe river in the north. Both these rivers are West flowing and navigate from the foot of Western Ghats in the east of Arabian sea. These two Rivers can be developed as feeder routes to the canal from the hinterlands. The hinterlands are highly fertile and agricultural belt the crops being Paddy, Coconut, Cashew, Pepper, Rubber, Coffee, Tea, etc. The coastal belt is active fishing centers with fish landing centers on the mouth of two Rivers thus the canal and feeder route can serve the cargo movement comprising of the above agricultural products, fertilizers, agro- based industrial raw material of Thalassery, Mananthavady, Vadakara, Kalpetta and Quilandi Taluk of three districts viz. Kannur, kozhikkod, and Wayanad. The fishing industry also will be benefited for the transport of the fish to the hinterlands and fishing boats can use these inland navigation routes for their safe travel between different landing centers during the monsoon when sea is rough.

1.6 Mitigation measures

An extent of 680 cents of land from 54 survey numbers from Eramala, Edacheri, Purameri and Kottappally villages in Vatakara taluk of Kozhikkod district is required to be acquired for the proposed project. The land identified for the project of constructing Karingalimukkil lock cum bridge, Vengoliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Kaliyamvalliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Thayyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal and construction of Kottappalliyil bridge and approach road bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal in order to improve the operational efficiency of Vadakara- Mahi canal belongs to 40 families. Some of these families are finding their income through agricultural activities performed in the area considered for the proposed acquisition. So, the acquisition of land for the proposed project will affect the owners of the land and their dependents in terms of reducing their income and resources. However, by considering the following measures the authorities can mitigate and compensate the possible negative impacts of the land acquisition.

Compensation for the land owners as per the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013. Resettlement and Rehabilitation procedure as per the Policy issued by Revenue(B) Department, Government of Kerala vide G.O.(Ms)No.448/2017/RD dated 29/12/2017 for the rehabilitation and resettlement package for land acquisition in the state in lieu of RFCTLAR&R Act 2013. The majority of the directly affected families are relying on the project area for their livelihood as their main occupation is agriculture. So, the loss of these assets will cause a significant impact on their livelihood. However, through adequate compensation, these issues can be solved.

CHAPTER 10

ANALYSIS OF COSTS AND BENEFITS AND RECOMMENDATION ON ACQUISITION

SIA of Land Acquisition for the Widening of Vatakara- Mahe Canal in Kozhikode District

efficiency of Vadakara- Mahi canal belongs to 40 families. The owners of the land rely on their properties for agriculture related activities, and they are getting their income from those activities. So, there will be a significant impact on the livelihood of the families who will be affected by the proposed land acquisition.

The alignment of the proposed project was designed with an effort to reduce the number of people who will be affected with the land acquisition.

However, through the proper measures as per RFCTLAR&R Act 2013 the negative impacts of land acquisition should be mitigated.

10.2 The above analysis will use the equity principle as a framework of analysis for presenting a final recommendation on whether the acquisition should go through or not.

Comparing/weighing the positive against the negative impacts, it can be observed that the implementation of the project will result in improving the overall development of the district. The owners of the land are supporting the project and they stated that they have no issues in hand overring the land if they get proper compensation and rehabilitation.

Thus, it can be concluded that the former outweighs the latter reaffirming the identified site as the most suitable and apt one for the project of construction of Karingalimukkil lock cum bridge, Vengoliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Kaliyamvalliyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal, Thayyil bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal and construction of Kottappalliyil bridge and approach road bridge across Vatakara- Mahi canal in order to improve the operational efficiency of Vadakara- Mahi canal. The families that are affected would require adequate and fair compensation and proper rehabilitation. The area which is considered for acquisition is mainly used for agricultural purposes. So, the authorities should make proper action plan to the reduce the impact on people who solely relied on the project area for agricultural activities. It is observed that many of the negative impacts highlighted can be minimized or reduced with effective and relevant mitigation measures and strategies mentioned.
