A. Introduction 1. Improving Dhaka-Sylhet highway into a 4 Lane Highway will increase the capacity of a major South Asian corridor and Trans-Asia highway network, which will boost the national economic growth and also facilitate sub regional cooperation and trade. It will improve efficiency in the movement of goods to and from markets and access to social benefits and services. Realizing the situation, the Government of Bangladesh is reviewing and updating Designs for the Improvement of the Existing Dhaka (Katchpur)-Sylhet National Highway. Preparation of Social Safeguard documents is a pre-requisite of detailed design of a huge scale Transport Infrastructure Project where external funding agency may be involved. It is a tool for budget estimation of land acquisition and resettlement works of a transport infrastructure project. Resettlement Plan for Dhaka-Sylhet Highway project contains a tentative estimation of losses of land, structures and other assets incurred by the project and the budget estimation for compensating those loses. 2. The total length of proposed Dhaka-Sylhet Highway corridor is 222.50 kilometres which is traversing across 7 districts, i.e., , , , , , and . The first three districts are in , Brahmanbari district is in Division, and the last three districts are in .Total length of. The full length of the corridor has been divided into twelve (12) packages for construction of a 4-Lane highway: Package-wise chainage and length are as follows: Table A: Package-Wise Chainage and Length of the proposed Highway

C. Information Disclosure, Consultation, and Participation 6. The affected people were consulted in groups regarding the project goals and objective, potential social and resettlement impacts on them and their suggestion about mitigation measures. The discussions were held with special focus on their losses of properties and or livelihood. Affected people were brought together in groups based on homogeneity and or nearness. Total 10 Stakeholder Consultation Meeting (SCM) and 61 FGDs were conducted during October-February 2020. The consultant sought opinion of the affected people about potential adverse impacts and their suggested mitigation measures. D. Grievance Redress Mechanism 7. Grievance Redress Committees (GRCs) will be established at two levels: (i) Union/Municipal level and (ii) Project Level. At the Community level, GRCs will be formed with representatives from RHD, local elected representatives from the Local Government Institutions (LGI), Affected Persons representatives (women representative in case of women APs), and RP implementing NGO. GRC decisions will be on a majority basis and will be publicized among the local communities. Where the complaining parties are not satisfied with the GRC decisions, they can go the Project Director (PD, RHD) for resolution. If the disputant is still unhappy, he/she can file cases in the court. E. Policy, Objectives and Entitlements 8. The primary objective of this resettlement plan is to identify impacts and to plan measures to mitigate the various adverse impacts and restore and/or improve the overall

xvi standards of living of the people in the post-project period. Mitigation measures have been proposed to comply with the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017 and ADB’s Safeguards Policy Statement’s (2009) Involuntary Resettlement (IR) Policy (IR) requirements. The RP outlines the (i) type and extent of loss of assets, including land, structures, tree, crops and income; (ii) principles and legal framework applicable to mitigate these losses; (iii) entitlement matrix, (iv) implementation arrangement including monitoring and evaluation, and (iv) budget. The entitlement matrix covers all losses at replacement costs, irrespective of titles and ownership rights. Table C: Entitlements, Assistance and Benefits under the Resettlement Plan – Summary

1.1 Introduction 12. Dhaka-Sylhet transportation has been given priority in the Government of Bangladesh’s seventh five-year development strategy considering current circumstances and to overcome traffic congestion. The Government of Bangladesh also gives highest priority in improving the communication sector in the yearly budgets, which complies with the sustainable Development Goal to be achieved by 2030. Improving Dhaka-Sylhet highway into a 4 Lane Highway will increase the capacity of major South Asian corridor and Trans-Asia highway network, which will boost the national economic growth and also facilitate sub regional cooperation and trade. It will improve efficiency in the movement of goods to and from markets and access to social benefits and services. 13. The Government of Bangladesh is currently reviewing and updating Designs for the Improvement of the Existing 215.00 km Dhaka (Katchpur)-Sylhet National Highway. Preparation of Social Safeguard documents is a pre-requisite of detailed design of a huge scale Transport Infrastructure Project where external funding agency may be involved. It is a tool for budget estimation of land acquisition and resettlement works of a transport infrastructure project. Resettlement Plan for Dhaka-Sylhet Highway project contains an estimation of losses of land, structures and other assets affected by the project and the budget estimation for compensating those loses. 14. The project starts from Kanchpur Intersection of Narayangonj district of Dhaka division and reach to Peer Habibur Rahman Chattar, Sylhet of Sylhet division. Total length of proposed corridor is 222.50 kilometres. The alignment traverse through Seven (7) Districts, 21 Upazila and 243 Mouza. Name of 7 Districts are Narayanganj, Narsingdi, Kishoreganj, Brahmanbaria, Habiganj, Moulvibazar and Sylhet district. First three districts are in Dhaka Division, Brahmanbari district is in , and the last three districts are in Sylhet Division. 1.2 The Alignment 15. The alignment selected during the detailed design of Dhaka-Sylhet Highway improvement project mainly followed National Highway . Figure of the alignment is shown below:

Figure 1: Figure of proposed Alignment

Figure 2: Figure of Typical Cross Section

16. The section between Madhodi and Panchodona was shifted, 1.3 km, to avoid impacts on commercial area and in Sylhet City ( Humayon Rashid Chattor to avoid impacts on commercial area and to connect to Tamabil road from chainage 212+750 – 221+500. 17. The total 222.50 km proposed corridor of the project was divided into 12 packages during the detailed design stage. The highway starts from east of Kanchpur Intersection in Narayangonj District and ends at the Peer Habibur Rahman Chattar of Sylhet District. 18. The Resettlement Plan is prepared based on draft design of the Alignment with wider service lane widths. Census survey was conducted following the wider width service lane. The Resettlement Plan will be revised based on the final design before implementation. Package- wise length of the highway is presented in Table 1.

Source: Topographical Survey 2019 1.3 Project Features 19. Main Components of the Dhaka-Sylhet Highway (N2) corridor are: • Construction of a 4 lane Highway on basis at-grade; The road’s proposed alignment will generally follow the existing alignment with minor modification (e.g., easing sharp bends and some short section realignment) to connect with structures constructed and under construction by RHD and avoid religious structures like , temple or graveyards. The road’s alignment will be shifted to connect to proposed bridges and rail overpasses and avoid social disruption and resettlement in Madobdi and Panchdona which are heavily encroached by businesses. The proposed width of RoW varies from 55m to 65m depending upon the existing ground level. The width further increases at the location of bridge approaches, at-grade U-turns and roundabouts. Detailed of existing and proposed RoW is shown in land acquisition plan. Considering mixed modal traffic and presence of local traffic and pedestrians, two different cross sections have been developed for rural and urban/market with two different widths of 37.0m, and 41.0m respectively. Adopted cross section carries 2 lane carriageway (each

4

carriageway 7.3m wide) separated by 1.2m wide Kerb median for rural, 1.0m New Jersey for urban and flanked by 1.5m paved shoulder on each side. Alongside the paved shoulders, 1.2m wide divider is proposed. In general a 0.3m shy distance/ inner margin are proposed along Kerb median whereas 0.6m proposed for New Jersey barrier.

• Length is about 222.50.000 km from Kanchpur Intersection to Peer Habibur Rahman Chattar. • Construction of four (4) Overpasses, four (4) Rail Overpasses and one (1) Rail Overpasses cum Flyover.

The project has provision of one Flyover and four Overpasses at Velanagar (Chainage 32+676), Rupshi (Chainage 4+100), Shekerchor (Chainage 25+562), Itakhola (Chainage 39+056) and Durjoy Chottor (Chainage 66+765), these will ultimately contribute in avoiding land acquisition and social impact at those intersetions. 20. The alignment of the Dhaka-Sylhet National Highway (N2) (0+100 to 222+600 = 222.50 km) traversed through 7 districts 21 and 243 Mouza (Land Units), those are affected by the land acquisition hence project development.

1.4 Benefits and Impacts: 21. The project intends to strengthen domestic and international trade of Bangladesh both within the country and with its neighbouring countries promoting economic activity in general. This highway will definitely enhance transport facilities between Dhaka and Sylhet and provide a boost to the region in-between in the form of allied economic activities and providing access to larger markets for the local goods. The goal of the highway project is to provide efficient, fast, safe, socially and environmentally sustainable road transport facilities in the region. 22. However, construction of the Dhaka-Sylhet Highway will involve acquisition of private land at various locations and impact both titleholders and non-title holders using RHD or other government land. The proposed highway will impact on 9,286 and displace about 7,355 households and units in total. The final figures will be presented in the updated version of this RP. 23. This RP has been prepared in accordance with the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017 (ARIPA, 2017) and compliance with ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement 2009 and guided by the legal instrument governing land acquisition in Bangladesh to mitigate any adverse impact caused by the project. 1.5 Measures to Minimize Impacts 24. Extensive efforts have been made to minimize physical and economical resettlement impacts in the highway design. These include (i) the use of the available government land owned by RHD or other government agencies as much as possible; and (ii) adjusting the alignment to avoid some sensitive structures or locations and acquiring as much minimum required for the project development activities. This compromise has been achieved keeping in view the minimum required specifications for a safe and effective road development. Table 2 Chainage wise location of Alignment Improvement

1.6 The Resettlement Plan 25. The Resettlement Plan is prepared based on the Draft Design of the Alignment with wider service lane widths. Census survey was conducted following the wider width service lane. This Resettlement Plan will be later updated and implemented following the final design of the alignment with narrower width service lane. 26. The RP will be updated during the Detailed Engineering Design with full census of of AHs, Detailed Measurement Survey (DMS) and SES.

1.7 Objectives of the Resettlement Plan 27. The objectives of the RP are to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; to minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring design alternatives; to enhance, or at least 1 restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. 28. The RP applies for full or partial, permanent or temporary physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential structures, or loss of shelters) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) resulting from the four-lane highway. The key objectives of the RP are to provide mitigation measures in terms of compensation for land, structures, as well as other assets at replacement costs (RC), and other necessary benefits, grants and assistance to ensure that affected persons (APs) are better or at least pre-project period. 29. This RP establishes the provisions for the payment of the RCs and resettlement assistance to Affected Households (AHHs), including land, shops and businesses and the poor and vulnerable affected households along the identified alignment. It provides a description of the socioeconomic characteristics of AHHs. Finally, it sets out the implementation schedule, and provides an indicative costs and budget estimate for implementation. 30. This RP will be reviewed and, if necessary, the budget will be revised during implementation to reflect any changes in the number of affected households or losses compared to those identified during the census and IoL.

