EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Project Description

1. The Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP) has identified a number of sub-projects to strengthen the suburban rail and road transport in Greater Mumbai and Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) as a whole. As a part of MUTP, Maharashtra State Development Corporation (MSRDC) and Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) have undertaken the Santacruz - Chembur Link Road (SCLR) linking Western Express Highway (WEH) and Eastern Express Highway (EEH) having the total length of this proposed road is 6.45 km. The SCLR sub-project is being implemented in two phases. The phase I comprise of Mithi River to EEH, which is being executed by MSRDC whereas Phase II comprise of WEH to Mithi River and is being executed by MCGM. The construction works for phase I up to 30 m width is already in progress. The Resettlement Implementation Plan (RIP) for SCLR phase I for a width up to 30-39 m. was prepared in August 2003 and is under implementation by MMRDA. The Baseline Socio-Economic Survey (BSES) for SCLR phase I was updated in December 2004 to include the affected structures between 30-39 m and 45.7 m. width at certain places of the alignment. Based on this updated BSES, the Resettlement Implementation Plan (RIP) report for SCLR phase I has been updated and consolidated to include the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) affected between 30 m. to 45.7 m. width.

Land Acquisition2. The total area required for this project is 47856 sq.m. Out of this 11090 sq.m is

private land, which was acquired in 1987 by using the land acquisition (LA) process. There are no outstanding compensation payments related to this land acquisition. However, the possession of the land has not been taken due to encroachments. The balance land of 36766 sq.m belongs to Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA), Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), Indian Railways (IR) and Kurla Dairy (KD). Since the alignment for SCLR is included in the development plan, a “No Objection Certificate” (NOC) from MCGM is being obtained. Some NOC have been obtained, and rest will be obtained prior to civil works in specific stretches.

However, additional acquisition of private land and transfer of government land is necessitated. Approximately, 1091.9 sq.m. of private land is to be acquired which will be completed before commencement of civil works. Government land belonging to MCGM, IR, MHADA and Kurla Dairy measuring 10705.51 sq.m. is to be transferred for the project which will be completed prior to civil works.

Impact on Structures

3. A total of 3021 structures out of which 2472 are residential, 524 commercial and 25 residential-cum – commercial structures were shown as impacted by the execution of the SCLR for a width up to 45.7 m. in the Sept 2005 RIP. Subsequently, during the site clearance additional 127 structures were found to be impacted of which 103 are residential, 16 are commercial and 8 are residential plus commercial. A total of 23 religious structures/community properties were identified as affected in the RIP of September 2005. These include 7 temples, 1 church, 1 Masjid, 1 Gurudwara, 6 Madrasa, 3 balwadis, 2 political party offices, 1 worker’s centre and 1 committee office. Subsequently, 1 madarasa was identified as commercial establishment; one Temple, one Party office & one Health Centre were found to be beyond alignment. Out of 19 remaining religious/ community structures, one temple and one balwadi have been shifted to Ghatkopar and Hiranandani-Mankhurd sites respectively. At present, 17 religious/community structures remain to be shifted. Therefore, the total of 3167 structures would be impacted: residential-2575; commercial-540, residential-cum-commercial-33; and community/religious structures-19. Out of this

6

till April 30, 2006, total of 2591 structures have been resettled: residential-2418, commercial-145, residential-cum-commercial-26; and religious/community structures-2. An additional 754 structures will be affected by the final alignment. This includes 492 tenements of 20 MHADA buildings; and 262 encroached slums in the areas of Sable Nagar, Shanta Jog Marg, Rahul Nagar and Nehru Nagar. Table 1 lists the total number of project-affected households and elaborates the details pertaining to the impacts due to finalization of the alignment. Table 1 has been updated to include additional impact as observed during the site clearance and the number of PAHs shifted and lists the total number of project affected households and elaborates the details pertaining to the impacts due to finalization of the alignment.

It is pertinent to mention that the BSES of December 2004 identified 3389 structures located in the COI considered for SCLR.

Socio-economic Characteristics

4. The initial Baseline Socio-economic Survey (BSES) was conducted by M/s Society for Promotion of Area Resource Centre (SPARC) in 1998. Later, the alignment of SCLR changed and the new hutments were covered for which supplementary BSES was conducted in 2002. Again, as a result of change in the alignment, additional new structures were affected for which BSES was submitted in February 2003. Finally, an updated consolidated BSES considering the change in the alignment and for a width up to 45.7 m. at certain places was conducted in December 2004 for the SCLR phase I. Therefore, December 2004 will be treated as cut-off date. 154 residential and 193 commercial establishments were found locked during the BSES conducted in December 2004. The BSES has been updated and there are 27 residential and 7 commercial establishments still found locked and this would be verified during the issue of identity cards.

Resettlement Options and Procedures

5. The Residential PAHs losing residential units shall be offered tenements of 225 sft each at any MUTP R&R site (mostly Mankhurd). Relocation to MUIP R&R sites shall also be allowed if any PAH is willing to shift to any such site on his/her own, aware of difference in quality of post-resettlement support provided. For the resettlement of commercial PAHs, the Government of Maharashtra (GOM) has drawn up an action plan to address the encroacher Shopkeepers’ concerns regarding relocation. The five-resettlement options have been formulated to address needs of the shopkeepers with unique spatial needs who may lose over 225 sq ft of shop area. The negotiation with eligible commercial PAPs has been initiated for identifying options and facilitating early relocation to R&R sites. The procedure that would be adopted for negotiations with SCLR commercial PAPS for offer of various options has been outlined in the RIP.

6. The livelihoods of affected employees will be protected as provided under the R&R policy the economic needs of such workers shall be addressed as part of the R&R process. MMRDA would give publicity to its GOM R&R Policy, which provides for payment of one year’s income as onetime assistance to those employees who are not re-employed. The MMRDA would scrutinize and process such cases for assistance as and when formal requests are received from such employees. The one-year income to be offered to employees will be determined by the valuation committee composition described in the policy. The employees will be issued identity cards prior to their displacement.

Implementation Arrangement

7

7. This Resettlement Implementation Plan (RIP) has been prepared to ensure that people affected by this project will be allotted adequate infrastructure facilities and economic incentives to improve their living standards during the post resettlement period. The overall responsibility for implementation of this RIP lies with Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) who will coordinate with all other agencies in the implementation process and oversee the delivery of entitlements to the PAPs. The shifting of Project Affected Households (PAHs) is expected to be completed during June 2006 to December 2006 for affected residential and commercial structures. The entire resettlement process including registration of Co-operative Housing Societies (CHS), transfer of the title to PAPs and land to CHS, delivery of entitlements such as shifting charges/transfer of Maintenance fund, assistance to economic rehabilitation through Community Revolving Fund (CRF) and impact evaluation of the post resettlement phase will be carried out in about three years. The budget for the implementation of this RIP is estimated to be Rs. 670.05 million. The implementation of this RIP will be monitored through quarterly progress reports (QPR) which will be prepared by MMRDA and reviewed by Project Co-Ordination Committee (PCC).

Post Resettlement Support

8. The Terms of Reference for hiring an external agency to plan and implement post resettlement capacity building and hand holding support for one year extendable by another six months as part of an Exit strategy has been finalised. As a part of this intervention the resettled past PAHs shall be enabled to self manage their assets institutions and services in a sustainable manner in the resettlement colonies.

Chapter I

INTRODUCTION

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

1.1 The Government of Maharashtra (GOM) with financial assistance from the World Bank (WB) has undertaken a medium term investment programme called the Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP) to be implemented by Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA). MUTP has identified a number of sub-projects to strengthen the suburban rail and road transport in Greater Mumbai and Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) as a whole. The Santacruz - Chembur Link Road (SCLR) linking Western Express Highway (WEH) and Eastern Express Highway (EEH) is 6.45 km long. The location of SCLR corridor is shown in figure 1. The SCLR sub-project is being implemented in two phases. Phase I comprises of Mithi River to EEH Phase II comprise of WEH to Mithi River. The phase I is being executed by Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) whereas Phase II is being executed by Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM).

1.2 The Resettlement Implementation Plan (RIP) for phase I of SCLR up to 39 m. width was approved by the World Bank in March 2003. The construction works for phase I up to 30-39 m width is already in progress. The Resettlement Implementation Plan (RIP) for SCLR phase I up to 30-39 m. width was prepared in August 2003 and is under implementation by MMRDA. The BSES for SCLR phase I was updated in December 2004 to include the affected structures between 30-39 m and 45.7 m. width.

