Safeguard Document : • Resettlement Plan updated December, 2020 Resettlement Plan/ DDR • The subproject will result in involuntary resettlement impact owing to use of private land for construction of 60 transmission towers and laying of transmission lines. The subproject impact includes anticipated loss in terms of diminution of value of private land (2.45 acres) required for erection of transmission towers and for private farm land with the right of way of transmission line (12 km) from LILO arrangement of Parwada to proposed substation at Chandanada. Laying of transmission lines and erection of towers will also result in loss of crops during laying of transmission line., • Underground cable laying work proposed between Dairy Farm substations to Kapuluppada substation (13.8 km) will be carried out within the right of way (RoW) of government owned roads. This may however cause temporary access disturbances to residents living along and/or having land along the corridor of transmission line. Temporary access disruption due to cable line laying is anticipated to result loss of income (estimated 48 shop owners/vendors and 16 employees for a maximum period of 10 days). Impacts will be further confirmed after finalization of alignment. 11.
