CHAPTER 2

DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 Background of the Project including Developer’s Background and

Governance/Management structure

Often quoted as the Queen of Arabian Sea, Kochi is a major port city located on the

south-western cost of India. It is a part of Ernakulam District in the State of Kerala.

The city have a total urban population of more than 2.1 million within an area of

440 sq. km. as of 2011. Population growth rate of the surrounding municipalities

and villages is more as compared to the urban area which in turn constitutes to

increased traffic in commute between the mainland, nearby municipalities,

adjoining islands and panchayats. Recent traffic surveys and studies indicates the

rapid growth of vehicles in the city premises. This in turn increase traffic jam

during peak hours.

Kochi Metro Rail System was introduced to reduce private transport and encourage

public transit. Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL), as part of setting up of

Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA-KOCHI), have initiated steps to

implement a model transportation system for Kochi city region. Integrated Water

Transport System for Kochi is been initiated to integrate the water transport system

with other modes of transport

2.2 Rationale for Project, including how the project fits the public purpose criteria

listed in the Act.

At present several State Water Transport Development mainly operates water

transport system in Kochi. In addition to this various private operators and localised

jangar services operates service. Over the last decades the system have been

deteriorated due to depleting number of boats, low quality of boats, lack of safety

measures, poor assess of infrastructure to the jetties, etc. More than 20,000

passengers uses the services of present system on a daily basis of which more than

50% access water transport. It was also found through various surveys that more

than 70% of passengers are willing to shift to water transport system for transit as it

saves about 15 minutes in comparison with other mode of transport.

SOCIAL IMPACT MANAGEMENT PLAN MONITORING AND

EVALUATION

10.1 Key monitoring and evaluative indicators

Monitoring is a long-term process, which should begin from the starting of the

project and should continue throughout the life of the project. Its purpose is to

establish benchmarks so that the nature and magnitude of anticipated social impacts

can be continually assessed. Monitoring involves the continuous or periodic review

to determine the effectiveness of recommended mitigation measures. The types of

parameters that can be monitored may include mitigation measures or design

features, or actual impacts. All the mitigation measures stated in Chapter 7 should

be considered as the indicators for evaluation.

CHAPTER 11

ANALYSIS OF COSTS AND BENEFITS AND RECOMMENDATION

ON ACQUISITION

11.1 Final conclusions on: Assessment of public purpose, less displacing

alternatives, minimum requirements of land, the nature and intensity of social

impacts, and viable mitigation measures and the extent to which mitigation

measures will address costs

The proposed project is intended to implement Edakochi Boat Jetty.




The proposed land to be acquired is owned by 3 families and Jnanodayam Sabha. A

commercial building with two rooms is present in the proposed location. The

proposed land also includes a furniture workshop which was given for rent before

the declaration of COVID 19 lockdown by the Government of India.

The workshop named “Vihas International” started functioning from 2014, employs

4 permanent staff. Since the declaration of lockdown, the workshop have been

temporarily stopped functioning. Land acquisition will result in the loss of

workshop building which in turn result in the loss of employment of 4 individuals.

A vacant plot owned by Jnanodayam Sabha is located near road. This land is

bounded by a compound wall. No other structures are present in this particular plot.

Acquisition of land will cause a loss in land asset. The representatives of the Sabha

requested to exclude the land from acquisition as the remaining land cannot be used

for any other activities.

Through the proper measures as per Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency

in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement act (2013) and Rules (2015)

the negative impacts of land acquisition can be mitigated.



11.2 The above analysis will use the equity principle as a framework of analysis for

presenting a final recommendation on whether the acquisition should go

through or not.

Comparing/weighing the positive against the negative impacts, it can be observed

that the implementation of the project will result in improving the overall

development of tourism in Ernakulam district. Through the execution of proper

measures listed in chapter 7, the negative impact of the land acquisition can be

mitigated.

Thus, it can be concluded that the former outweighs the latter reaffirming the

identified site as the most suitable and apt one for the project. The families that are

affected would require adequate and fair compensation. It is observed that many of

the negative impacts highlighted can be minimized or reduced with effective and

relevant mitigation measures and strategies mentioned.

Thus the study suggests to acquire the land providing adequate compensation to the

affected people.
