1 I. INTRODUCTION A. Overview of the Project 1. Madhya Pradesh Irrigation Efficiency Improvement Project (MPIEIP) is intended to achieve high irrigation efficiency and water productivity in the state. The MPIEIP includes the development of the Kundalia Irrigation Project (KIP), which is planned as a pressurized pipeline distribution system for 125,000 hectares (ha) cultivable command area (CCA) and for supply of water for potable and industrial use. The State Government of Madhya Pradesh is seeking loan from Asian Development Bank for implementation of the Project, which will be financed as Project loan modality. The Water Resource Department Madhya Pradesh (MPWRD) will be the executing agency for the project. 2. The feasibility design for piped distribution system including, pump stations, sub-stations and power supply system, transmission pipelines, valves, controls and associated structures has been planned by the project preparatory technical assistance, with a design-build-operate (DBO) contractor to be engaged for detailed design and construction, and then manage the scheme operation for some agreed years, with support to hand-over the long term management to a joint management organization comprised of WRD, a private contractor, and a project-level water users association (WUA). B. Project Components 3. The pipeline irrigation system for the KIP will consist of two main pumping stations PS1- LB and PS2-RB 1 located on the left and right side of the Kundalia Reservoir to supply irrigation water from the Kundalia Reservoir to three Distribution Chambers (DCs). The main pumping stations PS1-LB and PS2-RB will be located at the end of concrete-lined approach channels constructed in the reservoir. The DCs are proposed on the nearby hills and the water from pumping stations will be pumped through raising mains (pipelines) to the DCs. Water will be discharged from DCs through pressurized secondary pipelines to the designated command areas. Further, water will travel through tertiary pipelines to various outlet chambers, from where; it will be distributed to the fields by quartery pipelines. All pipelines under this Project will be underground only. The electric energy supply to the pump stations will provided by a 130 kv grid line system from the nearest existing substations at Zirapur and Nalkheda Towns, which may need to be upgraded with new transformers and other equipment. The detailed project components are presented in the Table 1. Table 1: Project Components Sl.

Purpose of the Land Acquisition Framework (LAF) for MPIEIP 4. In accordance to the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) 2009, the resettlement framework, for this MPIEIP project will be called as LAF, is required to be prepared if the resettlement plan or Land Acquisition Plan (LAP) covering the whole project components were not completely prepared during project approval by ADB. The LAF is prepared to guide the preparation of LAP for the project components described in para. 3 above. The LAF will be reviewed and updated, if needed, to ensure relevance and consistency with applicable country s legal frameworks and ADB's Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS). 5. Based on the ADB SPS 2009 s requirement, the framework should covers the following: (i) establish requirements that will be followed in relation to Project screening and categorization, assessment, and planning, including arrangements for meaningful consultation with displaced people and other stakeholders, information disclosure requirements and, where applicable, safeguard criteria that are to be used in selecting Project components; (ii) assess the adequacy of the client s capacity to implement national laws and ADB s requirements and identify needs for capacity building; (iii) specify implementation procedures, including the budget, institutional arrangements, and capacity development requirements; (iv) specify monitoring and reporting requirements; (v) describe the responsibilities of the client and of ADB in relation to the preparation, implementation, and progress review of social safeguard documents of the Projects; (vi) lay out the principles and objectives governing the preparation and implementation of RPs and ensures consistency with ADB policy requirements; and (vii) compare applicable national / state laws and regulations and the ADB SPS and outline measures to fill identified gaps. 6. As indicated in para. 2 above that the project will be executed by employing DBO contractor. With regards to the land acquisition, the DBO contractor will be responsible to prepare LAPs for all civil works. The DBO contractor will execute the temporary land acquisition and pay compensation to the affected peoples and MPWRD will be reimbursed the payment for temporary acquisition. All permanent acquisition reported in the LAP will be processed by MPWRD and follow the government s payment procedure to affected peoples. Two sample LAPs were prepared as part of project preparation: (i) LAP for Pipeline Distribution System in