1 In the context of involuntary resettlement, displaced persons are those who are physically displaced (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and/or economically displaced (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of (i) involuntary acquisition of land, or (ii) involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas.

1.8 Methodology for Preparing the Resettlement Plan 31. As per the requirement of EA, the social survey/census on the alignment from Kanchpur Intersection to Peer Habibur Rahman Chattar has been conducted in 12 Packages which is described in Table 1. 32. The socioeconomic data/tables in the RP are presented accordingly while impacts tables have been generated by affected districts since the land acquisition and compensation will be taken care of by the DCs (Head of District Administration). Land acquisition and Resettlement budget is also prepared by Package to synchronize with other reports. 33. In preparing the RP a participatory approach was followed for collecting data and information. The tools and techniques used include (a) Census of affected households (100%); (b) Socioeconomic Survey (100%) (c) Property Valuation Survey; (d) Stakeholder Consultation Meetings; and (e) Focus Group Discussions. 34. Besides, the house/structure marking along with video filming were also done. Initially, RHD land area was calculated based on mouza maps and assumed RHD Right of Way, based on field visits. The privately owned land area is assessed based on land records of civil land authorities. Finally, field-level surveys were conducted from October 2019 to February 2020 to identify the plots that will be affected as per the proposal. 35. Structured questionnaires and checklists were used for collecting data/information. A team of experienced professionals along with a number of field staffs were engaged in conducting these surveys and consultations following the offset data and profile drawings provided by the Design Team of the project. The tasks are further briefly explained. 36. Data collections for all surveys have been conducted through Android Tabs. The Tablets are connected with internet and data of each interview are stored as an independent record in the secured cloud severs. Collected data have been exported to SPSS with variable and value labels, Excel, Access, etc., for easy and quick processing. As part of the interview the Tabs-based surveys enables to capture signatures, take pictures or videos and even record voice and attach it to any of surveys.

1.8.1 Census and Inventory of Losses Survey 37. Census and IoL survey were conducted on October 2019 up to February 2020 for all affected households, shops, irrespective of title to the land including squatters, encroachers, vendors, tenants, wage labourer, etc. The enumerators visited house to house and collected information from the household head or his/her proxy of legal age. About 9,286 households/Units/entities were visited. All of the affected entities such as land owners, structure owners, businessmen, tenants, pond owners, vendors, and Common properties were covered by the census and IoL survey. Format of Questionnaire used for Census and SES is attached as Annex-E.

1.8.2 Socioeconomic Survey 38. Based on the census and IoL survey all enumerated households were selected for conducting detailed SES. In this regard, required socioeconomic data of all HHs were gathered for socioeconomic analysis. The selected households/entities were informed in advance by the enumerators concern for ensuring their presence during the interview for SES. The SES was conducted in parallel with the Census and IOL between October 2019 to February 2020 and collected socio-economic information from all (100%) of affected households. 7

1.8.3 Property Valuation Survey 39. PVS was conducted for the affected land, structures, trees and other properties by collecting information from knowledgeable persons of the affected mouzas within the Project areas. In this regard prices of the affected properties were collected from potential sellers and buyers, deed writers, religious leaders, school teachers, etc. At least five persons were interviewed in a mouza. Besides, Government rates were collected from the Sub-Registrar’s Offices (for land), from the PWD (for structures) and from the Forest Department (for trees) concerned. Format for Property Valuation Survey is attached as Annex-F.

1.8.4 Structure Marking and Video Filming 40. All of the affected entities with their owner households were identified during the census conducted from October 2019 to February 2020. Based on the ‘number of census form’ the individual household number was created. The household number was written with permanent ink (red colour) on the visible wall of the structure, where necessary live evidences were recorded through carrying out video filming. The video filming was done for preventing fraudulent claims by the structure owner(s) in future and to restrict policy abuse and influx of out siders in to the Project RoW for fraudulent claims. The affected structure along with the household head or any members of the family were captured during video filming with name of household head with father’s/husband’s name and address.

1.8.5 Stakeholder Consultation Meetings 41. SCMs were carried out right after the social survey team mobilized in the field. In this regard, the SCMs were conducted with both the primary and secondary stakeholders. Ten (10) community consultation meetings were held in Project Influencing Area. The SCMs were conducted in (i) Marjal Bus Stand, Raipur, Narsingdi; (ii) Orbit Nursing, Basail, Narsingdi; (iii) Haji Nur Uddin High Schools , Rupganj, Narayanganj; (iv) SP institute, Madhabdi, Narayanganj; (v) Madhabpur Govt. Primary School, Madhabpur, Habiganj; (vi) Khatihata, B,Baria Sadar, B.Baria; (vii) Putizuri Union Parishad, Bahubal, Habiganj; (viii) Lala Bazar Union Parishad, Dakshin Surma, Sylhet; (ix) Shahpur Notun Bazar, Madhabpur, Habiganj (x) Goala Bazar Union Parishad, Osmaninagar, Sylhet. Field Supervisors and Enumerators with the help of community leaders arranged the meeting.

3.1 Introduction 68. This chapter presents the socioeconomic profile of the affected households of Dhaka- Sylhet Highway. No ethnic minority or indigenous peoples are affected by the Project alignment. Socioeconomic profiles of the affected households include demographic characteristics, income and expenditure status and poverty dimension. These are discussed in the following sections. 3.2 Profile of the Affected Households 69. Total number of affected households are 8,905. Table 22 presents population by sex of these affected households as well as Sex ratio (No. of Male/ 100 Female populations). There are 8,905 households (excluding CPR, and other entities) with a total population of 40,3061. The male population is little bite higher than that of female. There are 50.29% males and 49.71% females as found in the households census conducted in October 2019-February 2020. The average male-female ratio is 100, i.e., 100 males per 100 females which is similar with the national figure of 100 and significantly lower than Dhaka Division of 104.2. Package 4 area (Marco LPG Autogas Filling Station -Bairab Bridge West End Toll Plaza) is the lowest sex ratio 100:95 (95 male per 100 female) and package 1 (after Kanchpur Intersection to Sonpara Bus Stand) area is the height 100:108 (108 male per 100 female. The average household size is 4.62 which is also higher than the national household size of 4.44 and Dhaka Division (4.32) (BBS 2011). Package-wise distribution shows that package -1 (after Kanchpur Intersection to Sonpara Bus Stand) area is a highest population (6,231) and household size is 4.41 while package-12 (Khasikapon Bazar to Peer Habibur Rahman Chattar) is the lowest (1,728) of population and household size is 4.42.

Dependency ratios are a measure of the age structure of a population. They relate the number of individuals that are likely to be economically "dependent" on the support of others. Dependency ratios contrast the ratio of youths (ages 0-14) and the elderly (ages 65+) to the number of those in the working-age group (ages 15-64). Changes in the dependency ratio provide an indication of potential social support requirements resulting from changes in population age structures. As fertility levels decline, the dependency ratio initially falls because the proportion of youths decreases while the proportion of the population of working age increases. As fertility levels continue to decline, dependency ratios eventually increase because the proportion of the population of working age starts to decline and the proportion of elderly persons continues to increase. 74. Total Dependency Ratio - The total dependency ratio is the ratio of combined youth population (ages 0-14) and elderly population (ages 65+) per 100 people of working age (ages 15-64). A high total dependency ratio indicates that the working-age population and the overall economy face a greater burden to support and provide social services for youth and elderly persons, who are often economically dependent. 75. Youth Dependency Ratio - The youth dependency ratio is the ratio of the youth population (ages 0-14) per 100 people of working age (ages 15-64). A high youth dependency ratio indicates that a greater investment needs to be made in schooling and other services for children. 76. Elderly Dependency Ratio - The elderly dependency ratio is the ratio of the elderly population (ages 65+) per 100 people of working age (ages 15-64). Increases in the elderly dependency ratio put added pressure on governments to fund pensions and healthcare.

77. Potential support ratio - The potential support ratio is the number of working-age people (ages 15-64) per one elderly person (ages 65+). As a population ages, the potential support ratio tends to fall, meaning there are fewer potential workers to support the elderly 3. 78. The dependent population of the total alignment is estimated as 33.1% and the dependency ratio is 100:49 3.7 Marital Status 79. The survey findings show that in the project area irrespective of age group the rate of married people is higher than that of unmarried people. The following table (Table 26) shows the marital status of population in the Project area. The number of separated and divorced category is minimal compared to the rest of the categories. However, no child and early marriage is found in the Project area during the census. Table 26 Marital Status by Age Group in the Project Area

The higher education level is in primary (44%) followed by secondary (34%); higher the levels of education lower the percentages of literate population. More than 9% people have no schooling and more than 3% people can sign only. Apart from primary levels of education the percentages of all level, males are higher than that of females. The rate of higher education is negligible in the Project area due to the lack of opportunity and lack of interest of the people. The illiteracy rate in the Project area, however, is lower i.e., only 6% are found as illiterate (Table 27). In Bangladesh, 27.24% of population aged seven years and above (BBS,2011, HIES-2010) are illiterate. Table 27 Distribution of Affected Population (7 Years and Above) by Education Level

3.10 Income and Poverty 82. Based on Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS 2011) and yearly inflation (average 6.50% per year) as of 2018, the poverty line4 income of the affected HHs has been considered up to BDT 120,000 per year (10,000 per month) for the HHs size of 4.73 people. Table 29 shows that 509 (5.7%) of the households are under poverty level followed by National average of poverty. These HHs having income under poverty level will be eligible for special support as per entitlement matrices of the project. Table 29 Annual Income of the Affected Households

Vulnerable households have been defined as per the guideline of ADB SPS. Vulnerable groups considered in this RP are (i) household heads having annual average income below national poverty line; (ii) households headed by elderly/disabled people having annual average income below national poverty line; (iii) women headed households having annual average income below national poverty line, (iv) landless; and (v) Indgenoues Peoples. Women headed or elderly/disabled headed households with annual average income above national poverty line are not found vulnerable during the Socioeconomic Survey. During the Census/IoL survey, no indigenous population, ethnic minority or affected persons of low social

4 According to Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) the lower poverty line for HH size of 4.72 in 2011 for Dhaka region was Tk. 6,458.86 per HH/month. Acknowledging the national inflation rates by BBS based on consumer price for the country (Average 6.5% per year for 7 years up to 2018) and an average HH size for the affected population being 4.73, BDT 10,056 say BDT 10,000 income per HH/month has been adopted as the 2018 poverty line for the project. 27 group or caste were identified. Total 1,195 households were found under the vulnerable groups (Table 31). Table 31 List of the Vulnerable Households

The entitlement matrix has provision for one-time grant of BDT 20,000 (Loss Item 19) in addition to eligible compensation. Furthermore, there are provisions for training for income with seed grant money amounting to BDT 30,000 (Loss Item 21) to one selected member of vulnerable households.