Technical justification for change in road width and alignment

1.3 The Santacruz Chembur Link Road (SCLR) is one of the two East West Corridors being implemented under MUTP. As per the agreed approach the MMRDA had submitted the Resettlement Implementation Plan for a width of 39 m. in early 2003, which was approved by the World Bank in March 2003. Subsequently it was informed to the World Bank in March 2004 that the SCLR would be widened to take the advantage of the full width of the sanctioned

9

Development Plan of 45.7 m. Accordingly the Baseline Socio-Economic Survey for the impacts in 45.7 m was undertaken and updated RIP was prepared in September 2004 and reviewed by the Bank. The Bank identified that the RIP should include a certified copy of the final alignment in order to freeze the likely impacts and the corresponding BSES needs to finalized. In addition the relocation plan for affected community assets and cultural assets and resettlement measures for medium and large size shopkeepers should be proposed as per Business Needs Study conducted by the World Bank. In anticipation of the finalization of the RIP, the Environmental Management Plan was submitted for the 45.7 m width and approved by the Bank vide its communication dated December 2005. A copy of the approved alignment for SCLR by MCGM was submitted to the World Bank in February 2006 along with RIP for SCLR submitted earlier. Based on the initial approved RIP for 39m, part of the R&R work in terms of resettlement of PAPs has already been initiated. Accordingly site clearance and construction work for SCLR has also been initiated in these stretches. The finalization of RIP was delayed due to difficulties in completing the public consultations and BSES in certain section and reaching an agreement with the PAPs. As a follow up, the World Bank Team visited Mumbai during February 21 through 23, 2006 and agreed to prepare and implement section wise RIP for a width of 45.7m to ensure speed up the resettlement work and commence the construction work prior to the onset of monsoon. As per understanding arrived at during the Bank Mission in April 2006 this RIP consolidating R&R measures for all 9 sections has been prepared.

1.4 Based on this updated BSES, the RIP report for SCLR phase has been updated to include the PAPs affected between 30-39 m. to 47.5 m. width of the alignment. This RIP presents the consolidated resettlement plans for the 30-39m as well as the additional 15.7-6.7m strips which ultimately measures up to the 45.7 m Development Plan width. Reference may kindly be made to Attachment 1 of Volume 1 in which SCLR alignment Map is presented. The Attachment 2 shows the Map approved by MCGM and shared with the Bank and Attachment 3 shows the approval letter issued by MCGM.

Description of the Alignment of SCLR Phase I

1.5 The project road in Phase I (Total Length is 3.45 km) starts from the Mithi River on CST road. The alignment follows CST road upto LBS junction. It then follows the S.G.Barve Marg upto 100 m west of steel bridge on old Mumbai Agra road. Thereafter the alignment deviates towards left side near Buddha Mandir. It runs over a new alignment to cross the Central Railway tracks about 1 km north of Kurla Railway station over viaduct (ROB), and passes adjacent to Kurla Terminus south-west.

1.6 After L T Terminus, the proposed link passes between the MHADA quarters and crosses the Tansa pipeline beyond Tilak Nagar station. After crossing the pipeline, the alignment splits into 3 arms, 2 arms on north side of EEH and 1 arm on south side adjacent to Chembur flyover. The project road ends at Amar Mahal junction. Out of 3.45 kms of Phase I, about 1.0 km runs on existing alignment & the remaining 2.45 km is virgin/new alignment. The details of the alignment are given in Table 1.1:

Alignment of Nehru Nagar – L.T. Terminus Link Road (DP Link)

1.7 The total length of this alignment is about 1.2 Km. It starts from S.G. Barve Marg (E) at a junction located about 100 m away from Kurla Station (E). It overlaps with existing 4-Lane Kurla-Dairy road up to the dairy entrance (Km 0+360). It traverses through dairy vacant premises for about 300 m cross Kurla-Panvel Harbour Line at Km 0+660 and joins proposed SCLR at Km 0+825 in front of L.T. Terminus and further runs on Ghatkopar - Amar Mahal Junction Road to provide access to Kurla Terminus. The overlapping length of this link road on Ghatkopar - Amar Mahal Jn. Road is about 375 m (1+200 minus 0+825). The junction of SCLR and this alignment at Km 0+825 will be at an elevated level providing a vertical clearance of about 6.525 m from the ground.

Road Junctions

1.8 There are four important road junctions on the proposed corridor viz. LBS Junction, S G Barve Marg (W) Junction, L T Terminus Junction and Amar Mahal Junction. Improvements to these junctions will be done considering volume and pattern of pedestrian and vehicular traffic.

LBS Junction

1.9 This junction is 4-legged one on SCLR. CST road from university side, S. G. Barve Marg from Kurla Station (W) side joins LBS road at Chainage 0+650. Both CST and S.G. Barve roads which form part of SCLR are concrete roads. CST road is a 4-lane divided carriageway and S.G.Barve road is a 2-lane single carriageway except at junction portion for about 150-200 m length from the junction towards Kurla side.

1.10 The traffic on CST and S. G. Barve road is mainly inter-city and intersects with a mixture of through and inter-city traffic on LBS Marg. The proposed SCLR after its construction will significantly contribute traffic inflow into junction and will cause traffic delays. To ease off this congested traffic delays and to facilitate through

13

and hindrance free movement, a fly over with service roads at this junction is proposed.

S G Barve Marg (W) Junction

1.11 The location of this proposed junction on SCLR is at Chainage 1+000 where proposed 6-lane SCLR will deviate from S G Barve Marg (W) to traverse on its own virgin alignment forming 3 legged junction. Presently S G Barve Marg is 2-lane concrete road at this location. This junction will facilitate traffic exchange from Kurla (W) to SCLR and will help to share the traffic load at LBS Junction.

L T Terminus Junction

1.12 The proposed Nehru Nagar link from Kurla (E) forms this junction with SCLR in front of L.T. Terminus at Chainage 2+200. Presently, the approaches of main line ROB of SCLR and harbour line ROB of Nehru Nagar link join at an elevation of about 4.5m above ground to form this Junction. The nearness of harbour line (about 120 m) and future expansion in front of L T Terminus yard does not allow this proposed junction formation on ground. This junction will mainly serve the terminus bound traffic from SCLR and Kurla East.

Amar Mahal Junction

1.13 The proposed SCLR terminates at existing 4-legged Amar Mahal junction. This junction is formed by the roads coming from Ghatkopar, Chember (R C Marg), Thane (EEH) and Sion (EEH). To facilitate exchange of traffic between SCLR and the above-mentioned roads at the junction, the 6 lane SCLR splits into two parts before meeting Amar Mahal Junction. The 3-lane left carriageway meant for SCLR traffic outflow meets Ghatkopar road on west side of EEH. The 3-lane right carriageway meant for SCLR traffic inflow again shifts of which 2 lanes pass through existing subway of EEH and one lane on regraded down ramp of EEH. The disturbed down ramp of EEH will be taken above this 1-lane of right carriageway and made to run along with it to end at Ghatkopar road.

14

Measures taken to avoid or minimise resettlement

1.14 The scope for considering the route/alignment alternatives in SCLR was very limited since the alignment for SCLR had to follow the corridor reserved in the sanctioned Development Plan of MCGM. Also analysis as regards to with and without scenario was also not possible since the link between Santacruz and Chembur is a combination of existing roads and new alignments. It is possible to consider the same when the road is to be improved/ strengthened. However the impact of traffic on the adjacent road network due to the construction of SCLR was studied.

1.15 As regards to analysis of alternatives for cross-sections, the traffic forecasts demand 6 lane divided SCLR from Mithi River to Amar Mahal. Therefore no alternative cross sections were considered.

1.16 However alternatives for junction with L T terminus/Nehru Arm were developed keeping the functional requirements of SCLR in view. These alternatives were developed for vertical geometry at the same location and not for horizontal geometry. The description of alternatives is as follows-

Alternative I:

1.17 It is possible to give connection from Nehru Nagar to SCLR as shown in the D.P. Plan but it would be only one directional as two carriage ways would be divided by a median verge. In order to give connection from Santacruz to Nehru Nagar, one more arm is proposed that would take off from left carriageway and fly at second floor level and would join the Nehru Nagar link as per D.P. Plan. In this alternative, connection from Santacruz towards Nehru Nagar and vice versa is possible. However, there is no connection to LT terminus is provided in the proposal.

Alternative II:

1.18 In this alternative an emphasis is given for connection to L.T. Terminus. Here the main link is maintained as per Public Works Department (PWD) proposal. A down ramp is added from SCLR such that vehicles can come down at ground level in front of L.T. Terminus. A circular round about is proposed in front of L.T. terminus

15

and an up ramp to join SCLR. Thus proper connection is provided from Santacruz / Western Suburbs to Kurla Terminus.

