1. INTRODUCTION Infrastructure Development Investment Program for Tourism (IDIPT) has been proposed with a view to develop and improve basic urban infrastructure and services in the four participating states of Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand and Tamil Nadu to support the tourism sector as a key driver or economic growth. It will focus on: (i) Strengthening connectivity to and among key tourist destinations; (ii) Improving basic urban infrastructure and services, such as water supply, road and public transport, solid waste management and environmental improvement, at existing and emerging tourist destinations to ensure urban amenities and safety for the visitors, and protect nature and culture-based attractions; and (iii) Physical infrastructure investments will be accompanied by capacity building programs for concerned sector agencies and local communities for better management of the tourist destinations and for more active participation in the tourism related economic activities, respectively. 2. NEED FOR INITIAL ENVIRONMENTAL EXAMINATION (IEE) As per the ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009), the sub-projects in the Tranche – 3 are classified under Category “B” since there are no significant impacts that are envisioned due to the implementation of these sub projects. Being category “B” projects, Initial Environmental Examination (IEE’s) has been prepared for all sub projects. The IEE is based on a careful review of sub-project DPR’s, site plans and reports; field visits and secondary data to characterize the environment and in order to identify potential impacts; the interviews and meaningful consultations with primary and secondary stakeholders are also part of the IEE. The IEE’s are included with project specific Environmental Management Plan (EMP’s) with Environmental Monitoring Program. 3. PURPOSE OF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The purpose of Environmental Monitoring Program is to ensure the effective implementation of the recommended mitigation/ management measures (as indicated in the EMP) and to comply with the conditions of the environmental legislations, rules and regulations of India. It will be essential to develop an environmental management mechanism and procedures in the form of Environmental Monitoring Program. 4. OBJECTIVES OF CARRYING OUT ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The objectives of carrying out the Environmental Monitoring Program include the following: • To provide a database against which short or long term environmental impacts of the sub projects can be determined; • To provide an early indication, environmental control measures or practices should not fail to achieve the acceptable standards; • To monitor the performance of the sub projects and the effectiveness of mitigation measures; • To verify the environmental impacts predicted during the IEE studies; • To determine compliance with regulatory requirements, standards and government policies; • To take remedial action if unexpected problems or unacceptable impacts arise

Their responsibility will also include updating the IEE based on detailed design and EMP implementation supervision; • The Contractor will be responsible for execution of all construction works. The Contractor will work under the guidance of the PIUs and DSCs in Amritsar and Chandigarh. The EMP mitigation measures relevant to construction phase will also be implemented by the contractor.

Sub-project Development at Eastern Circuit – Remaining Conservation Work of Aam No. Selection Criteria Khas Bagh and Last Mile connectivity. 1 Site Description The proposed subproject site is located in Fatehgarh Sahib District of Punjab. Fatehgarh Sahib town is located on Ambala-Ludhiana National Highway (NH-1) and is well connected through road linkages to other important towns/cities of Punjab and Chandigarh. Restoration works under the Tranche-3 are currently under progress in the Aam Khas Bagh. However, the ongoing restoration works are not covering the entire area. Hence, the left-out areas which have to be restored are included in this subproject (Package no: PB/IDIPT/T3-03/14/23). The left-out areas include Enclosure a 1/Enclosure 3 part which encompasses a huge garden area is currently in a pitiable state: • Growth of wild vegetation at site. • Unused areas are turning into dumping spaces • Circulation spaces and walkways are not there in certain enclosures • There is no planned landscaping along the water channels • Most of the water channels are not functioning with the fountains broken or in a • dilapidated state • There is no proper lighting for landscape or buildings in the complex • Signage’s are either rusted or broken • Inadequate street furniture • The existing drainage is not properly designed, hence there is seepage of water to • the surrounding areas and hence it needs plinth protection to segregate the • landscape from the built area Daulat Khana: Whole building is in dilapidated condition. Hammam: It is also in dilapidated condition but building is intact as walls, roofs, floors and fountains/tanks are seen but in very much need of conservation. Sard Khana: structure is in dilapidated stage and entrance gate is tilted on right side, well is filled with debris / garbage and wild vegetation is observed all over the structures. Water channels are also broken and the link is missing in many places. Mehtabi Bagh: Mehtabi Bagh is a rectangular enclosure where the restoration work of the boundary walls, northern pavilion, Mehtabi Chabutra and the four octagonal bastions is currently in process. However, the site development (site drainage, new paving, paths and plinth protection etc.,) and landscaping are left out, which is included in this subproject. Step Tank: The restoration of steps leading to the tank with the central arched walkway forms part of this enclosure. It also includes the screen walls on the eastern and western sides and the small apartments behind both these screen walls Apartments: These are the small apartments flanking the Naughara on western and eastern sides which currently houses the site office and stores. This is in a dilapidated condition currently. Pathway: This comprises of the causeway connecting the Naughara to the hammam, Daulat Khana and the Sard Khana. This enclosure is in dilapidated condition, but it is having lot of architectural significance. 2 Description of Conservation and Restoration of the left-out structures of Aam Khas proposed Bagh improvements • Hammam • Daulat khana • Sard Khana • Site and area development • Restoration of other buildings