3.13 Status of Landlessness due to Project Interventions 86. It has been found that, most of the non-titled holder APs (88%) have land outside the Right of Way (RoW). Non-titled holder APs who are doing business in the project area has residential lands outside the RoW. Non-titled holder APs are 66% of the total relocated HHs. On the other hand, all the Encroachers have land outside the RoW and only 37% Non-titled holder APs have land outside the RoW. Therefore, only a small segment of affected persons will not have land outside the RoW. Table 32 Percentage of HHs having land outside RoW

3.14 Informal Settlers 87. The survey identified 2,382 informal settlers (squatters) located on RHD land (see Table 33). These impacts are mostly felt in the hat/bazar areas, especially in the Bhairab Bazar. Most of them losing commercial structures (84.42%) in the bazaar (local market) areas long the RoW. Another important portion of them will lose their residential structure (14.74%) and commercial cum residential (0.84%), with major concentration in Narsingdi, Bhairab and Sylhet areas.These informal settlers will receive compensation based on Loss Item 6 of the Entitlement Matrix.

3.15 Population by Religion and Ethnicity 88. The majority (95.3%) of the affected population is Muslim (from Islam religion) as their religion. The remaining percentage of the affected population is from other religions like Hinduism and Christian. Based on FGD and census conducted in the project area, there was no known indigenous peoples (IPs) in the project area. The people in the project area live harmoniously regardless of religion and ethnic origin, and they consider themselves as peace loving people. 3.16 Alternate source of Income outside RoW 89. Socioeconomic Survey data shows that most of the affected persons have alternate source of Income outside the RoW. Around 21% APs have Small Business, 17% of APs engaged in Agricultural works, whereas around 14% of the APs are engaged in Motor Mechanic works outside the RoW. Table 33 shows the detail about the Alternate Income source of the Affected Persons. Table 34 Alternate source of Income of the APs

3.17 Severity of Loss of APs 90. During socioeconomic survey it has been observed that, Affected Persons who lost more than 10% of their productive assets (income generating) have own land other than the affected land. Most of them have other means of livelihood also. About 686 APs which is 7.7% of the total Affected Households (8,905 ) have no alternative means of livelihoods. Therefore, this segment of Affected Households has been included in the Vulnerable group among the APs (Table 31) 29

3.18 Summary and Implications 91. The Project impacts have both physical and economic dimensions. It is evident from the analysis presented in this chapter that the impacts are more on small businesses/shops. Male members have greater mobility compared to the females, who largely work within the household except for poorer women who reported earning their living as wage labourers. The occupational and income differences are also significantly different between men and women in the Project area. Among the affected households, those without titles and live on RHD land will experience significant adverse impacts. The resettlement policy and mitigation measures outlined in this Project including livelihood rehabilitation programme, have been tailored to address these impacts.

4.1 Introduction 92. Public consultation is an essential part of the social safeguard planning process aimed at involving the local stakeholders in the Project development and implementation phases of the Project cycle. The stakeholders, in this process, are able to provide inputs and engage themselves in developing measures to minimize and/or avoid impacts and development mitigation measures, based on local needs and conditions. Potential Project impacts were disclosed and discussed in stakeholder’s meetings along the alignment. These meetings, which were attended by both men and women, provided venues to influence, share their views, and raise their voices in decision making processes leading to sustainable resettlement 4.2 Key Stakeholders of the Project 93. The consultation, discussion and participation processes start by identifying the stakeholders of the Project. The stakeholders of the Project were identified through a ‘stakeholder mapping exercise’ conducted by the field survey team members. The exercise was done by categorizing the potential affected/benefited persons and host communities who have a stake in the Project. The identified primary stakeholders are the landowners, traders, farmers, service holders, day labourers, rickshaw/vanpullers etc., who will be directly and/or indirectly affected by the Project interventions. 94. The identified secondary stakeholders are the public representatives, local Government administration, the executing agency, financing institutions, consultants, construction contractors, suppliers and service providers. The list of secondary stakeholders for the Project includes the RHD, ADB, DC- Narayanganj, Narsingdi, Kishoreganj, Brahmanbaria, Habiganj, Moulvibazar and Sylhet, public representatives, Project Preparation Consultants including Social Safeguard Consultants, Implementing NGO/Agencies (CF), and Management/ Supervision Consultants. 4.3 Approaches and Methodology 95. The approach for discussion, consultation and participation was structured in such a way that it would offer a platform to all the stakeholders where they may discuss, share and debate their opinions. The GoB acts and policies as well as policy/guidelines of the Project financiers (ADB) have been followed in designing and performing the consultation and participation process. The process was initiated through conducting necessary stakeholder consultation meetings (SCMs) in the Project area. Despite the local practice of ‘pordah’ (seclusion of women) from public gatherings, the team encouraged the participation of women in the stakeholder’s meetings. Thus, both men and women were in attendance in the consultation meetings, particularly in primary stakeholders’ consultation meetings. These SCMs were preceded by meetings with local administration at the Upazila and District levels. In sum, multi-level consultations were carried out, starting with initial meetings with local administration, SCMs, and FGDs. The process continued at individual level also through various surveys undertaken in this Project. 4.3.1 Social Survey 96. A number of social surveys were conducted such as (i) a census and inventory of losses survey, (ii) a socioeconomic survey, (iii) a property valuation/market survey, and (iv) marking of the properties and video filming, etc. The census covered 100% Inventory of Losses and socioeconomic background of the APs. The house/structure marking along with video filming was also done. These surveys and associated activities conducted in the field have brought the specific affected persons into an effective consultation and participation process. The survey covered 9,296 households for both IoL and Socioeconomic information. The Property Valuation Survey (PVS) (Market Assessment) was conducted over 160 Mouzas and 801 persons were interviewed (at least 5 persons from each mouza) from each affected mouza where land acquisition is required.

4.3.2 Stakeholder Consultation Meeting 97. In order to assess stakeholders’ needs, expectations, perceptions, and choices, and to ensure their rights and voices a two-fold consultation process was carried out during the survey. In this regard, SCMs were conducted firstly with both the primary and secondary stakeholders and later, affected persons within the occupation and gender based groups were consulted through FGDs. 98. The consultations are conducted to ensure that adequate and timely information is made available to the people and communities of the project area and sufficient opportunities are provided to them to voice their opinions and participate in influencing the upcoming project decisions and processes. The main objectives of the public consultation meetings are to ensure timely, effective and multi-directional communications between the project and the relevant stakeholders and communities. So that people can get the benefits of the projects and the project get their cooperation to ensure successful implementation of the project. 99. Ten (10) Stakeholder Consultation Meetings (SCMs) were carried out at twelve packages of the Project. The total number of participants in ten SCMs was 809. Among them were 795 males and 14 were females. These meetings were held at i. Morjal Bus Stand, Raipur, Narsingdi; ii. Orbit Nursing,Basail, Narsingdi; iii. Haji Nur Uddin high School, Rupganj, Narayanganj; iv. Madhabdi SP institute, Madhabdi, Narayanganj; v. Madhabpur Govt. primary School, Madhabpur, Habiganj; vi. Khatihata, B,baria Sadar, B.

Goala Bazar Union Parishad, Osmaninagar, Sylhet. Partial Attendance list Pictures of SCMs is attached as Annex-C and Annex-D. 100. Consultant’s Resettlement Specialist, Environmental Specialist, Design Engineer and other senior professionals were present in the Meetings. Field Supervisors and Enumerators with the help of community leaders arranged the meeting. UP Chairmen and UP Members, local elites and political leaders provided all sorts of cooperation to organize the meeting besides the field survey team invited people through written invitation letter and in some cases they made door to door communication. In selecting the venues various factors were considered to ensure easy access by all type of participants. Table 34 shows the detail.

4.4.3 Outcome of Focus Group Discussions 108. Sixty-one FGDs among different groups of people were conducted. In all the FGDs, a key demand was cash compensation by RHD prior to relocation. They expressed desire to stay around the bazar areas in order to continue their businesses. Most of the participants demanded compensation before their shifting. It is also mentioned that “we need sufficient advance notice for shifting.” Those attended clearly mentioned that they are not interested in changing their occupations and stay in business in the future. They also requested for assistance from INGO to support them in identifying another place to relocate (rent or buy) in proximity of the RHD land. FGD participants, particularly those who are RHD leaseholders, demanded that RHD gives them “priority” in re-allocating shops after modernization of the road

38 communication. Also, they should be allowed to operate within the hat/bazar area for businesses. 4.4.4 Consultation Outcomes and Policy Issues 109. The outcomes of the consultation meetings were very helpful in minimizing the impacts of the Project. First, the location of all the , schools, madarasa, temples and other CPRs are presented to the designer to save them. Second, compensation for the affected structures on RHD land will be given by the Project at market rates. Third, based on discussion at the consultation meetings, the Project has designed special compensation packages for the poorer families and livelihood restoration for the affected families. It was explained clearly at the meetings that land for land as an alternative was not an option in this Project; however, adequate compensation will be paid and the Project will assist their location and rehabilitation of the affected families. Finally, the rapid assessment and FGDs provided helpful data for designing appropriate level of supports for relocation and re-establishment of businesses by the informal settlers. 4.4.5 Consultation and Participation during Project Implementation 110. A consultation and participation mechanism have been developed by engaging the primary stakeholders in local committees for instance, grievance redress committees (GRC) and Property Valuation Advisory Committee (PVAC). The INGO to be appointed by the Project for the implementation of RP will continue the processes of consultation and participation by involving the affected households and the beneficiaries as well. Thus, consultation will remain as an integral part of Project management and implementation. 4.4.6 Disclosure of the Resettlement Plan 111. As per the guidelines of ADB, the EA will disclose the RP in a summarized form as an Information Brochure and Booklet in both Bangla and English language to the local stakeholders immediately after the RP is approved by the co-financier. Copies of the RP and the Booklet will be available in DC offices in Narayanganj, Narsingdi, Kishoreganj, Brahmanbaria, Habiganj, Moulvibazar and Sylhet, and in the sub-districts (Upazilas) within the Project area for the general public and civil society members. In disclosure sessions, the extent of Project impacts on their communities and individual households will be fully disclosed to the directly affected persons and communities. The policies for mitigation of adverse social impacts will also be disclosed to the affected persons. In this regard, meaningful consultations will be arranged by the INGO with affected persons for enabling their participation in preparing, implementing, and monitoring of the RP. 112. The Booklet will be in Bangla and English which will briefly present (i) the Project impacts; (ii) mitigation measures and entitlement matrix; (iii) grievance redress mechanisms; (iv) the institutional framework for Project implementation; (v) schedule for implementation and monitoring arrangements; and (vi) a set of common Q&A about the Project for affected people. The RP will be also uploaded in the RHD website after obtaining concurrence from ADB and approval from the Ministry of MoRTB, GoB.