This proposal has two disadvantages

1.19 No connection is proposed from Nehru Nagar to SCLR or L.T. Terminus. Such a connection is not possible since the distance between railway tracks of Harbour Branch and L.T. Terminus building is about 120.0 m and it would require a steep gradient of about 7% to come down in front of Terminus building, which is not desirable especially for up ramp towards Nehru Nagar.

1.20 It was informed that there is proposal of merging railway tracks of main line from Kurla Station to the tracks from L.T. Terminus as per Master Plan of Kurla Station development under Bandra - Kurla Complex. In such a case Dn/Up ramp would not be feasible from requirement of vertical clearance from railway tracks up to soffit of structure.

Alternative III:

1.21 The schemes mentioned above had certain drawbacks and hence did not fulfill all the functional requirements. This scheme is therefore developed by combining Alternative I and Alternative II.

1.22 Under this scheme a signalised junction is proposed at first floor level such that a minimum vertical clearance of 6.525m is available in front of L.T. Terminus either for free vehicular movement at ground or to facilitate future railway expansion program below first floor level. The arm from Nehru Nagar can join the main link at first floor level after crossing harbour branch of central railway, while an approach ramp can be given from the junction towards L.T. Terminus. It can be seen that this alternative satisfies all the functional requirements mentioned above. The movements are thus possible from Santacruz to L.T. Terminus, Nehru Nagar (Kurla east) and Chembur or vice-versa.

1.23 The overall width of main link proposed is 29.80 m consisting of six lane divided carriage way with 3.00 m wide footpaths on either side. For Nehru Nagar arm and approach ramp on L.T. Terminus side, overall width of 20.2m has been proposed consisting of four lane divided carriage way with 1.5 m wide footpaths on either side.

16

Alternative IV:

1.24 A meeting was convened in second week of September, 2001 wherein it was desired that stoppage of vehicles moving in east - west direction at signalised junction shall be avoided. This necessitated segregation of traffic and hence splitting the carriageway. It is proposed to take four-lane carriageway at second floor level while maintaining two-lane carriageway at first floor level, which will have the option to go either to L.T. Terminus or Nehru Nagar side from the junction thus formed at an elevated level. Under this scenario total 8 lane carriageway would be necessary involving 7.5m wide outer lanes with 1.5m footpaths on first floor level and 15.5m wide dual 2 lane carriageway (2x7m) with 1.0m median on second floor level. The total cross section of the alternative scheme proposed here amounts to 30m, Since the ROW available between MHADA quarters is restricted to 30.0 m only.

1.25 Further under this scenario, a slight modification to first floor junction was suggested by Railways during their site visit in April 2002. The modification to the junction is to give a provision only but not to establish the approach ramp to L.T. Terminus from the first floor junction till Railway department comes-up with its development plan in the vicinity of the junction.

1.26 The splitting of carriageway is proposed after crossing of active running tracks as well as tracks leading to yard. The carriageway at first floor level is proposed to have a vertical clearance of 6.525 m above Ground Level at the junction. It is also proposed to keep a vertical clearance of 4.5 m between the two flyovers at the junction. It is expected that this would be sufficient for normal vehicles including trucks (except Double Decker buses and container traffic) to pass below it. The span arrangement for this proposal shall be same as that of Alternative - III.

1.27 Based on various alternatives described above, Alternative – III and IV satisfy all the functional requirements. However, in various SRC meetings including the ones with World Bank team, Alternative IV has been considered most suitable and hence recommended. This alternative is also the one with minimum resettlement impacts in purview of the design criteria and future traffic requirements.

OBJECTIVES

17

1.28 The main objective of this implementation plan is to ensure that people affected by this project will be allotted adequate infrastructure facilities and economic incentives to improve their living standards during the post resettlement period in terms of their income, housing quality, and access to basic amenities. This will be measured against the baseline characteristics through an independent survey to be carried out one year after the people or commercial structures are resettled in the new place.

METHODOLOGY1.29 The methodology and flow of activities that have been adopted in the preparation

of this implementation plan are described below: Study of relevant documents, reports and project alignment maps. Enumeration of structures and mapping by plane table survey. Review and analysis of Baseline Socio-economic surveys Consultations and meetings with PAHs, visits to sites. Disclosure of draft RIP Stakeholder Consultations

1.30 This implementation plan has been prepared considering applicability of the Indian legal requirements such as Land Acquisition Act, 1894; MRTP Act, 1966; DC regulations, 1991 for Greater Mumbai, etc. The RIP is prepared with special reference to the R & R Policy of Govt. of Maharashtra which is consistent with the World Bank policies such as OP 4.30, OP 4.20, and OP 4.11.

Enumeration of structures and mapping by plane table survey

1.31 Before the actual baseline survey, all the structures that were likely to be affected by the project were identified and were enumerated considering the ROW and its alignment drawing prepared by the DPR consultant. The same identification numbers were given to the occupants of the structures for future reference. In addition to this, all the affected structures were reconfirmed by a plane table survey conducted based on the final corridor of impact.

Baseline Socio-economic Survey (BSES)1.32 Data collection and preparation of documentation was started in 1997 and a BSES

was prepared and finalized in 1998 for 2171 structures. Later, the alignment of SCLR changed and new hutments were covered. The Supplementary BSES was

18

prepared in 2002. Again, changes in the alignment took place resulting in some households being excluded and new ones included. A consolidated BSES for the Santacruz Chembur Link Road was prepared in November 2003 but there have been changes in alignment after that date. Hence, an updated BSES was prepared in December 2004, which superseded all the earlier tabulations. As a result of minor changes in the alignment due to the techno-economic feasibility and operational difficulties, in certain areas number of PAHs either increased or decreased in BSES of December 2004 as compared to BSES of November 2003. The details of the baseline survey data are available in database maintained by MMRDA.

1.33 The BSES data of December 2004 identified 3389 structures located in the SCLR corridor. This included 2638 residential structures, 726 commercial structures and 25 residential cum commercial structures. In addition 23 community and religious structures were identified under the “others” category. A profile of key socio-economic data pertaining to BSES data of December, 2004 by household and commercial unit is given in Annexure I of Volume II. Presented below is Table 1.2 which identifies the year in which the BSES was conducted and subsequent surveys to update the BSES data.

1.34 Subsequent to the BSES of December 2004, with the finalization of the alignments the execution of the SCLR for a width up to 45.7 m. was impacting a total of 3021 structures out of which 2472 are residential, 524 commercial and 25 structures were residential-cum – commercial as identified in the RIP of September 2005. Subsequently, during the further site clearance additional 127 structures were found to be impacted of which 103 are residential, 16 are commercial and 8 are residential cum commercial.

19

1.35 In addition to this, there were 23 other religious structures and community properties affected as identified in the RIP for September 2005. These included 7 temples, 1 church, 1 Masjid, 1 Gurudwara, 6 Madarasa, 3 balwadis, 2 political party offices, 1 worker’s centre and 1 committee office. Subsequently, 1 madarasa was identified as commercial establishment; one Temple, one Party office & one Health Centre were found to be beyond alignment. Out of 19 remaining religious and community structures, one temple and one balwadi have been shifted to Ghatkopar and Hiranandani-Mankhurd sites respectively. Therefore, there are 17 religious and community structures to be shifted.

1.36 Therefore, taking into account December 2004 BSES and additional impact mentioned above, the total of 3167 structures would be impacted of which 2575 are residential, 540 are commercial, 33 are residential plus commercial and 19 other community/religious structures. Out of this till April 30, 2006, total of 2591 structures have been resettled of which 2418 are residential, 145 are commercial, 26 are residential plus commercial and two religious/community structures. Consultations with the associations of religious and community structures have been initiated and relocation options are being worked out. The details are covered in Chapter 4 section 4.14. Further to this about 754 additional structures are getting affected due to the final alignment for 45.7 m. This includes 492 tenements of 20 MHADA buildings and 262 encroached slums in the areas of Sable Nagar, Shanta Jog Marg, Rahul Nagar and Nehru Nagar are also getting impacted by the finalization of the alignment.

1.37 Taking all the PAHs into account total number of impacted structures, the total number of impacted structures are 3921 including residential units-2575, MHADA tenements-492, residential encroachments for which BSES is yet to be completed-262, Commercial-540, Residential-cum-commercial-33 and other community structures-10, religious structures-9. Table 1.3 has been updated to include additional impact as observed during the site clearance and the number of PAHs shifted and lists the total number of project affected households and elaborates the details pertaining to the impacts due to finalization of the alignment. Table 1.3 includes figures for 492 MHADA tenements and 262 other encroachments for which BSES has yet to be done in the column for remarks.