Sl. Sub-project Package 09/38: Beautification works near Gurudwara Baba Deep Singh No. Selection Criteria Ji at Amritsar 1 Site Description Beautification of Gurudwara Shaheed Baba Deep Singh ji Asthaan Antim Sanskar Sahib (Shaheedan Sahib), located almost in centre of Amritsar City. It is situated in Chattiwind Gate on Tarn Taran Road. Historical evidence suggests that in 1757, Baba Deep Singh, a prominent Sikh scholar, received information that the Afghan invader Ahmed Shah Abdali, has instructed his generals to attack Harmandir Sahib.

As per order, Taimur Shah and Jahan Khan reached with heavy force and disrespect for Sri Darbar Sahib and also started filling the holy Sarovar located in the compound along Sri Harmandir Sahib. Though Baba ji was ageing, he carried an eighteen (18) ser heavy Khanda in his hand to free Sri Darbar Sahib. He took pledge to teach a lesson to the cruel and started his journey for Sri Harmandir Sahib. On hearing this, Jahan Khan had made thousands of his soldiers ready on the outskirts of the town near Gohalvadh Village. There was a fierce battle was fought between Baba ji and Jahan Khan, where the Sikhs were heavily outnumbered. During one of the skirmish, Baba ji was beheaded. A close associate standing near Baba ji, reminded Baba ji of his earlier pledge. Unexpectedly, a miracle took place and Baba ji was fearless to hold his head in his left hand and with his right hand and swayed the Khanda with such a force that the enemies started running away. Eventually, after fighting the fierce battle, Baba ji reached Sri Harmandir Sahib and offered his head at Sri Harmandir Sahib. The last rights of Baba Deep Singh ji were performed thereafter in the holy place. 2 Description of Proposed works under this subproject are given below- proposed • Developing a common streetscape for the entire stretch by façade improvements upliftment of existing structures and treatment of green belts. • Establishment of city Museum through the stretch of the road by creating a camouflage over the exiting walls of the structure: narrating the story of Maharaja Ranjit Singh Ji and the other significant people through GRC graffiti for 3D art work depicting portraits and scenes of people behind the making of the State of Punjab. • Organizing the parking lots and landscaping around the government facilities like Suvidha Kendras. • Proposing an over bridge outside Gurudwara Shaheedan Sahib of total length 26.17 meters and width of 2 meters.

Sub-project infrastructure showcasing of sikh culture (Lot-2) - Interpretation centre at No. Selection Criteria Wadda Ghallughara 1 Site Description The sub-project site of Wadda Ghallughara is located in Malerkotla in the Sangrur district, which is one of the four districts in Patiala Division. It is, one of the southern districts of the State. It is bounded by Ludhiana district in the north, Barnala district in the west, Patiala district in the east and Fatehabad district (State Haryana) in the south. The district headquarters shall be accessed through road networks connecting Chandigarh (142 Km), Ludhiana (80 Km), Budh lada (73 Km), Delhi (257 Km), Sultanpur (189 Km), Gurdaspur (250 Km), Ganga-Nagar (240 Km), Nangal (138 Km). It shall also be accessed through rail network from Ludhiana and Jhakhal (in Haryana).

The Wadda Ghallughara or the Sikh Battle of 1762 refers to the mass sacrifices of the Sikhs by Afghani Forces that happened during the years of Afghan influence in the Punjab region owing to the repeated incursions of Ahmad Shah Durrani in 1764. As such, it is distinguished from the Chhota Ghallughara or the Sikh Battle of 1746.The Sikh Battles were not pogroms in the sense of the killing of masses of defenceless people. Since the martyrdom of the fifth Sikh Guru, Guru Arjan Dev, in 1606, Sikhs wielded arms in self-defence. These events are called "Ghallughara" because of the wholesale slaughter of the innocent with the intention of genocide. The first Battle was brutal and included mass destruction during the Afghan provincial government's campaign to wipe out the Sikhs, an offensive route that had begun with the Mughals and lasted several decades. 2 Description of Proposed works under this subproject are given below- proposed Interpretation Center at Wadda Ghallughara: improvements • Sculptured court. • Lighting fixtures • Signage’s 3 Design Criteria Steps to minimize the Environmental impacts due to proposed interventions of Interpretation centre at Wadda Ghallughara. e.