5.1 National Laws and Regulations 113. The principal legal instrument governing land acquisition in Bangladesh is Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017 (ARIPA, 2017). The ARIPA, 2017 requires that compensation be paid for (i) land and assets permanently acquired (including standing crops, trees, houses); and (ii) any other damages caused by such acquisition. The Act also provides guideline for the acquisition of properties belonging to religious organizations like mosques, temples, pagodas and graveyards if they are acquired for public interest. The ARIPA, 2017, however, excluded the acquisition of properties used by the public for the purpose of religious worship, graveyards and cremation grounds. The act stipulates certain safeguards for the land owners and provides for payment of “fair value” for the properties acquired. The act, however, does not cover Project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/ squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure RV of the property acquired. The act has no provision of resettlement assistance and transitional allowances for restoration of livelihoods of the non-titled affected persons. 5.2 Legal Framework for Land Acquisitions in Bangladesh 114. The principal legal instrument governing land acquisition in Bangladesh is ARIPA, 2017. The ARIPA 2017 requires that compensation be paid for (i) land and assets permanently acquired (including standing crops, trees, houses); and (ii) any other damages caused by such acquisition. The Act also provides guidelines for the acquisition of properties belonging to religious organizations like mosques, temples, pagodas and graveyards if they are acquired for public interest. The ARIPA, however, excluded the acquisition of properties used by the public for the purpose of religious worship, graveyards and cremation grounds. The Act stipulates certain safeguards for the land owners and provides for payment of “fair value” for the properties acquired. 115. The Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017 (Act No. of 2017) [21st September 2017] Section 4. Publication of preliminary notice of acquisition of immovable property: (a) Whenever it appears to the DC that any property in any locality is needed or is likely to be needed for any public purpose or in the public interest, h/she shall cause a notice to be published at convenient places on or near the property in the prescribed form and manner stating that the property is proposed to be acquired; (b) In case of acquisition of immovable property for any non-governmental person or organization, whatever be the quantity of the immovable property, sanction of the government must be taken before the initiation of acquisition proceeding; (c) The DC, under sub-section (1): 116. before the publication of notice, in the prescribed manner and form, shall record the real nature, condition an infrastructure built there in, crops and trees of the proposed immovable property in video or still picture or any other technology and thereafter prepare a report accordingly; 117. after the publication of notice, in the prescribed manner and form, shall prepare a joint- list of Requiring persons or organizations and persons interested. (a) If the nature of land is changed in reality from its recent record of rights (RoR), the DC, at the time of preparation of the joint list, shall decide about the change of the nature of the land; (b) The DC shall mention in the joint list, in the prescribed manner, if any house or infrastructure is built or is being built in the proposed immovable property for acquisition, in contravention of public purpose for illegal gain; (c) The joint list prepared sub-section 3(b) shall be affixed in the notice board of the local land office and in the convenient place of the project;

40

(d) The DC shall not record the change of the nature of land in the joint list, if after the initiation of proceeding under sub-section 3(a), the nature of the land is changed by building houses or infrastructures in bad motive; (e) If any person is aggrieved by the decision of the DC under sub-section 8, he may file an appeal to the Commissioner within the next 7 working days. (f) The Commissioner, in the prescribed manner, shall hear the appeal under sub- section 8 and shall provide with the decision within next 15 working days and in case of a nationally important project, shall provide with the decision within the next 10 working days; (g) The decision of the Commissioner under sub-section 9 shall be deemed to be final; (h) If there is any disposal of appeal under sub-section 9 or no appeal is preferred within the prescribed period in sub-section 8, within the next 24 hours, the concerned persons shall in his/her own cost remove the houses or infrastructures from the proposed immovable property, otherwise the DC shall take steps to evict those in accordance with the existing provisions of law; (i) The DC may, after choosing the place for nationally important project, by order, impose control over the sale of plots and building of infrastructures thereon; and (j) Generally religious places, graves or crematoriums can be taken into acquisition; Provided that, if it essential in public purpose or public interest, by relocating and rebuilding, in the own money of the Requiring persons or organizations, it may be taken into acquisition. 118. Explanation: The term “purpose in contravention of public interest in this section means the purpose for obstructing in the implementation of the project, creating hindrance or doing anything that retards the implementation of a project or doing something to get monetary benefit by compensation. 119. The DC in all cases, determine “market value” of acquired assets on the date of notice of acquisition (notice under section 4 of the Act). The DCs then add 200% premium of the assessed value, which becomes “cash compensation under law” (CCL) of all acquired assets due to compulsory acquisition. The CCL paid for land is generally less than the “market value” as owners customarily report lower values during registration to avoid and/or pay lower taxes. If land acquired has standing crops cultivated by tenant (bargadar) under a legally constituted written agreement, the law requires that part of the compensation money be paid in cash to the tenants as per the agreement. The law requires that the Government will auction the salvaged materials, upon payment of compensation. 5.3 Co-financier (ADB) Safeguards Policies and Guidelines 120. The Project co-financier, ADB has Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) (2009) for social and resettlement safeguards that recognise and address the resettlement and rehabilitation (R&R) impacts of the affected persons irrespective of their titles and requires preparation of RP in every instance where involuntary resettlement occurs. In brief, the policy requirements are: (a) Avoid or at least minimize impacts where possible i.e. explore viable alternative Project designs to avoid and/or minimize involuntary resettlement; (b) Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, avoid and/or prevent forced eviction and provide effective remedy to minimize negative impacts; (c) Provide resettlement support and/or sites to communities impacted by the Project, including host communities; (d) Pay compensation for acquired assets at the RV; (e) Enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all affected persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups; 41

(f) Planning through a survey and/ or census of displaced persons, including gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks; (g) Informal displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement; options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation and M & E of resettlement programmes; (h) Pay particular attention to the needs of the vulnerable groups, especially those below poverty line, the landless, the elderly, household headed by women, women and children and indigenous people, and those without title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations; (i) Establish a grievance redress mechanism for dispute resolution support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population; (j) Provide resettlement assistance to displaced persons, including non-titled persons; (k) Socioeconomic surveys and a census are to be conducted, with appropriate socioeconomic baseline data to identify all persons who will be displaced by the Project and to assess the Project’s socioeconomic impacts on them; (l) The social impact assessment will identify individuals and groups who may be differentially or disproportionately affected by the Project because of the disadvantaged or vulnerable status; (m) Resettlement Plans will elaborate displaced persons entitlements, the income and lively hood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget and a time-bound implementation schedule; and (n) Disclose the Resettlement Plan and other relevant information in a form and language(s) accessible to key stakeholders, civil society, particularly affected groups and the general public. 5.4 Gap Between Government Laws and ADB Policies 121. There are evident gaps in the ARIPA 2017 for land acquisition and ADB policy and guidelines related to land acquisition, compensation and involuntary resettlement. A brief summary of the gaps between ARIPA, 2017 and ADB is in order. 122. Generally, the ARIPA, 2017 does not recognize unauthorized occupants on the Government land and there is no clear indication about avoiding or minimizing displacement. ADB policy strongly requires avoidance or at least minimizing adverse impacts through alternative design options. 123. The adverse social impacts are not entirely recognized by the ARIPA, 2017 for instance, there are no provisions for resettlement of the displaced population, whereas, ADB policy require not only RSs and support but uphold and at least restore pre-project standard of living of the affected people. 124. The ARIPA 2017 pays little attention to public consultation and stakeholders engagements in Project planning and execution. ADB policy requires meaningful consultation with the affected people and other stakeholders to disseminate Project goals and objectives to obtain stakeholders’ views and inputs in Project planning and implementation. 125. Finally, ADB policy pays special attention to gender issues and vulnerable groups in the resettlement processes, particularly the non-titled and the affected poor households. The policy gaps have been bridged by additional Project-specific measures adopted in the RP. The Project has minimized displacement of people as much as possible by exploring all viable design alternatives. Extensive community consultations were held during Project preparation and will continue during implementation of the Project. Adequate compensation; RC (for lost assets and income); and rehabilitation and livelihood assistance will be provided so that APs can improve or at least restore their standard of living at pre-project level. Special attention will be given to vulnerable APs including elderly and women headed households. In sum, the added measures in this Project fully comply with ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) (2009). Table 39 provides a summary of the key measures taken to comply with ADB policy

42 requirements. These measures are derived from “good practices” in resettlement management in other externally funded (i.e., ADB, World Bank) Projects in Bangladesh. Table 40 Summary of Gaps and Additional Gap-filling Measures Adopted in the Project

5.5 Eligibility and Cut-Off-Dates 126. Eligibility to receive compensation and resettlement assistance will be limited by “cut- off” dates. There will be two cut-off-dates in this Project. The first cut-off-date is for titled owners only to be notified by the DC under Section 4 of the ARIPA 2017 informing the landowners of the Project right-of-way land for the double track. This will be done once Land Acquisition Plans (LAPs) are submitted by RHD to respective DCs. The second cut-off-date is called the “social cut-off-date”-based on the census for identification and eligibility for all “non- land” related entitlements. The social cut-off-dates were set during the survey and disclosed publicly in the consultation meetings and also during household-level interviews in the concerned affected villages and communities. In this Project, the household level census was conducted in the three sections at different dates. Table 41 lists the cut-off dates to be used in different sections for eligibility by any non-titled persons such as squatters or other informal settlers and additional benefits under the Project entitlement matrix.