20

1.38 Additional impact to be generated due to shifting of two electric Pylons located at Panchasheel Nagar and Rahul Nagar and retraining of the drainage at Sable Nagar shall be documented and mitigated based on special verification (Independent BSES) with the concurrence of the World Bank. The drawings indicating impacts due to Pylon relocation at Rahul Nagar, Drainage Diversion at Sable Nagar and Proposed widening at Shanta Jog Marg are included in Annexure II of Volume II.

Consultation 1.39 The first stage of consultation was at the time of preparation of the baseline socio-

economic survey when the affected groups were made aware of the project and its benefits. Preliminary discussions and meetings were held with the PAPs about relocation to Mankhurd site. Further discussions and meetings were held with the affected groups while preparing the RIP by to take affected groups into confidence. The results of public consultation are being documented in the form of records, photographs, video clippings and minutes of the meetings etc. The specific types of consultations carried out are summarized in the following Table 1.4:

1.40 Twenty (20) MHADA buildings are getting affected. Consultations with the residents of the MHADA buildings at chainage -0 +900 to 1+000 (3 Buildings, 88 tenements) and 2 + 000 to 2 + 900 (17 buildings, 404 tenements) were initiated in the first week of September, 2005. A listing of the consultations held with residents of these buildings is listed out in Table 5.1 in Appendix-I. In case of the MHADA buildings (new Tilak Nagar) the viaduct does not affect the structures. The residents of these buildings will have to relocate only when construction of the slip roads within the full 45.7 m width of the road is taken up. Hence it is proposed that the construction work be sequenced in such a manner that works progresses without actually affecting the adjoining structures. For this purpose, it is possible to start construction of the second floor level of the viaduct on the existing road—without actually affecting the buildings. Meantime discussions with MHADA Building residents at New Tilak Nagar shall continue for an early resolution of the issues.

1.41 Interactions are being held with the residents of these buildings to facilitate conduct of BSES. Annexure VII of volume II includes the detailed minutes of the consultations held with them along with a tabulation of the issues raised by them and the steps taken by MMRDA to facilitate conduct of the BSES.

Disclosure of Draft RIP1.42 The issues considered during these discussions were related to relocation sites, the

PAH entitlements, compensation, economic benefits, and grievance redress mechanism including the provision of Independent Monitoring Panel. The RIP has been prepared incorporating the above discussions; the process to be followed in R & R and the timetable for different key activities is also shared with the PAHs.

1.43 As public information and consultation is a continuous process, during the resettlement phase, a site specific Public Information Centre has been set up at MMRDA. In addition to this a separate PIC has been set up at LOUIS BERGER Office (SCLR, beginning of phase I). A third PIC has been set up at building no. 15, Mankhurd. Copies of BSES, RIP, DPR and EMP for SCLR and CEMP for Mankhurd have been made available for anyone to read and give suggestions and submit their grievances to MMRDA. A visitor’s register is maintained at each of these PICs in order

25

to record the names of the visitors to the PICs, the purpose of the visit and the nature of queries of the visitors.

1.44 Some of the generic suggestions and feedback comments which were put forth by the PAHs may be elaborated thus in Table 1.5:

2 Time of Shifting / relocation- Relocation should be timed after the school examinations

Efforts will be made suit the PAHs while timing their relocation. When it is not possible to adjust the relocation time, then the PAH will be provided transportation to and from the examination centre.

Project Affected Households/ Land and their entitlement

1.45 The land for resettlement colony consisting of 38287.5 sq. m. has been obtained using Transferable Development Rights (TDRs). The distribution of PAHs by impact categories is summarized in Table 1.3.

According to R&R policy, the people affected by this project losing houses (those without having legal title) are entitled to tenements of area measuring 20.91 sq.m. The affected shopkeepers are entitled to an equivalent area, if affected area is less than 20.91 sq.m. If

27

the affected area is more than 20.91 sq.m.,the owners would be provided commercial unit up to 20.91 sq.m. area free of cost and they would be entitled for maximum area up to 70 sq. m. however they have to pay the cost of above 20.91 sq.m. In addition, there is a provision for providing compensation to those whose travel distances to place of work increases. This compensation would be either in the form of cash or for shifting their household items. It is also proposed to create a separate Community Revolving Fund (CRF) and after seeking the consent of each co-operative housing society. The creation of CRF is a long-term solution, which would assist the PAPs to maintain their tenements. Any loss of employment suffered by workers in the commercial establishments to be shifted shall be compensated with provision of allowance equivalent to one year’s wages as provided for in the R &R policy. (Details are presented in section 4.14 of Chapter 4).

Community and Religious properties

1.46 In SCLR Phase I project in the category ‘Others” 19 structures are affected. These include 10 community structures and 9 religious structures.

Chapter II LAND ACQUISITION

LAND ACQUISITION FOR PROJECT

2.1 The total area required for this project is 47,856 sq.m. Out of this 11,090 sq.m is a private land which was acquired in 1987 by using the land acquisition (LA) process. There are no outstanding compensation payments related to this land acquisition. However, the possession of the land has not been taken due to encroachments. The balance land of 36766 sq.m belongs to Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA), Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), Indian Railways (IR) and Kurla Dairy (KD). Since the alignment for this road is included in the development plan, a No Objection Certification (NOC) from the respective agencies is required to be obtained which will be completed before award of civil works. The details of land required for project and its acquisition status are presented in Table 2.1.

2.2 In certain patches public land available for civil works but encroached by squatters has to be acquired and handed over for civil works to the Contractor after undertaking appropriate measures for the squatters. The Table 2.3 below depicts a detailed picture of area of land to be acquired from concerned public authorities. The LA Act, 1894 shall not apply, as acquisition of land will involve legal transfer of holding from one government agency/public authority to other. The transfer of land would involve issuance of no objection certificate by the concerned land holding agency based on mutually agreed Terms and conditions.

2.3 Where public land where structures are under the legal occupation of a private persons such as in case of MHADA Buildings wherein MHADA holds the land title and has handed over the tenements in multistoried buildings it has constructed to private individuals on lease basis, in addition to obtaining no objection certificate from MHADA, provisions for tenements shall be made for the lessee occupants.

LAND ACQUISITION FOR RESETTLEMENT COLONY2.4 A land parcel at Mankhurd measuring 38,287.5 sq m area has been selected for

constructing permanent tenements and commercial units for residential hutments and shops affected by SCLR project. Following discussions and consultations with PAHs regarding suitability of site and availability of the structures, MMRDA and SPARC decided to provide permanent units for residential and commercial structures for the people affected by SCLR Phase I project at this site.

2.5 For the resettlement of affected structures/people of SCLR Phase I project, the BSES data of December, 2004 provided for resettlement of 2638 residential, 25 residential cum commercial and 726 commercial tenements along with the basic amenities. The details of the resettlement site under ‘B’ option are given in the Table 2.4:

2.6 Out of the 726 commercial units, four different sizes of units have been identified based on their present area and accordingly it has been incorporated in the design. The provision has been made to accommodate some of the shopkeepers in the ground floor of the proposed tenements for the PAPs of Santacruz Chembur Link Road Phase I project at Mankhurd Option B site. A separate shopping complex having 720 shops is being constructed within the same site under Mumbai Urban Infrastructure Project (MUIP), which could accommodate the remaining shopkeepers,

32

and it has been ensured that they are provided with the shops according to their entitlement envisaged in the R & R Policy.

2.7 The proposed resettlement site has a provision of allotment of society offices, balwadis (Child Care Centres) and welfare centres. The amenities required have been estimated based on the rate of 1 amenity for every 100 households. In addition to this, the community urban infrastructure facility such as development of approach road to the railway station, water supply, storm water drains, septic tanks, recreational gardens, tree plantation etc. have been provided. The schools and other educational facilities will be provided on adjacent land that is reserved in the MCGM’s Development Plan. It is also proposed to enhance the capacity of existing municipal dispensary and maternity home at Deonar and additional Health Care facility will be developed on adjacent land of about 2800 sq. m. reserved for Post Office.

2.8 The process of obtaining the consent of land owners by either giving TDR or by paying cash compensation under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 has been completed.