3 500 ha Cultivable Command Area; and (ii) LAP for Pumping Station, Rising Man, and Distribution Chamber. 7. The DBO arrangement has included the task to prepare LAP to be shouldered by DBO contractor, and approval LAP from ADB. There will be several LAPs needed to be prepared to cover 125,000 ha CCA, and considering the experience of MPWRD in handling complex project with complex resettlement and rehabilitation (R&R). The LAPs will be submitted to ADB for approval. 8. This framework provides a clear guidance for DBO contractor on how to prepare LAP. The inventory of losses and socio-economic survey of affected people must be carefully carried out to identify impacts of land acquisition for the project, consultations with affected people must be carried out as early as possible, and disclosure of LAP information should be timely done. The DBO contractor in preparing LAPs will require adopting the entitlement matrix, and legal framework related with ADB policy and government s regulations land acquisition and resettlement rehabilitation. The estimate cost for each LAP will be calculated based on the scope of impacts from the land acquisition. 9. The DBO contractor will wait the approval of LAP prior to start paying compensations to the affected peoples. The DBO contractor could commence its civil work in the particular section/area of the project areas, after completing compensation to the affected peoples (APs) described in each LAP. 10. The DBO contractor should have a land acquisition team with experience staff to prepare and implement LAP, and should establish their own filing system to keep all record related with preparation and implementation LAPs. The DBO contractor will submit to PMU a monthly report on implementation LAPs. It is also recommended, that DBO contractor develop their own grievance system to avoid escalation of problem to the grievance redress mechanism (GRM) for the project. II. POLICY FRAMEWORK AND ENTITLEMENTS A. Objectives 11. The framework outlines the objectives, policy principles and procedures for land acquisition, compensation and other assistance measures for displaced persons. It includes guidance on screening and categorization, assessment, planning, institutional arrangements and processes to be followed for implementation of entire Project. 12. MPWRD is responsible for conducting the social assessment and formulating LAPs/RPs for various components, as per the procedures outlined in this framework. The draft LAPs/RPs will be disclosed to the displaced persons and submitted to ADB for review and approval prior to commencement of any civil works. Compensation and other assistances will have to be paid to affected peoples 2 prior to any physical or economic displacement of those peoples. B. Policy and Legal Framework 2 According to ADB SPS-2009, 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.

4 13. The policy framework and entitlements for the project are based on National Laws: The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act-2013 (RFCTLARRA, 2013), Madhya Pipeline, Cable and Duct Act-2012, Madhya Pradesh Government s Land Purchase Policy and ADB SPS, 2009. 1. The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 14. The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 has been effective from January 1, 2014 after receiving the assent of the President of Republic of India. This Act extends to the whole of India except the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The Act replaced the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. 15. The aims and objectives of the Act include: (i) to ensure, in consultation with institutions of local self-government and Councils (Gram Sab has) established under the Constitution of India, a humane, participative, informed and transparent process for land acquisition for industrialization, development of essential infrastructural facilities and urbanization with the least disturbance to the owners of the land and other affected families; (ii) provide just and fair compensation to the affected families whose land has been acquired or proposed to be acquired or are affected by such acquisition; (iii) make adequate provisions for such affected persons for their rehabilitation and resettlement; (iv) ensure that the cumulative outcome of compulsory acquisition should be that affected persons become partners in development leading to an improvement in their post-acquisition social and economic status and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. 16. Section 27 of the Act defines the method by which, market value of the land shall be computed under the proposed law. Schedule I outlines the proposed minimum compensation based on a multiple of market value. Schedule II through VI outline the resettlement and rehabilitation entitlements to land owners and livelihood losers, which shall be in addition to the minimum compensation per Schedule I. Additional details regarding the Act can be found in Appendix 1. 2. Madhya Pradesh Bhumigat Pipeline, Cable Avam Duct (Bhumi ki Upyokta ke Adhikaron Ka Arjan) Adhiniyam, 2012 (No. 5 of 2013) 17. This Act empowers State Government for temporary acquisition of right of user in private land to lay the underground pipeline, cable or duct. Government acquires user right by paying compensation for loss of crop income, compensation of trees and other losses from the land for the period of laying of underground pipeline, cable or duct. In addition compensation shall be payable at the rate of fifteen percent of market value of that land on the date of publication of the declaration under sub-section (1) of section 4 of the Act. As per the Act, if the laying of underground pipeline, cable or duct is not completed within the stipulated period by the State Government or the Corporation, as the case may be, it shall be liable to pay the loss for such additional period which was taken beyond the stipulated period and also be liable for additional payment at the rate of five percent of the market value of that land.after laying the underground pipeline, cable or duct, the land shall be leveled and restored as good as before, by the user agency and the possession of land shall be handed over to the occupier as per the Act. Additional details regarding the Act can be found in Appendix 2.