Source: Census and IoL Survey October 2019 -February 2020 127. The census has identified and established the households living in the Project area, including the squatters/informal settlers on RHD land and will be affected by the Project. It has also established a record of all losses at household level, including structures, trees and communal structure. Any persons moving into the Project area after the cut-off dates will not be entitled for compensation from DCs or any assistance from RHD. 5.6 RHD Experience and Commitments to Resettlement 128. RHD policy commitments for resettlement are evident from many Projects–for instance, the ongoing SASEC-2 Project, Greater Dhaka Sustainable Transport Project, completed Dhaka-Chittagong 4 Lane Project, Kanchpur-Meghna Gomati Bridge Project. In all the Projects, RHD took efforts and minimized negative impacts, consulted the affected people on policy aspects and implemented RPs as social development activities. These are very much in conformity with ADB policies. Likewise, RHD incompliance with the ADB policy requirements and as well as past experience from Project implementation, confirms the following principles: 129. The L & R impacts would be avoided or minimized as much as possible through alternate design options; (a) A summary of the RP with the entitlement matrix will be disclosed to the affected persons in local language; (b) Compensation for land and other assets acquired will be paid prior to the start of civil work in accordance with the provisions described in this document; (c) People moving in the Project area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to any assistance; (d) Appropriate grievance redress mechanism will be established to ensure speedy resolution of disputes; (e) All activities related to Resettlement Planning, implementation, and monitoring would ensure the involvement of women and other vulnerable groups; and 45

(f) There should be a clause in the contract agreement that the construction contractor will compensate any loss or damage in connection with collection and transportation of borrow-materials. 130. In accordance with the resettlement principles adopted in this Project, all displaced households and persons will be entitled to a combination of compensation packages in cash and kind and resettlement assistance depending on the nature of ownership rights on lost assets, scope of the impacts including socioeconomic vulnerability of the displaced persons and measures to support livelihood restoration if livelihood impacts are envisaged. The displaced persons will be entitled to (a) compensation for the loss of land at RV; (b) compensation for loss of structures (residential/ commercial) and other immovable assets at their RV; (c) compensation for trees, crops and fish stock to legally or socially recognized owners at current market price; (d) assistance for loss of business/wage income; (e) assistance for shifting of structures; (f) rebuilding and/or restoration of community resources/facilities; (g) special assistance to women headed and vulnerable households with support t livelihood and income restoration; and (h) assistance from the INGO in identifying available premises to rent or buy from private owners. 131. In sum, RHD will provide cash compensation and support the relocation and resettlement of the affected households to the extent possible to ensure that all affected households are resettled and rehabilitated. There will not be any forced eviction without payments of compensation. The affected households and communities will be informed well ahead of relocation schedule. The difference between the CCL and RC as determined by PVAC will be paid by the INGO. RHD will be involved through the INGO in meaningful consultation and participation of the affected people in Project implementation. 5.7 Compensation Payment Procedure 132. RHD will ensure that the properties (land, structure and non-structure assets) to be displaced by the Project will be compensated at their full RC determined by the Property Valuation Advisory Committee (PVAC) as per the RP. The modalities for payment of compensation and other assistance for assets, incomes and livelihoods, resettlement assistance for substituting and restoration of loss of income and workdays by the relocated households are explained in section 5.8 below. All provisions in the entitlement, including assistance, shall be paid prior to physical and economic displacement. 5.8 Procedure of Land Acquisition and Compensation Payment to Titled Holders 133. RHD produces land acquisition proposal to DC with Administrative Approval from the MoRTB on the acquisition. Upon approval of the LAP from the Ministry of Land (MoL) or from the Divisional Commissioner, DC serves notice to the recorded owner of the affected property for public appraisal. DC and RHD conduct joint verification of the affected properties. DC collects prices of land, structures, trees, crops from Sub-register office, PWD, BFD, DAE and DAM, respectively for valuation as per Government rules. Upon placement of fund by RHD, the DC serves notice to the titled APs for receiving cash compensation under law (CCL). The difference between the CCL and RV as determined by PVAC will be paid by the INGO. Land acquisition and compensation payment steps are shown in the Figure 3.

The non-titled EPs, i.e., those have no legal ownership of the affected property but socially recognized and enlisted during census, SES and or Joint Verification Survey JVS on the RoW will be compensated following a separate procedure. The Act, 2017 has no provision to compensate these types of affected people, but the ADB prescribes to address the non- titled EPs as stated in the SSP 2009 explicitly states that such people cannot be denied resettlement assistance. 135. Steps to be followed in paying resettlement benefits to non-titled EPs: (a) As per tripartite JVS and consult the census data, a final list of APs will be prepared by the INGO; (b) Individual identity number will be created against the name of each EP; (c) Photograph of the EPs will be taken and ID cards will be prepared; 47

(d) The INGO will prepare EPs file and entitlement card (EP file & EC) for each of the EPs; (e) The INGO will assist the EPs opening Bank Account in their names should they not have a Bank account. If the EP is a woman, ensure that the Bank account is in her name; (f) The tenants of the house or commercial premises will collect documents (g) In favour of their tenancy or identification from the owner of the structure which will be attested by the concern UP Chairman/Ward Councillor/Mayor; (h) Wage labourers will collect certificate from the employer which will be attested by the concern UP Chairman/Ward Councillor/Mayor; (i) The ID card will be jointly signed by the RHD and INGO representative and photograph will be attested by the UP Chairman/Ward Councillor/Mayor concerned; and (j) The INGO will assist the Project/PMU in preparing payment debit voucher as per EP file and EC and those will be disbursed in Account Payee Cheque in public place or office of the UP Chairman issuing prior notice to the EPs. 136. The schematic view of the process of compensation payment to the non-titled EPs is presented in Figure 4.

6.1 Introduction 137. The GoB and ADB policies define the entitlement of compensation, assistance and benefits for APs who lose all or part of their physical and non-physical assets, including homes, communities, productive lands, fishing areas, important cultural sites, commercial properties, tenancy, income-earning opportunities, as a consequence of the Project. The unit of entitlement may be an individual, a household, a family or a community. The unit of loss will determine the unit of entitlement. If more than one person has customary rights to a resource (for example, Common property), the compensation may be shared by all. Households headed by women are to be recognised and compensated equally with households headed by men. Widowed women or divorcees living within male-headed households and having no legal rights to land will be considered as separate units for relocation purposes. All provisions in the entitlement, including assistance, shall be paid prior to physical and economic displacement. 6.2 Eligibility Policy and Entitlement Matrix

138. All APs will be entitled to compensation and resettlement assistance based on severity of impacts. Nevertheless, eligibility to receive compensation and other assistance will be limited by the cut-off date. The absence of legal title will not bar APs from compensation and assistance, as specified in the entitlement matrix (Table 36).

139. An Entitlement Matrix has been prepared on the basis of information derived from census and inventory of losses (IoL) survey of the households, shops and community properties affected within the Project corridor right-of-way. It identifies the categories of impact based on the census and IoL and shows the entitlements for each type of loss. The matrix describes the units of entitlements for compensating the loss of land, structure, business and various resettlement benefits. The affected persons of Improvement of the Existing Dhaka (Katchpur)- Sylhet National Highway will be entitled to:

• Compensation for the loss of land, crops/trees at their RC; • Compensation for structures (residential/commercial) and other immovable assets at their RC; • Assistance for loss of business/wage income; • Assistance for shifting and reconstruction; • Cash assistance for renting and accommodation; • Re-building and/or restoration of community resources/facilities; and • Income and livelihood restoration assistance. 140. The resettlement benefits for indirect losses will be directly paid by RHD through RP implementing INGO. The APs will be allowed to fell and take away trees and salvaged materials of affected structures free of cost without delaying the Project works. The crop owners will be given one-month prior notice to harvest the crops if it is at or near harvesting time. If the Project damages the standing crops, the actual owners of crops will be entitled for compensation for crops at market price. Any trees planted on RHD land by local people is required for the Project work, the owner/planter of the trees will be eligible for compensation. The INGO will assist the RHD in preparation of necessary papers (ID cards, EP/EC, indent, debit voucher, etc.) for making payment of resettlement benefits to the EPs.

The households who will be physically relocated are either titled homestead/business owners, informal settlers (squatters) on RHD land and renters. Most of the affected structures in urban or semi urban centres tend to be businesses and in rural areas homesteads. 146. Affected HHs particularly squatters business units wanted to be remain within the vicinity to continue their business When asked about modalities for compensation, the survey shows that 70.6% of households would opt for cash compensation either for overall loss 29.4% (mostly private land owners) said that they would rather get land for land. (detail is in Table 45). Table 46: APs’ Choice for Resettlement Options

Source: Census and IoL Survey October 2019 -February 2020 147. The relocation of scattered homesteads in rural and urban areas along the present Dhaka-Sylhet Highway areas along about 222.50 km linear stretch is not pragmatic as it would imply concentrating the households in a few identified places that would be away from their existing source of livelihood (farming/business). Most of the land owners will not lose a substantial quantity of land due to linear acquisition and will be able to relocate on their residual land. Non-title holders losing a homestead in rural sections will either relocate on residual land or rent within proximity as shown in Table 32. They should have sufficient cash compensation for the loss of their structure and transfer and reconstruction allowance to afford rent. 148. It is believed that the compensations, allowances and assistance measures proposed under this RP are sufficient to enable affected households to secure alternative spaces for their homesteads and businesses as presented in Table 20. The cash option for titled owners as well as informal settlers’ is very attractive. As for renters, who will receive the equivalent to two months rent as well as moving grant, which is sufficient for them to find an alternative option. This should address the question of affordability of renting space in urban centres. 7.2.5 Relocation of Common Property Resources 149. Along 222.50 km corridor RoW of Dhaka-Sylhet Highway, total 217 CPRs, 45 Govt. office, 13 RHD structures and 1 NGO office will require relocation since primary structures of these CPRs are affected at a limit so that the remaining portion will not be re-usable. According to the entitlement policy all CPRs will be given cash compensation for the land, structure, transfer and reconstruction grants like other structures for relocation of each structure. 67

Additional grants will be provided for its reconstruction and improvement. Dismantling and reconstruction cash assistance will be provided as per assessed value of PVAC. Table 47 Number of Common Property Resources, Govt. Office, NGO and Association Requiring Relocation

RHD will use available public (khas) land or seek voluntary donation of land by the local beneficiary communities for the reconstruction of the CPRs. If khas lands and/or voluntary donation are not available, RHD will make negotiated settlement over any new purchases of land for the civic and social/religious infrastructures. In all cases (voluntary donation or negotiated settlement), RHD will engage in meaningful consultations with the affected people, including those without titles to assets. The particular attention will be given in record keeping on negotiation methods, valuation, transactions and other activities related to these issues to comply with Safeguards Requirements of ADB.