Chapter III BASELINE SOCIO-ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS

Introduction

3.1 In order to establish the baseline characteristics of affected persons, the census and Socio-economic surveys were undertaken among the people affected by the project. The Census and Socio-economic surveys were carried out during 1998 to collect baseline information. The additional socio-economic information / data was carried out in October 2002. Data collection and preparation of documentation was started in 1997 and a BSES prepared for 2171 structures. Later, the alignment of SCLR changed and new hutments were covered. The Supplementary BSES was prepared in 2002. Again, changes in the alignment took place resulting in some families being excluded and new ones included. A consolidated BSES for the Santacruz-Chembur Link Road was prepared in March 2003 but there were changes in alignment after that date. Hence, an updated BSES was prepared in December 2004, which supersedes all the earlier tabulations. This is being treated as cut-off date.

3.2 Subsequent to the BSES-December 2004, in the RIP of September 2005, as per the finalization of the alignments the execution of the SCLR for a width up to 45.7 m., the impact covered a total of 3021 structures out of which 2472 were residential, 524 commercial and 25 structures are residential-cum – commercial. This included, additional 127 structures were found impacted as follows: residential-103, commercial-16, and residential cum commercial-8 found impacted during further site clearance.

3.3 In the September 2005 RIP, 23 religious structures and community properties were recorded as affected. These included 7 temples, 1 church, 1 Masjid, 1 Gurudwara, 6 Madarasa, 3 balwadis, 2 political party offices, 1 worker’s centre and 1 committee office. However, as per latest data, 19 religious and community structures are recorded as affected. 1 madarasa, identified as commercial establishment, has been taken out from the list and one Temple, one Party office & one Health Centre was found to be out of alignment.

3.4 Therefore, after the revision of the December 2004 BSES, the total impact is as follows: Total structures: 3167, residential -2575, commercial-540, residential plus

34

commercial -33 and other community/religious structures-19. Out of these, till date, a total of 2591 structures have been resettled: residential-2418, commercial-145, residential plus commercial-26, community & religious structures-2. (Please see Table 1.3 in chapter 1 for details).

3.5 Consultations with the associations of religious and community structures have been initiated and relocation options are being worked out as per procedure specified at Section 4.17, Chapter 4. Further to this about 754 additional structures shall be affected due to the final alignment for 45.7 m. This includes 492 tenements of 20 MHADA buildings and 262 slum encroachments in Sable Nagar, Shanta Jog Marg, Rahul Nagar and Nehru Nagar. Once the survey for these structures is complete, R&R measures shall be taken as per approved Policy norms, a note on which shall be shared with the World Bank for approval.

3.6 Taking all the PAHs into account total number of impacted structures shall be as follows: Total impacted structures-3921, Residential-3329, Commercial-540, Residential plus commercial-33, community structures-10, religious structures-9. Additional impact as observed during the site clearance and the number of PAHs shifted and lists the total number of project affected households and the details pertaining to the impacts due to finalization of the alignment are given in Table 1.3 of chapter 1.

3.7 Additional impact to be generated due to the shifting of two electric Pylons located at Panchasheel Nagar and Rahul Nagar and retraining of the drainage at Sable Nagar shall be documented and mitigated based on special verification (special BSES) with the concurrence of the World Bank. The drawings indicating impacts due to Pylon relocation at Rahul Nagar, Drainage Diversion at Sable Nagar and Proposed widening at Shanta Jog Marg are included in Annexure II of Volume II.

3.8 There were 154 residential and 193 Commercial establishments found locked during the BSES and the data about them has been updated in May 2005 and subsequently January 2006. Now it was found that 27 residential and 7 commercial establishments are still found locked. This has been indicated in Part V Annex I of Volume II. As a result of minor changes in the alignment due to the techno-economic feasibility and operational difficulties, small changes in data on impacted PAHs may occur which shall be duly recorded and addressed in the R&R process in consultation with WB.

35

The details of the baseline survey data are available in database maintained by MMRDA. The BSES data of December 2004 is enclosed as Annexure I of Volume II.

Implications for Resettlement

3.14 Many PAHs under the commercial category have medium and large commercial units, which include hardware shops, scrap shops, automobile parts shops, garages and timber marts. Such commercial shop owners are not very enthusiastic to relocate to the Resettlement site. Some of them are keen on in-situ relocation or relocation in the near vicinity of their existing shops. A Business Needs Study was carried out by World Bank with the help of M/s. Chesterton Meghraj Property Consultants Private Limited in order to assess and determine ways in which resettlement options could be explored to match business needs of these commercial PAHs. Subsequently, the Government of Maharashtra prepared an Action Plan for resettlement and rehabilitation of the PAHs in the commercial category, which has been agreed upon. Section-4.11 to 4.16, Chapter-4 of this report deals with Resettlement options and procedures for commercial PAHs as well as for workers feared to lose jobs after resettlement of such PAHs.

Cut –off date

4.9 In order to establish the baseline characteristics of affected persons, the census and Socio-economic surveys were undertaken among the people affected by the Santacruz Chembur Link Road Phase I project. Data collection and preparation of documentation was started in 1997 and a BSES prepared for 2171 structures. Later, the alignment of SCLR changed and new hutments were covered. The Supplementary BSES was prepared in 2002. Again, changes in the alignment took place resulting in some families being excluded and new ones included. A consolidated BSES for the Santacruz Chembur Link Road was prepared in March 2003 but there have been changes in alignment after that date. Hence, an updated BSES has now been prepared in December 2004, which supercedes all the earlier tabulations. This will be treated as cut-off date. No structure coming up after this date will be considered for the resettlement. The NGO - SPARC is in regular contact with the PAPs through their representative groups and efforts are made to prevent encroachment by building social pressure. PAPs are informed about their entitlements and R&R policy provisions. Those who have come after the cut-off date would be informed about their non-entitlement and MMRDA would issue notices giving them reasonable time of three months and opportunity to vacate the land for the project.

Issue of Identity cards

4.10 Identity cards with a photograph consisting family members and affected structure will be issued to PAHs by September 2006. One copy of the identity card will be kept with the MMRDA and another copy at the PIC at MMRDA. Identity card would give information about identification number, use of the structure, photograph, address and entitlement of the PAHs. The NGO, MMRDA and PAPs will sign these identity cards. 27 residential and 7 commercial establishments are still found locked, which will be again verified during the issue of identity cards. The data about PAPs in the identity card would be updated by August 2006. Thereafter, those who are found not in use, locked or closed, would be treated as absentee landlords and would be compensated only for the structure. The work of preparation of identity cards is in progress.

Resettlement Options and Procedures

53

Option II: Relocation to Motilal Nehru Nagar Under SRA Scheme: The commercial PAHs of SCLR shall have the option to shift to commercial tenements developed under Slum Rehabilitation Scheme (SRA Scheme) on land owned by MMRDA at Motilal Nagar, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC). As per the SRA Policy, the developer has to surrender some constructed tenements to MMRDA, which will be offered first to fully affected PAPs of SCLR to provide them with locational advantage. Subsequently, the option will be open for partially affected commercial structures. At Motilal Nehru Nagar, a maximum of 225 sq.ft. shall be offered to SCLR PAPs due to non availability of adequate number of commercial tenements. However, provided the PAP is entitled to receive additional eligible area, he will be offered area up to 750 sq.ft in any other resettlement site excluding the Powai R&R site. In addition, the MMRDA shall facilitate transfer of service connections (such as telephones, licenses, etc.) to new locations.

Option III: Wadala Truck terminal (WTT): The PAPs who have automobile and transport businesses at SCLR will have the option to move to already constructed shops at WTT. The ‘Truck Terminal’ at Wadala (WTT) being developed by MMRDA is spread over 80 hectares of land. MMRDA has already constructed some buildings and allotted some commercial and warehousing units to the transport companies. An inter-State bus terminus is being run on a temporary site at WTT, which is located close to permanent and transit tenements at Anik-Wadala. MMRDA shall offer commercial and warehousing units to SCLR PAPs engaged in automobile/transport related business. Alternatively, MMRDA may also consider offering developed land within WTT if sufficient numbers of eligible PAPs, including industrial PAPs, having unique space requirements for their businesses, are willing to accept the offer.

Option IV: Protection to partly affected shops: The SCLR commercial PAPs whose structures are not fully affected due to final alignments of 45.7 mt. Shall be allowed to retain the remaining part of the structure and carry on with their business with the concurrence of

55

the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM). Structures of non-title holders are tolerated as per the ‘Development Control’ of the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai. If partial structure is required for public utilities, then the MCGM allows such structures to continue on the condition that the height of the balance structure does not exceed 17 feet. In case of SCLR PAPs, whose structures are partially affected would be allowed to continue at the present location provided the PAP does not avail any other benefits under the R&R Policy. A letter undertaking to that effect shall be obtained from the occupants. A permission letter to maintain status quo on the balance area will be issued mentioning that the status of the structure shall remain as it was before the permission was granted for repairs/reconstruction and additional height. Such a letter could be issued by the MCGM after such an arrangement is finalized.