5 3. The Madhya Pradesh Government Order No. F 12-2 / 2014 / 07 / 2A Dated 12.11.2014 regarding the Consent Land Purchase Policy. 18. This Policy is applicable only where there is a need to acquire Private Land for construction of permanent structures for the project. A lump sum compensation / grant / consideration amount is being given to the affected household and his private properties are purchased by the Government with the mutual consent of the affected person or affected household. Additional details regarding the Act can be found in Appendix 3. 4. ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 19. The objectives of ADB's SPS (2009) with regards to involuntary resettlement are: (i) to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; (ii) to minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; (iii) to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and (iv) to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. 20. ADB's SPS (2009) covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (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. It covers displaced persons whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary. 21. The three important elements of ADB s SPS (2009) are: (i) compensation at replacement cost for lost assets, livelihood, and income prior to displacement; (ii) assistance for relocation, including provision of relocation sites with appropriate facilities and services; and (iii) assistance for rehabilitation to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons relative to pre-project levels and to improve the standard of living of displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. C. Comparison of Government and ADB Policies 22. A comparison between Government Statutes and ADB s involuntary resettlement safeguards policy that provides gap-filling measures reflected in the entitlement matrix is presented as Appendix 5. The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, which has integrated provisions of NRRP with that of LA Act 1894, recognizes titleholders and non-titleholders affected by land acquisition. Wherein, the squatters, encroachers and those present in Row and other government lands are excluded from the purview of the Act. 3 23. The key difference between the Government and ADB s involuntary resettlement safeguards policy is with regards to the cut-off date for determining the eligibility for compensation and R&R assistance to all those who are affected by the project irrespective of the ownership title to the land. As per the provisions of RFCTLARR Act, the cut-off-date for title holders is the date of SIA notification [Sec 4(2)] and for non-titleholders affected by the acquisition of such land; they should have been living/working three years or more prior to the acquisition of the land. To bring the RF in line with ADB s requirements, the fram work mandates that in the case of land acquisition, the date of issue of notification will be treated as 3 Non-titleholders are recognized in this sector loan through this Resettlement Framework and meets ADB SPS requirement

6 the cut-off date for title holders, and for non-titleholders such as squatters and encroachers, whom the Act does not recognize, the cut-off date will be the start date of the subproject census survey. In case of all affected non-title holders, suitable compensation for loss of non-land assets and R&R assistance is proposed in the entitlement matrix. 24. A significant development in Government statute is the notification of The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, which has repealed the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 (as amended in 1984). This Act would both complement the revision of the NRRP (2007) and decrease significantly the gaps between the LA Act 1894 and ADB s SPS. In particular, the Act would require social impact assessments for projects involving land acquisition. The Act also expands compensation coverage of the principal act by requiring that the value of structure, trees, plants, or standing crops damaged must also be included and the solatium being 100% of all amounts inclusive. The Act furthermore meets ADB requirement of all compensation to be paid prior to project taking possession of any land and provision of R&R support including subsistence grant and transportation cost. 25. Permanent land acquisition under the project shall be executed as per the State Government of Madhya Pradesh s land purchasing policy by directly purchase of land with mutual consent and negotiated price. 26. The compensation for temporary use of land is covered and well addressed by the Madhya Pradesh Pipeline, Cable and Duct Act. Under the Act, full compensation for non-land assets such as tree, crops, and structures will be paid. In addition to the compensation for nonland assets, 15% of market value of land will also be paid to the landowners as one-time compensation for future use of the RoW during maintenance. However, any loss during the maintenance period will also be compensated. D. Involuntary Resettlement Safeguard Principles for the Project 27. Based on the above analysis of Government provisions and ADB policy, the following resettlement principles are adopted for this project: (i) (ii) Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks. Measures to avoid and minimize involuntary resettlement impacts include the following: (a) explore alternative alignments or locations which are less impacting, (b) ensure the appropriate technology is used to reduce land requirements, and (c) modify the designs, cross sections, and geometrics of components to minimize the ROW and ensure involuntary resettlement is avoided or minimized. Carry out meaningful consultations with displaced persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernment organizations (NGOs). Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and indigenous peoples, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations. Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the concerns of displaced persons. Support

7 (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) (vii) (viii) (ix) the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by a social preparation phase. Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through; (i) land-based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement cost for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods, (ii) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value, (iii) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible. Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance, including the following: (a) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities, integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (b) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (iii) civic infrastructure and community services, as required. Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing. Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement 4 to ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status. Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for all compensation, relocation and rehabilitation measures, except land. Prepare a resettlement plan/lap elaborating on the entitlements of displaced persons, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule. This resettlement plan/lap will be approved by ADB prior to contract award. Disclose a draft resettlement plan/lap, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and language(s) understandable to displaced persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan/lap and its updates to displaced persons and other stakeholders. 4 ADB SPS 2009 (Safeguards Requirements 2) does not apply to negotiated settlements. The policy encourages acquisition of land and other assets through a negotiated settlement wherever possible, based on meaningful consultation with affected persons, including those without title to assets. A negotiated settlement will offer adequate and fair price for land and/or other assets. Also, an independent external party will be engaged to document the negotiation and settlement processes. In cases where the failure of negotiations would result in expropriation through eminent domain or the buyer could acquire the property regardless of its owner s decision to sell it or not, will trigger ADB s involuntary resettlement policy. The Safeguard Requirements 2 will apply in such cases, including preparing a resettlement plan.

8 (x) (xi) (xii) Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of project s costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation. Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan/lap under close supervision throughout project implementation. Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standard of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan/lap have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports. E. Entitlement Matrix 28.