8.1 Introduction 151. The project will result in the disruption and loss of income and livelihood temporarily or permanently. The RP has provisions for interim support for loss of income and to mainstream alternative income generating schemes or enhancement of existing livelihood resources so that AHs can either continue their previous occupation or start new venture or undertake an alternative occupation. 8.2 Impacts on Livelihood and Income 152. The impacts on livelihood will be largely limited, affected persons will experience loss of livelihood sources mainly due to temporary disruption and loss of shops/businesses, and income from, rented structures and agricultural lands. The displaced households will experience temporary dislocation in their income and workdays. In addition, wage earners such as employees of shops and businesses and those working on the affected agricultural lands will also incur income losses. A total of 26,478 such households will experience direct and indirect impact on their income (Table 48). Table 48 Type of Impact on Income of Affected Households

The livelihood development training will be identified during Project implementation by the INGO. A need assessment survey will be conducted among the affected vulnerable HHs to obtain their opinion and needs for training on income generating activities. Table 49

70 presents details of various activities being anticipated under the livelihood development training based on the survey conducted with APs. The options were multiple and the APs opted more than one field for having training. The majority of the AHs prefer to restore their livelihoods through tailoring (30.90%) followed by business (27%), driving (22.80%), technical training such as computer, mobile repairing, etc. (20.40%), livestock (13.70%), motor mechanics (13.70%) and agriculture (9.50%). These will be further reviewed by the INGO during implementation phase through a need assessment focused on the eligible households to further target the available skills and/or need for skill training.

In addition to trade training, the INGO will provide basic financial management briefing and assist participants in developing business plans for investments. 7.3 Employment in Construction Work 166. The construction activities under the Project will require many skilled and unskilled labourers for construction of road embankment, road bridges/culverts, staff sheds etc. The contractor(s) will require to give preference to hiring affected persons (with ID), including women, willing to work in Project construction activities. Provisions in the general contract conditions also require the contractors to pay equal wages to men and women without any gender discrimination. Affected women willing to work in Project construction will form labour contracting society (LCS) with the help of INGO and be deployed by the contractor in embankment slope turfing, watering, tree plantation, etc. Or any other suitable works. Employment in the Project construction will act as an added source of income in the income and livelihood restoration processes of the APs. The length of the employment will be decided by the EA and work Contractor during RP implementation period.

71

9.1 Grievance Redress Committee 167. A two-tier bottom up GRC system will be established in this Project. At first level, there will be GRCs at the local level, hereafter called Local GRC (Union Parishads or municipality level); and second, GRC at the Project level to give room for grievances to be fairly reviewed. These GRCs will be established through gazette notifications from the MoRTB. The APs will be informed through public consultation that they have a right to have their grievances redressed by the local committees as well as by the Project management. The APs can also call upon the support of the implementing NGO (INGO) or Agencies engaged to implement the RP to assist them in presenting their grievances or queries to the GRC. Other than disputes relating to ownership right under the court of law, the GRC will review grievances involving all resettlement assistance, relocation and other support. The local GRCs (at the Union Parishad or municipal level) will hear the grievances first. Only unresolved cases will be forwarded to the next second tier – Project-level GRC for further review and resolution. Grievances will be redressed within a month from the date of lodging the complaints. GRC decisions will be on a majority basis and will be disclosed and available for review by the stakeholders. If any disputant is unhappy or unsatisfied with the outcome of the Project level GRC, he/she may file cases in the court, or any time at the option of the disputant. 168. GRCs at the union or municipality level (community level) will be formed with representatives from RHD, local elected representatives from the Local Government Institutions (LGI), representatives of the affected persons (preferably women representative in case of women APs), and RP implementing NGO. There will a GRC in each union parishad or municipality affected by the Project to make it accessible both in terms of distance and time. 169. The member secretary of GRCs will be regularly available and accessible for APs to address concerns and grievances. Female UP member will participate in the grievance redress sessions when the complainant will be a female. The Legal Advisor of the INGO will support the GRC processes (both local and Project-levels) in terms of legal and other interpretation matters. 170. A PIB (Project Information Brochure) containing the GRM will be shared with all APs, and will be available at local project offices of EA and the INGO. This information will also be disseminated throughout the whole RP implementation period through Stakeholder Consultation Meetings and Focus Group Discussions. 9.2 Grievance Redress Mechanism 171. RHD will establish a grievance redress mechanism (GRM) to voice and resolve social and environmental concerns linked to the project and ensure greater accountability of the project authorities towards all affected persons. This mechanism is not intended to bypass the government’s own legal process, but is intended to provide a time-bound and transparent mechanism that is readily accessible to all segments of the affected people. The aggrieved party should be free to approach the national legal system at any time. All costs involved in resolving the complaints (meetings, consultations, communication and reporting / information dissemination) will be borne by the Project. The GRM structure is described in Table 49 below: Table 50 GRM Committee Structure

Level Members of the GRC at Different Levels

Community Level at Union • Project Manager, (Convener); Parishad/ Municipality • Deputy Project Manager, (member); • Representative of the RP Implementing NGO (Member Secretary); • Representative of concerned area (e.g. mayor, authorized councillor, union parishad chairman or authorized UP Member) (Member); and

Project Level (PI1U.) • Project Level (PIU.) Representative of Chief Engineer, RHD (convener) • Additional Project Director, - (Member) • CSC Resettlement Specialist

172. The NGO and RHD will try as much as possible to address grievances locally before these are submitted to the GRM. If grievances are not resolved, the following procedures and timeline are described Table 51 below. 173. ADB’s Accountability Mechanism. In addition to the project level GRM required by ADB’s SPS, ADB also has an Accountability Mechanism Policy (May 2012). However, while the project level GRM is the responsibility of the EA, the Accountability Mechanism is the responsibility of ADB. The accountability mechanism provides opportunities for people (2 or more complainants) that are adversely affected by ADB-financed projects to express their grievances, seek solutions, and report alleged violations of ADB’s operational policies and procedures, including safeguards policy. ADB’s accountability mechanism comprises (i) consultation led by ADB’s special project facilitator to assist people adversely affected by ADB- assisted projects in finding solutions to their concerns, and (ii) providing a process through which those affected by projects can file requests for compliance review by ADB’s Compliance Review Panel. Table 51 Grievance Redress Procedures

Step 1 The Project Implementing Agency informs PAHs about their losses and entitlements. If satisfied, the EPs representing the PAHs claim resettlement payments to INGO. If confused, proceed to step 2

Step 2 The EPs approaches the INGO field level officials for clarification. The INGO will clarify the EPs about their losses & entitlements as per RP Entitlement Matrix. If resolved, the EP claims resettlement payments to the INGO. If not resolved, proceed to Step 3

10.1 Introduction

175. The total estimated budget for implementation of the Resettlement Plan is BDT 41,620.53 million (USD 489.65 million) which is shown in Table 52. The costs for L & R for the Project have been estimated on the basis of Government-declared mouza rate of similar category of land adding 200% of premium as directed in the ARIPA 2017. From the property valuation survey, it has been observed that, in most of the cases usual transaction price of land is nearly same or sometimes higher compare to three times of mouza rate. Therefore, the budget for land has been estimated based on three times of average mouza rate. In addition, the Replacement Cost (RC) of physical assets with assessed RC for contemporary times which will finalized by the DC, and additional assistance for loss of income and vulnerabilities is given as per the resettlement policy framework. This budget is indicative of outlays for different expenditure categories assessed by census and IoL survey (October 2019-February 2020) for physical assets and estimates of land for acquisition.

176. The budget will be updated and adjusted once the land acquisition boundaries are finalised and Government adopts price of land and other assets based on the recommendations of the PVAC prior to implementation. RC of land and property will be updated annually if the PVAC at the district level justifies the same at the time of dispossession for any considerable price escalation.

The Replacement Cost for the affected lands has been estimated based on the average latest available Mouza rates collected from Upzaila Sub-Registry offices. This rate is declared by the Government for different category of land along the alignment. The derivation of Replacement Cost is described in Section 1.8.3. 178. The compensation has been estimated adding 200% premium for land as per the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017 of Bangladesh. A property valuation assessment survey was also conducted at field level to know the transaction price of each category of land. The final decision about the category of land will be taken by the DC office during LA process. Quantity of land is 1,439.41 acre (582.51 ha) and estimated budget for land acquisition is BDT 23,372.71 million which will be paid by respective DC office as CCL are shown Table 53. District wise land value calculation is shown in Annex-B. Table 52: Estimated Amount for Compensation for Land

Replacement Cost (RC) for both primary and secondary structures affected on private land or government land have been assessed during conducting surveys, Primary data collected from the people of various cross sections associated with construction has been considered. Apart from this experience from other development projects in the recent past have also taken into account for assessing the RC.

10.3.1 Replacement Cost for Primary Structures 180. The RC of affected primary structure has been assessed based on market survey conducted in October 2019 – February 2020 among various categories of knowledgeable persons including businessmen of construction materials, mason, carpenter, etc. to have actual cost of construction of structures. Experiences from similar types of projects have also be considered in assessing the RC of structures. PWD rates have also been considered in order to determine the unit rate of structures (Table 54). The total estimated amount for structure compensation is BDT 10,193.58 million.