Option V: Allowing capitalization of R&R Title: The R&R policy restricts transfer/ disposal in any manner of tenements allotted under MUTP for a minimum period of ten years. This procedure followed by the SRA is applied mutatis-mutandis to MUTP. In case all the above options fail to satisfy some PAPs, and if they are unable to carry out the business at the R&R site, the above restriction on transfer/disposal of tenements may be relaxed for allowing capitalisation of the asset value of the allotted shop. This option will allow the PAP to restore incomes through assignments. As this involves change in the existing policy, the GOM will consider waiving this restriction case by case. It is believed that case by case offer of the above options to SCLR commercial PAPs, will provide them opportunities to maintain their incomes and facilitate satisfactory resolution of shopkeepers’ concerns.

4.13 Negotiation Procedures: Negotiations with eligible commercial PAPs has already been initiated for identifying options and facilitating early relocation to R&R sites. The following procedure shall be adopted for negotiations with SCLR commercial PAPS for offer of various options mentioned above.

Meetings shall be held with shopkeepers from different work front sections (chaiangewise) in order to identify their varying needs, concerns, on the basis of eligibility criteria set down in R&R policy.

56

Commercial PAPs with less than 225 sft of shop area shall be provided with normal available options with basic minimum negotiations required.

After general discussions, commercial PAPs with shop area above 225 sft shall be realistically categorised into specific groups with special relocation concerns, such as semi-industrial and automobile/transport businesses.

Special group based and individual negotiations shall be held in order to sort out differences in perception and address concerns of the said commercial PAPs by offering them with the above relocation options.

Discussions/negotiations held with affected SCLR shopkeepers in various stages for different work front sections and categories shall be properly documented for future reference.

Agreements reached with each group/ individual shopkeeper shall be documented with mutual consent duly recorded.

Site visits shall be part of negotiations in order to realistically assess relocation needs and concerns of the affected commercial PAPs.

All negotiations shall be between MMRDA and shopkeepers except where mutually agreed third parties are invited as observers/moderators.

Complicated issues affecting a specific category of shopkeepers, if required, shall be referred to the IMP for advice and suggestion, as provided for in the upgraded Grievance Redress Process.

A consent letter based on negotiations held duly signed and sent by the concerned commercial PAPs to MMRDA shall form the basis for issue of final allotment letter in his/her favour.

The issue of the allotment letter based on the above agreement shall mark the successful completion of the negotiation process for resettlement.

The negotiation process shall be adequately documented by MMRDA.

4.14 Protecting Livelihoods of Affected Employees: BSES December 2004 records the presence of 447 employees working in commercial establishments at SCLR. The owners of the affected shops losing their existing business will get alternative shops at the R&R sites, which will economically re-establish them. However, the 447 employees (Annexure VI in Volume II) may or may not find it easy to regain jobs after relocation.

57

4.15 The employee working at affected commercial units at SCLR are generally expected to retain their jobs even after relocation given their experience and skills. However, some employees may however lose jobs with change in businesses by the shopkeepers or due to spatial downsizing of shops/ commercial units after relocation. In such cases, as provided under the R&R policy the economic needs of such workers shall be addressed as part of the R&R process.

4.16 MMRDA would give publicity to its GOM R&R Policy, which provides for payment of one year’s income as onetime assistance to those employees who are not re-employed. The MMRDA would scrutinize and process appeals for employment assistance as and when formal requests are received from such employees. The one-year income to be offered to employees will be determined by the R&R Valuation Committee as described in the Implementation Manual. The employees will be issued identity cards prior to their displacement.

Resettlement of Religious and other Community Structures:

4.17 The relocation of religious/other community structures will be undertaken in accordance with the agreement recorded in the prescribed format as available in Attachment- 4 of the Volume-1.

Procedure for R&R Measures for Any Further Change in Alignment

4.18 Some realignment in SCLR likely to take place during the implementation relates to shifting of two electric pylons and retraining of a drain, which is explained below. The procedure for addressing R&R needs in these cases shall be as follows: A special BSES shall be carried out to identify the affected households/ shops, any other structure and a “Special Note of R&R Measures” for such realignment shall be prepared. After due approval of such a Note, R&R measures shall be implemented as per principles and procedures set

58

down in this RIP in line with the GOM R&R Policy prior to clearing such affected patches for civil work.

4.19 Pylon Relocation: MMRDA has already taken steps to have two pylons on the SCLR alignment shifted namely those located in Rahul nagar and Indira Nagar. For this purpose the Civil Contractor has deposited Rs. 70 Lacs with the Utility Company (Tata Power) and requested them to relocate the same. Tata Power has not indicated the final alternative sites for these pylons. It is expected that the additional R & R impact, if any, due to this will be minimal and as and when this relocation is finalized by the utility company. MMRDA will provide a supplementary NOTE on the RIP for such additional impact and its mitigation through appropriate R&R measures prior to actual shifting of the said pylons.

4.20 Drain Diversion: In the Sable Nagar area of SCLR an existing drain (Nallah) will have to be diverted outside of the 45.7 m alignment ROW. For this necessary comments and remarks have to be sought from MCGM and accordingly the Nallah shall be diverted. MRDA is coordinating efforts with the concerned department at MMRDA and its is expected that the final diversion of the Nallah will also result in certain additional R & R impacts in Sable Nagar. Right now, it is not possible to ascertain the exact nature of impacts. As and when the final Nallah Diversion is finalised, MMRDA will prepare a supplementary NOTE on the RIP and and implement the same after due approval before the actual drain retraining work.

Proposed Resettlement Sites

4.21 A plot of land at Mankhurd of 38,287.5 sq m under Option B has already been selected for constructing permanent tenements for residential and commercial structures affected by SCLR Phase I project. The decision has also been made to provide permanent tenements for residential and commercial structures for the people affected by SCLR Phase I project to this site after subsequent discussions and consultations with PAHs, NGO and MMRDA regarding suitability of site and availability of the structures.

4.22 Out of the 5910 housing tenements, which are already constructed, the first 2364 tenements will be allotted to those residents in Mankhurd and Turbhe Mandale transit houses since they have spent more than 3 years in the transit

59

camps. Then 458 housing tenements will be allotted to those affected by Kurla-Thane sub-project. The remaining 3088 housing tenements from Mankhurd B option, will be used for resettlement of PAHs of the SCLR phase I sub-project. Out of total 895 commercial units most of which are already constructed, 199 units will be allotted to structures affected by SCLR phase-II and remaining 751 units will be allotted to structures affected by SCLR phase-I. The housing tenements and commercial structures for the PAHs of the SCLR phase-I sub-project will be shifted after finalizing Annexure-II and after giving allotment letter.

4.23 The details given below pertain to the entire resettlement site under Mankhurd ‘B’ option. For R&R of SCLR project phase I, residential, residential cum commercial and commercial tenements required along with amenity are mentioned below:

4.24 A total number of 220 commercial tenements are available at Motilal Nagar, BKC developed on MMRDA land under the SRA scheme. As per terms and conditions agreed with the developer, certain proportion of commercial tenements shall be made available to MMRDA, which the latter will utilise for exclusively resettling SCLR commercial PAPs, who will lose their structures fully due to the final alignment. Once this category of commercial PAPs have go their allotment, the remaining commercial tenements, if still available, shall be offered to other commercial PAPs who may lose their structures partly due to the final alignment.

4.25 The ‘Truck Terminal’ at Wadala (WTT) being developed by MMRDA is spread over 80 hectares of land and is located close to permanent and transit

60

tenements at Anik-Wadala. The SCLR commercial PAPs having semi-industrial, automobile/ transport businesses will have the option to move to already built shops at WTT. MMRDA has constructed some buildings and allotted some commercial and warehousing units to the transport companies. An inter-State bus terminus is being run on a temporary site at WTT. MMRDA may also consider offering developed land within WTT if sufficient numbers of eligible PAPs, including industrial PAPs with special space requirements are willing to accept the offer.

4.26 MMRDA has developed a number of R&R sites under the MUIP, which shall also be open for relocation choices by the SCLR commercial PAPs as well as residential PAHs. These MUIP sites shall however not have the same post-resettlement support as MUTP R&R sites, a fact which shall be disclosed at the time of allotment to the willing PAPs.

4.27 The table below provides a broad picture of R&R sites developed under MUTP and MUIP. The MUIP resettlement sites are also open to PAPs interested to voluntarily opt for relocation to the same on their own.

4.28 The shops in the new construction are planned in accordance with the requirement of PAPs. The PAPs suggestions of constructing single storied shopping plaza and providing 14 ft height has been considered while constructing the shopping plaza at Mankhurd which has been constructed under MUIP. As of April 2006, 2418 residential PAHs and 145 commercial PAHs and 26 Residential-cum-commercial PAHs have been relocated at Mankhurd and other R&R sites.

4.29 MUTP resettlement sites have provisions for society offices, balwadies and welfare centres. The amenities required have been estimated based on the rate of 1 amenity for every 100 households. In addition to this, the community urban infrastructure facilities water supply, storm water drains, recreational garden and tree plantations, landscaping has been provided. The schools and other educational facilities will be provided on adjacent land that is reserved

62

in the MCGM’s development Plan. It is also proposed to enhance the capacity of existing municipal dispensary and maternity home at Deonar and additional health care facility will be developed on an adjacent land of about 2800 sq. m. reserved for post office. The facilities such as religious places and community properties will be relocated / reconstructed from the present site. Layouts and plans of the resettlement site are presented in the Annexure IX in Volume II.

Allotment Process

4.29 he allotment of tenements and commercial units will be done through consensus keeping some principles in mind. There are 25 residential cum commercial establishments. These will be offered tenements on ground floor. Preference will be given in allotting the ground floor and first floor tenements to persons with age above 60 and with physical disabilities. The details of PAHs with persons over the age of 60 years are presented in Annexure V in Volume II. The allotment letters will carry information on grievance redress process discussed below. The allotment of specific tenements shall be made on the basis of draw of lots in order to minimise conflict among PAPs.

Grievance Redress Mechanism

4.30 Public Information Centres have been set up with necessary data and records for public information and reference at all R&R sites. PAP representatives, community leaders, women’s group members will be available here for resolving disputes and provide their required information to the people.

4.31 In order to address needs and concerns of the PAPs, as per the R & R Policy, a grievance redress mechanism has been installed. This institutional mechanism provides PAPs, especially those considered ineligible for any R&R benefits with the right to appeal for redress of their grievances. Grievance Redress Committees (GRCs) at field and senior level have been formed for this purpose. A brochure has been prepared posted on the MMRDA website for dissemination on principles and procedures of the grievance redress process,

63

which was upgraded in April 2006. As per this process, the allotment letters and ineligible notices shall carry information regarding GRC and also carry the brochure on GRC as an attachment.

4.32 Field level as well as Senior Level GRCs (FLGRC and SLGRC) are one man committees headed by an independent chairperson with representatives MMRDA, assisting NGO, PAPs, his or her representatives as respondents. FLGRC and SLGRC deal with cases of individual entitlement, whereas grievances relating to groups will have to be presented before the Independent Monitoring Panel (IMP), as such cases may involve policy related issues. Both FLGRC and SLGRC follow the procedure of carrying out record and field verification and holding meeting with the concerned PAP after informing him/her about specific location, date, and time of such meetings. During the field verification process, neighbourhood reference/discussion/data cross checking shall carry equivalent weight as documentary evidence.

4.33 As per the procedure, any aggrieved PAP can appeal to the Field Level GRC (FLGRC) within 2 working days from the day of issuance of the allotment letter/ ineligible or eviction notice to him/her, and will have additional 5 working days to furnish evidence in favour of his case before the FLGRC. On rejection of one’s appeal by the FLGRC, the concerned PAP will have the right to appeal to the SLGRC for a review of such verdict within 2 working days and additional 5 working days to furnish evidence in favour his/her case. The decision of the SLGRC once it is passed shall be final.

4.34 MMRDA has started upgrading all data and information relating to grievance cases, which are being computerised in right earnest. Such GRC related information would be suitably integrated in the MIS being developed for putting all necessary information relating to the R&R process in a comprehensive database now under development.

Disclosure of RIP and Consultations with PAHs

4.35 The draft RIP report has been kept in the PIC at MMRDA and Bandra-Kurla Complex. The final version of RIP document will also be made accessible to the PAPs to keep them informed about the timetable and other processes to be followed in the implementation. The document along with Marathi/Hindi

64

version of the RIP will be disclosed at the Public Information Center (PIC) of MMRDA and at Bandra-Kurla Complex for the access to the PAHs. A copy of the executive summary of the RIP prepared in September 2005 was made available on the web site of MMRDA since the first week of September 2005.

4.36 Consultations have been held at various stages in preparation of this RIP for for facilitating its smooth implementation. Such consultations will continue formally as well as informally on case-to-case basis, as the need may be, during all phases of the implementation process. The PAHs will be particularly consulted through their representative committees. Information on such consultations already held is presented in the Appendix to this Chapter.

Economic Rehabilitation Measures and Income Restoration Strategies

4.37 There are about 1133 number of households, which belong to vulnerable category. Out of these about 1096 households are below the line of poverty, 18 households are women headed household without a male member over 21 years of age, 19 households are women headed having income upto Rs. 5000 per month and 377 households having heads above 60 years of age. They will be provided with additional rehabilitation package such as access to credit to help them overcome difficulties on account of resettlement. This will be as part of the post resettlement support strategy discussed below (see section 4.46).

4.38 An assessment of economic rehabilitation needs at individual HH level will be done within 3-6 months of shifting and additional support for those relocation of households without any source of income will be provided as part of post resettlement support strategy discussed below. This will be done in a participatory manner to ensure that the community provides the correct information and assistance is provided to well deserving families. A draft format for participatory monitoring is furnished in Annexure X of Volume II.

Community Revolving Fund:

4.39 The R&R policy provides for cash compensation for increased travel distance because of relocation support for those losing permanent source of livelihood

65

as also for those employees of business establishments who lose their jobs. Individual housing co-operative societies will be given the option of setting up a Community Revolving Fund instead of travel compensation, as the latter is a long-term solution. A community Revolving Fund will be created through community savings and a project grant @ Rs.1000 per households to finance those who are in need of money for starting various business and other activities. Access will also be provided to government self employment schemes like Swarna Jayanti Swayam Rozgar Yojana (SJSRY) and where needed, training facilities for self-employment.

4.40 The objective of giving cash support to PAPs which require to travel more to workplace and which have lost permanent source of livelihood is to mitigate the impact of resettlement on livelihood. However, a series of discussions with affected groups of PAHs has revealed that communities are not keen on one time cash support, which may be difficult to administer and may be spent on extra consumption. It has been argued that administering cash support will be extremely difficult for data about places of work is not reliable and estimating the extent of livelihood losses in the informal sector is never easy. Such differential entitlements may also divide the community adversely affecting resettlement.

4.41 Therefore, instead of cash support, affected communities feel setting up Community Revolving Funds (CRF) could ensure long-term economic rehabilitation. CRF could provide access to credit for income generation activities. It will remain with the community and encourage productive investments for all members of the community. The Government of Maharashtra has cleared this scheme. Therefore, it has been decided that project will contribute @ Rs. 1000 per PAH towards to CRF, which will be used to leverage development grants and subsidies from government schemes by the PAPs.

4.42 The process will involve explaining entitlements under allowances/compensation for increased travel distance to work place or livelihood losses in individual co-operative housing society (CHS) general body meetings, formed in new tenements, in the presence of MMRDA representatives. CRF will be created after consent of the PAPs has been obtained in the form of a CHS resolution for creation of CRF in lieu of cash

66

allowances. The CRF will operate at the CHS level, for which a separate bank account shall be created by the concerned CHS. The ways and means of utilizing CRF resources shall be decided by the CHS.

Post-Resettlement Support Strategy

4.43 Post resettlement support holds the key to ensuring sustainability of R&R benefits provided to the PAHs. The PAHs earlier lived in horizontally spread out slums in difficult conditions without legal tenure, and proper basic services. Post resettlement, they are placed in multi-storied vertical structures with legal title, as members of CHS. This new opportunity brings with it new challenges. They have to manage their buildings, community assets and facilities such as balwadis, welfare centres, etc. They have also to manage their cooperative societies, and revolving funds which involve financial as well as organisational management needs. In order to address all these new challenges, they need to assess and enhance their resources, knowledge, skills, and capacities. MMRDA has already prepared manuals on building maintenance and management of CHS, and they have their own capacities, resources, and skills. In order to enable them to enhance and utilize thri resources, capacities and skills, there is a need for well planned capacity building and handholding support prior to final exit from the R&R colonies by MMRDA.