11.2 Role and Responsibilities of Other Agencies Involved in Resettlement Implementation Process

11.2.1 Role of Deputy Commissioner’s Office 187. The DC has a key role to play in LA and R&R processes. He/she has the legal responsibility of acquiring land and paying compensation directly to the APs as per the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017. Furthermore, he/she has access to official records and the Legal/Administrative authority for title of land and eligibility of APs for Cash Compensation under Law (CCL) for land as well as for other assets, covered by the law. Taking into account the additional land acquisition requirement of the Project, there is a definite need to enhance the capacity of the LAO section of the concerned DCs, by means of engaging additional senior LA staff, for efficient processing of LA requests.

188. The EA and the implementing NGOs, will work with the representatives of the DCs during the Joint Verification of affected properties and the market survey of the properties, for ascertaining the current replacement cost, before budgeting the total compensation payable to the APs. The DC offices will receive funds for CCL payment from RHD and effect payment of CCL to the directly affected persons immediately, following issuance of notice under section 7 to facilitate quick disbursement of differentials, if any, by the RHD. Participation of the DC will be necessary in the host area meetings. Similarly, DC’s intervention/assistance will be required in matters such as land requisition, disposal of land ownership disputes, allotment of khas land and other surplus land.

11.2.2 Role of Construction Supervision Consultant 189. Roles of Construction Supervision Consultants (CSC) are to monitor civil works on a timely manner. The PSC will have a provision of one Social Safeguard Specialist who will be responsible for overseeing the resettlement plan implementation procedure as per policy of the RP. He will have every access to the database of the RP implementing NGO. He will develop a reporting format, which would be followed by the IA. The Social Safeguard Specialist of the PSC will prepare a monthly report on the implementation of the RP and submit to the Team Leader, CSC. The monthly progress report of the CSC would highlight on the progress of the RP implementation. They will ensure deployment of the Project affected persons in the 85 civil construction work based on eligibility of the PAPs. The Consultants will advise on any changes in the modalities of the implementation work, participate in meetings with the contracted NGO and RHD, and monitor the work of the implementing NGO in the field. The Consultants will also review, on behalf of RU, the implementation progress report, submitted by the contracted NGO, on a regular basis.

11.2.3 Role of Implementing NGO 190. It has now been generally recognised that the task of successfully implementing a RP requires special attitude, experience and skills in dealing with the grass roots level people, which are available among some reputed NGOs in the country. Therefore, it has been adopted as a Government policy to commission the services of such an NGO to assist in the implementation of this RP. RHD will engage the services of an INGO to oversee the implementation of the RP. The TOR of INGO is attached as Annex G. The principal task of the implementing NGO would be to identify the Project affected HHs/business enterprises and persons relating to the enterprises, estimating their losses and dislocations, and processing their entitlement as per the packages. The next main task would be to assist RHD in disbursing entitlements, which are outside the purview of CCL. The INGO would also play an important role in addressing legitimate grievances of the APs and vulnerable groups. Sample Terms of Reference (ToR) for recruiting of INGO is attached as Annex-G.

11.2.4 Property Valuation Advisory Committee: 191. The MoRTB will form a PVAC for the project through a Gazette Notification to verify, compare and review the physical verification data conducted by Implementing Agency with the DCs' assessment of loss of physical assets and their owners. The PVAC will also be responsible for determining replacement cost of the affected properties. The scope and responsibility of the PVAC will be clearly defined in the gazette. The implementing Agency (RHD) will process the entitlements of the Project-affected persons using the joint verification survey (JVS) data as one of the determinants.

192. The PVACs, which should record proceedings of all their deliberations, shall comprise the following: • APD, Convener; • Chairman, Upazila Parishad, Concern Upazila (Member); • LAO, Concern District (Member); • Sub-Divisional Engineer, PWD, to be nominated by the Executive Engineer PWD, Concern District, (Member); and • Deputy Director (Resettlement), RHD (Member-Secretary).

193. The INGO will assist the PVACs by providing technical expertise in assessing the RVs for properties (land by type and mouza, structure by basic construction type, trees by broad species-type, and crops by type). INGO will undertake consultations, as needed, with affected persons and host populations to obtain adequate information about property values, review, as needed, past reports on replacement cost. For land, INGO will seek to reconcile those values with the land market survey data obtained under the census surveys conducted by the Concerned Sub-Contractors. 194. The PVACs will review and verify, as needed, through additional field investigations, the replacement cost as sessed by type in all concern districts will be submitted to MoRTB for approval. RHD will pay the difference between CCL and RV to the eligible persons (EPs) with the assistance from the RP implementing NGO. 86

11.2.5 The Joint Verification Committee: 195. The JVC will be formed with representation of the RHD, DC and RP implementing NGO as per Gazette Notification by the MoRTB. They will verify the list of Census and IoL to be prepared by INGO and JV list to be prepared by DC office. If there is any inconsistency (more than 10%) found during verification they will stand on the correct one. The JVC will sign the joint verification list. 196. The JVCs, which should record proceedings of all their deliberations, shall comprise the following: • Deputy Director, Convener; • Chairman, Upazila Parishad, Concern Upazila (Member); • LAO, Concern District (Member); • Sub-Divisional Engineer, PWD, to be nominated by the Executive Engineer PWD, Concern District, (Member); and • Assistant Director (Resettlement), RHD (Member-Secretary). • Area Manager, RP Implementing NGO (Member)

11.3 RP Implementation Schedule 197. The RP implementation schedule is based on the principle that people affected by land acquisition and displacement due to vacating the RHD and acquired land are paid their legal compensation and due resettlement benefits prior to relocation. In terms of compensation and relocation, the implementation will be synchronised with the construction plan with particular attention to make available land for the award of the first contract package. Therefore, implementation of the RP will begin prior to the commencement of construction/engineering works. 198. The key activities in the critical path for a timely implementation of the RP are: (a) securing the RP budget by RHD; (b) recruitment of the INGO. Other important activities are the publication of the notice for land acquisition in order to launch the process of acquisition as well as setting up the PVAC in order to validate the valuation methodology and budget. 199. RHD will initiate some advance actions such as the placement of RU staff for the headquarters and the field offices, formation of PVAC, JVC, GRCs, RACs and hiring of INGO for resettlement implementation etc. The PIU will provide adequate advance notification to the APs and will pay their due resettlement benefits, after payment of CCL by DC, including relocation and income restoration/assistance prior to start of construction work. Payment of compensation will be made prior to the actual possession of the acquired lands and removal of the structures from the RoW so that APs have sufficient time to dismantle and remove all salvageable material for rebuilding of houses and reestablishment of businesses.

200. As per the proposal efforts will be made to complete the RP implementation process in about four (5) years (60 months) time including a margin of 6 months to redress any unforeseen situations or circumstances that may arise during the implementation. The INGO should be fielded simultaneously with the commencement of land acquisition. Step-wise activities will be followed for implementation of RP. The activities are presented in the implementation schedule. A tentative Implementation Schedule has been included in Figure 6.

12.1 Internal Monitoring System 201. Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are key components of RP implementation. Monitoring is a periodical checking of planned activities and provides midway inputs, facilitates changes, if necessary and provides feedback for project management to keep the program on schedule. Evaluation on the other hand assesses the resettlement effectiveness, impact and sustainability of R&R program. In other words, evaluation is an activity aimed at assessing whether the activities have actually achieved their intended goals and purposes. Thus monitoring and evaluation of RP implementation are critical in order to measure the project performance and fulfilment of project objectives 12.2 Objectives of Monitoring and Evaluation 202. The M&E system will serve as a tool for monitoring and evaluation of resettlement program ensuring timely and fair delivery of entitlements. The M&E will enable PIU to get feedback from target population and the field operatives to devise corrective measures to ensure achievement of targets within schedule. The objectives of M&E will enhance the delivery capacity of the PIU and maximize benefits of RP packages to the affected persons and the host communities

203. The Chief Resettlement officer and Additional Project Director will be responsible, for executing the RP implementation. Until the end of the RP implementation, monitoring will be sustained. Monitoring components will comprise of performance monitoring of the physical progress along with the RP implementation, impact monitoring and evaluation. The internal intermittent monitoring and evaluation of the RP implementation will be conducted by RHD, as CRO and his teams. The semi-annual, midterm, and final evaluation will be conducted by RHD and will propose necessary changes to the Project Implementation Unit (PIU) as necessary. External Monitoring will cover compliance monitoring and social impact evaluation of RP implementation.

204. As a general principle of RP, affected households will be monitored to ensure that they are able to regain or improve their socioeconomic status and quality of life. In case the assistance given under the project is insufficient to obtain the earlier status or a better off status of living, consideration should be made for additional assistance. In order to carry out such tasks, updating database would be required. The NGO besides contacting the affected person on an individual basis shall also conduct group meetings and village-level meetings for updating baseline information. The NGO will encourage participation of affected persons in such meetings. Such participation will help to find a solution acceptable where all are involved.

205. All resettlement related data, including land acquisition and census will be collected and computerized by the NGO to prepare a resettlement databank and made available to RHD. The data bank will act as the key source of information for implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the RP implementation successes and failure. AP files on individual households will be prepared for processing entitlement, checking and verifying the losses. The file will contain detailed socioeconomic and data on individual households and lost assets. An entitlement card will be prepared containing the summarized losses but detailed entitlement. A Payment statement should also be prepared to reflect the entitlement as well as the payment made. The databank will enhance institutional capacity of both RHD and the implementing NGO in resettlement management of the project. The monitoring issues and indicators is given in Table 62. 90

ROADS AND HIGHWAYS DEPARTMENT ROADS DIVISION MINISTRY OF ROAD TRANSPORT AND BRIDGES

I. Introduction to the Project 1 Improving Dhaka-Sylhet highway into a 4 Lane Highway will increase the capacity of a major South Asian corridor and Trans-Asia highway network, which will boost the national economic growth and also facilitate sub regional cooperation and trade. It will improve efficiency in the movement of goods to and from markets and access to social benefits and services. Realizing the situation, the Government of Bangladesh is reviewing and updating Designs for the Improvement of the Existing Dhaka (Katchpur)-Sylhet National Highway. Preparation of Social Safeguard documents is a pre-requisite of detailed design of a huge scale Transport Infrastructure Project where external funding agency may be involved. It is a tool for budget estimation of land acquisition and resettlement works of a transport infrastructure project. Resettlement Plan for Dhaka-Sylhet Highway project contains a tentative estimation of losses of land, structures and other assets incurred by the project and the budget estimation for compensating those loses. 2 The total length of proposed Dhaka-Sylhet Highway corridor is 222.50 kilometres which is traversing across 7 districts, i.e., Narayanganj, Narsingdi, Kishoreganj, Brahmanbaria, Habiganj, Moulvibazar and Sylhet district. The first three districts are in Dhaka Division, Brahmanbari district is in Chittagong Division, and the last three districts are in Sylhet Division.Total length of. The full length of the corridor has been divided into twelve (12) packages for construction of a 4-Lane highway.