4.44 The post resettlement activities such as formation, registration, and management of CHS and revolving funds; mainstream linkage involves cumbersome administrative and organisational process, which will be delayed without suitable external hand holding support. The key post-resettlement activities involve supporting activities that allow the rehabilitated PAPs to consolidate their rights on the allotted property and the other community assets. These activities are formation of the co-operative housing societies, registration of the co-op societies with the registrar of co-op societies, regular receipt of interest on maintenance funds from SRA (Rs. 20,000 per PAP) for the first 10 years and the transfer of the capital, administration of community

67

revolving funds (CRF), accessing basic services etc. MMRDA has already initiated this process with the help of the assisting NGO which assisted in BSES and relocation activities. In the second phase, MMRDA has drawn an action plan to strengthen and upgrade the process of extending post-resettlement support as part of its exit strategy.

4.45 MMRDA has already invited expression of interest from capable and interested agencies for consultancy support for planning and implementing post-resettlement support activities (PRSA) based on a ToR agreed upon, which has been posted on the MMRDA website. The ToR sets down a three phase strategy: 1) Development of an concrete Action Plan based on the assessment of the actual post-resettlement situation and a gap analysis of existing and required resources and capacities; 2) implementation of the action plan over a period of one year extendable for another 6 months after reality check; 3) Evaluation of the intervention for exit with handing over of assets and institutions for sustainable self management by the CHS in the R&R colonies.

4.46 The capacity support activities provided for in the ToR for ensuring sustainable self management of the R&R colonies include three broad spectrum of activities: 1) capacity building of CHS and individuals in the fields of social, economic and environmental self management of assets and facilities; 2) Institutional management (registration and management support for CHS, CRF, etc); 3) Income generation activities for the most vulnerable socio-economic groups, especially women headed households through promotion and strengthening of women micro credit and micro enterprise activities.

Post-Resettlement Impact Evaluation

4.47 An impact evaluation of the post resettlement phase will be carried out according to the procedures outlined in the RIP of Phase I of SCLR and as part the ToR for post-resettlement support intervention.

Improvement in the Quality of Life of PAHs

68

4.48 Apart from the improved environmental standards, the following aspects of R&R will ensure improvement in the quality of life of PAHs. Indicators covering the following aspects and environmental variables that will be used to monitor and assess the project impact during the final evaluation are presented in Table 4.8 (Residential) and Table 4.9 (Commercial). The environmental and other infrastructure services such as water supply, roads, solid waste management, parking places, recreational places will be far better than the existing site.

Community Environmental Management Plan (CEMP)4.49 A Community Environmental Management Plans (CEMPs) have been

separately prepared for the Mankhurd resettlement site. The CEMP prepared takes into account pre-construction, construction and post-construction stage impacts and formulates environmental management plans in detail.

4.50 The brief and salient features of the resettlement sites are provided in the following paragraphs.

Locational Hazards: The common environmental hazard for all these locations is their very close proximity to the ROB and road, which is responsible for very frequent fatal and non-fatal accidents. The number of accidents are as large as about 8-10 per month. The post resettlement capacity building intervention would include awareness raising on common safety measures against incidents like fires, accidents, etc.

Solid Waste Disposal: Almost in all the sites garbage is thrown on open lands. Municipal van comes occasionally to these sites to collect the waste.

1 A community fund corpus will be created @ Rs.20,000/- per tenement and interest will be used for maintenance

71

The post resettlement capacity building intervention would include steps to develop a community garbage disposal plan.

Drinking water: As regards to drinking water infrastructure, water taps will be provided in each tenement. MMRDA has been closely monitoring water supply to the R&R sites. The water supply has been sought to be enhanced with construction and commissioning of higher capacity supply pipelines. The actual supply is being closely monitored. In order to address water needs during periods of occasional scarcity additional supply arrangements (water tankers) shall be made as and when required.

Sanitary facilities: As regards to sanitary facilities, people have inbuilt arrangement for toilets and bathrooms in their rooms. The post resettlement capacity building intervention would include steps to put in place a sustainable strategy for self management of individual sanitary facilities.

Strategy for Co-ordination between Civil works and R&R Activities 4.51 In order to ensure that resettlement is completed prior to commencement of

civil works, the civil work is proposed to be taken up in those stretches where land is free of squatters and encroachment-free. In those stretches where squatters are located, the civil works are planned after the affected people are shifted to new places. The civil works of about 20 % of section I and 2 % of section 2 are complete for SCLR phase I since there is no resettlement issue

72

involved in these stretches. Table 4.5 present work front section wise steps undertaken for clearing impediments with proper R&R measures.

4.52 The implementation of the RIP is over a period of 3 years starting with May 2005 (part of RIP for 30-39 m SCLR alignment earlier approved has been already started) till completion of the post-resettlement activities. The key activities to be implemented under this RIP are summarized below in Table 6.1-6.9 in the Appendix-II of this Chapter.

Cost and Budget

4.53 The total cost estimate for carrying out the R & R activities for the sub-project is based on the BSES data of December 2004. It is important to mention here that the cost estimate is subject to revision because of any change in the alignments or project scope. The estimated cost for the R & R activities is INR 670.05 million. The cost break-up for the various components of the R&R is depicted in Table 4.7.

APPENDIX-I

CONSULTATIONS HELD WITH PAHS IN VARIOUS CATEGORIES

Consultations with PAHs under Squatter Category

5.1 The RIP has been prepared in consultations with the owners of the affected residential and commercial structures by holding discussions and meetings at every stage. The first stage was at the time of preparing the baseline socio-economic survey when the affected groups became aware of the project and its benefits. The further discussions and meetings were held with the affected groups while preparing the RIP by SPARC to take affected group in confidence and this is a continuous process. The discussions and meetings were held with the PAPs about their resettlement at Mankhurd site, which is nearer to the existing site. The consultation meeting was held on February 11, 2005 at conference room of MMRDA.

5.2 The PAPs suggested that in order to facilitate approach to Mankhurd station, a small bridge across the nalla behind the shopping complex to be provided. MMRDA officers responded to this that there are already three approach roads have been provided at Mankhurd site making accessibility to Govandi Rly station, Mankhurd station, eastern express highway and western express highway. Some of PAPs suggested that their shifting to Mankhurd resettlement site be done after the final examinations of schools or if they are shifted before the final exam, the transportation arrangements up to resettlement site for appearing the exam needs to be arranged by MMRDA. MMRDA officers responded that PAPs from only those stretches would be resettled prior to examinations where the civil works are held up because of resettlement. In such cases MMRDA will provide to and fro transportation for appearing for examinations. The Annexure VII of volume II includes the following documents: Minutes of the consultations. Photographic documentation record of the public consultations for

squatters. A list of PAPs names attended the meeting. Signatures of PAPs attended the meeting.

5.5In case of the MHADA buildings (new Tilak Nagar) the viaduct does not affect the structures. The residents of these buildings will have to relocate only when construction of the slip roads within the full 45.7 m width of the road is taken up. Hence it is proposed that the construction work be sequenced in such a manner that works progresses without actually affecting the adjoining structures. For this purpose, it is possible to start construction of the second floor level of the viaduct on the existing road—without actually affecting the buildings. Meantime MMRDA will continue to pursue the matter with the residents of the New Tilak Nagar (MHADA Buildings) to bring forth an early resolution of the issues. A copy of the relevant letters for consultations issued by MMRDA to the

secretaries of the housing societies. A copy of letters from SPARC mentioning that the residents’ non

cooperation to conduct the BSES. A list of the PAPs names of MHADA buildings attended the meeting. Signatures of PAPs of MHADA buildings attended the meeting. A listing of the residents’ names in each of the affected buildings issued by

MHADA. Minutes of the consultations held with each of the associations / buildings. Photographic documentation record of the public consultations.

Consultations for relocation of community and religious structures

In SCLR Phase I project in the category ‘Others” 19 structures are affected. These include 10 community structures and 9 religious structures. Out of these religious structure one temple in Gazi Nagar has been shifted to Ghatkopar R&R site and 1 Balwadi has been shifted to Mankhurd-Hiranandani site in agreement with the PAPs . The detailed methodology of relocation of remaining community structures and the religious structure is described in this section. MMRDA will hold consultations with the custodian of the structures for relocation of the affected community and religious structures in accordance with the agreement recorded in the prescribed format given in Appendix-III of Volume-1.

Upon finalization of the agreement as above, and with adequate notice, concerned custodians would be asked to relocate the structures. MMRDA would provide necessary logistic support, if necessary for the affected custodian of the community/religious structures on case-to-case basis, bearing in mind the extra sensitivity of the issue.

A process of consultation has already been initiated for relocation of religious and community structures, information on which is presented in the table below. The options being explored in these discussions include in-situ relocation and new construction of affected religious and community structures at resettlement sites.