II. Project Impacts 3 The length of the project road section is 222.50 km covering the districts of Narayanganj, Narsingdi, Kishoreganj, Brahmanbaria, Habiganj, Moulvibazar and Sylhet districts. Residential, Commercial and Community establishments will require relocation due to undertaking of the project. Besides, Agricultural land losers and indirectly affected individuals or households will experience loss of income due to acquisition and requisition of about 1,439.41 acre of land. RHD will be responsible for preparation and implementation of Resettlement Plans (RPs) following the policy requirement of the co-financiers and the Government of Bangladesh. Compensation and other assistances will be paid to the Project Affected Persons (PAPs). III. Land Acquisition and Resettlement Policies A. Government of Bangladesh Legal Framework and Co-financiers Policies 4 Current legislation governing land acquisition in Bangladesh is the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Act, 2017. The ARIPA, 2017 requires that compensation be paid for i. land and assets permanently acquired (including standing crops, trees, houses); ii. Any other damage caused by such acquisition. 5 The Deputy Commissioner (DC) determines the market price of assets based on the legislative procedures and in addition to that pays an additional 200 percent on the assessed market value established by DCs. The Act does not cover project-affected persons without title to land or ownership record, such as informal settlers/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without registration document) and does not ensure replacement market value of the property acquired.

ToR RP Implementation 2 | Page 142

6 The ARIPA, 2017 has no provision for providing resettlement assistance and transitional allowances for restoration of livelihoods of the non-titled affected persons. The Act has been applied for this project for land acquisition; however, displaced persons, irrespective of their title will be assisted under resettlement framework, of co-financier’s safeguard policies on involuntary resettlement. B. Resettlement Principles Adopted by the Project 7 In view of the above legal framework as well as ADB SPS 2009 on Involuntary Resettlement, the resettlement principles and guidelines followed in this project are: i. The land acquisition and resettlement impacts on persons affected by the project would be avoided or minimized as much as possible through alternative design options; ii. Where the negative impacts are unavoidable, the persons affected by the project will be identified and assisted in improving or regaining their standard of living; iii. Information related to the preparation and implementation of resettlement plan will be disclosed to all stakeholders and people’s participation will be ensured in planning and implementation; iv. Additional support over and above the cash compensation under law (CCL) will be extended for ensuring the replacement market value of the affected property. The affected persons (APs) who do not own land or other property, but have economic interests or lose their livelihoods will be assisted; v. Before taking possession of the acquired lands and property or dispossession of structure/assets on right of way (ROW), compensation and resettlement assistance will be paid in accordance with the provisions of the ARIPA, 2017; vi. An entitlement matrix for different types of losses and dislocation experienced by different categories of people due to the project has been prepared. The entitlement matrix covers all affected persons irrespective of titles and as identified prior to “cut-off-date” by the survey/census used in this project; vii. In the case of land acquisition, the date of notification for acquisition has been treated as the cut-off date. For non-titleholders such as informal settlers/squatters the date of census mentioned above. Any encroacher or squatter moving in to the project areas after the cut- off date will not be entitled to any assistance; viii. An appropriate grievance redress mechanism has been established to ensure speedy resolution of disputes; ix. All activities related to resettlement planning, implementation, and monitoring would ensure peoples participation including women and other vulnerable groups. Consultations with the APs will continue during the implementation of resettlement and rehabilitation works. x. All affected households and persons, as per the above principles, will be entitled to a combined compensation and resettlement assistance depending on the nature of ownership rights to the assets likely to be dispossessed from and socioeconomic vulnerability of the affected persons. IV. Mitigation of Adverse Impact 8 A total of 1,439.41 acre of land will be required for widening of the existing road into four lanes which will affect households and/or businesses directly or indirectly. An attempt has been made to minimize land acquisition and involuntary resettlement through adopting the most

ToR RP Implementation 3 | Page 143

feasible technical design. A census of 100% households and establishment within the project has been carried out to establish the Inventory of Losses (IOL) following the engineering design of the road which has been verified with joint verification data during the detailed design. 9 As per the census survey, the project will have substantial resettlement impacts. About 7,710 units will require relocation from the acquired land. The compensation entitled for the loss of land and structures at replacement value, shifting and reconstruction assistance, and income restoration assistances are detailed in the entitlement matrix of the RP. Special support for affected people belonging to vulnerable groups, e.g., poor and women-headed households, households having handicapped people are included in the resettlement plan. 10 The APs will be entitled to i. compensation for the loss of land, crops/ trees at their market value; ii. compensation for structures (residential/ commercial/community) and other immovable assets at their replacement market value; iii. assistance for loss of business/ wage income; iv. assistance for shifting and reconstruction, and v. Rebuilding and/ or restoration of community resources/facilities. 11 This will ensure that persons affected by land acquisition or dispossession of their physical assets whether titled or non-titled – will be eligible for appropriate compensation and or resettlement assistance. Persons having no legal title but using the land under acquisition, if vacated for the project purposes, would be provided with compensation and resettlement assistance for structures and shifting/reconstruction allowances. 12 Households having customary rights to land and physical assets acquired – for instance, renters, sharecroppers, any kind of formal or informal tenancy contracts are also covered under the RP resettlement framework. The people involuntarily displaced from homes, assets, or income sources as well as non-titled people affected by the project will receive priority access to these livelihood regeneration measures. The resettlement activities of the project will be carried out in consultation with the APs and all efforts will be made to minimize disruption during implementation. AP preferences will be taken into account in relocating and resettling the affected persons. 13 A summary entitlement matrix has been prepared on the basis of currently known impacts of the project. Census surveys conducted earlier identified the level of impact. The matrix shows the entitlements for each type of losses and dislocation. In case additional impacts are identified during implementation, the entitlement matrix will be revised through inclusion of compensation and assistance for the additional impacts as per the resettlement policy framework of the project. V. Objectives 14 RHD will engage an experienced NGO for the consultation with affected persons and the implementation of resettlement plans. In view of the experience gained from implementing resettlement in previous projects, involvement of NGOs was particularly helpful and effective in the following areas:

i. gathering and sharing information during implementation to establish transparency ii. information campaign and community participation;

ToR RP Implementation 4 | Page 144

iii. Strengthening the capacity of the executing agency (EA) to deliver services and to implement resettlement plans. NGO inputs are particularly important in involving local people, women/vulnerable groups in addressing resettlement related concerns and benefit monitoring. VI. Scope of Work – General 15 The general scope of work for the selected INGO will include: i. recruitment, deployment and training of the HQ and field staff; ii. setting of office, equipment and implementation tools; iii. information and communications campaign; iv. assist in collecting CCL; v. assist in Land acquisition; vi. carrying out additional census and IOL, if required for verification; vii. Prepare supplementary LAP during implementation for any “left out” land/plots or disputed area required for project implementation; viii. computerization of DC data (calculation sheet, DC Award, share determination); ix. identification of entitled persons (EPs); participation in grievance redress;committee (GRC), preparation of EP file, preparation of entitlement card, preparation of payment statement; x. disbursement of resettlement benefit; xi. any resettlement-related technical services required by the EA; xii. Preparation of monitoring and supervision reports to EA as agreed in the contract. The activities mentioned above will be performed for estimated 6,923 units likely to be affected due to acquisition by the project xiii. Submission of Project Completion Report (PCR) and detail statement of expenditure against payment to the APs and EPs. VII. Detailed Tasks to be performed by INGO 16 The selected INGO will assist RHD in implementing all stipulation agreed in the resettlement plans entirely, fairly and timely with full transparency. The main purpose of engaging an INGO is to assist the entitled persons to claim the compensation under the law to be paid by the DCs and resettlement benefit to be paid by RHD and their relocation, and assist RHD in processing and paying resettlement benefits to the EPs. 17 Assist in Land Acquisition: Assist RHD from preparation of land acquisition proposal and liaison with Deputy Commissioner’s office to expedite and arrangements for land acquisition activities till handing over of Land to RHD from DC office and Gazette publication. 18 Assistance to APs in collection of CCL: CCL payment records are considered as the legal document to identify the owner or owners. RHD through the NGO will collect these documents from DC offices, distribute shares of the co-owners and issue ID cards based on the DC data. 19 Carry out census or and verify IOL: The INGO will carry out, where needed, additional census and/or verify existing IOL for compensation purposes. In case new areas are to be acquired, the NGO will have to carry out census for additional areas.

ToR RP Implementation 8 | Page 148

38 Proper orientation to the RHD staff members is to be given so that they can supervise the INGO activity appropriately from the very beginning and operate the menu-driven MIS to remain updated about the progress and problem. CCL payment records should be collected from DC office regularly and be compared with the payment data of the INGO so that the progress achieved, mistakes made, if any by the stakeholders in the process of RP implementation are checked and verified instantly. Before making payment of entitlement, land schedule and census data will be compared with the payable amount, to avoid mistakes or fraud 39 Criteria for measuring performance of INGO staff: There are number of actions needed in collecting CCL and grants. The NGO operatives will investigate the steps completed so far in collecting compensation for a particular plot. Data collected through Focus Group meetings in this connection will be processed in a computerized system to monitor the progress in CCL and rant collection by the EPs. Performance evaluation of the NGO operatives, especially the field staff will be judged by that progress. Production and application of RP implementation tools, payment of grants and resettlement of APs should also be the basis for calculating INGO performance. 40 The INGO will develop monthly progress reporting format as per the requirement of the co-financiers and RHD. Based on the quantitative reports generated through the above- mentioned computerized system monthly progress report by INGO will be prepared and submitted to the RU and RHD. The NGO will ensure the following issues in implementation of the RPs in addition to the above. XIII.
