1.2 Rehabilitation Policy

4. NRDA has prepared a Rehabilitation scheme based on the Rehabilitation Policy of the

Government of Chhattisgarh. It emphasizes that the agricultural land required for the development shall be purchased from the farmers on mutual consent instead of acquiring the land under the Land Acquisition Act, as far as possible. The compensation package for the land and assets over it, has been decided after a series of consultations at different level, with the project affected persons, public representatives and other stake holders. A hassle - free system is in place for registration of the sale deed of agriculture land and payment of compensation. The detailed rehabilitation policy for Naya Raipur is discussed in subsequent section.

1.3 BRTS Project - SUTP World Bank Assisted Project

5. NRDA prepared a DPR for development of BRTS and submitted it for inclusion in the

Sustainable Urban Transport Programme initiated by Government of India. The BRTS proposed by NRDA shall facilitate connectivity between Raipur and Naya Raipur.

1.4 Scope of SIA and RAP 7. To address and mitigate any adverse impacts on people and assests on account of the

Project (BRTS), the Government of India, and SUTP/ESMF (based on the World Bank Policies) require the implementing agency, NRDA to carry out Social Impact Assessment of Naya Raipur and prepare a Resettlement Action Plan for the BRT component.

8. For preparation of Social Impact Assessment (SIA) & Resettlement Action Plan (RAP),the scope of the work is given below:

(i) To conduct social impact assessment and mitigation measures among the project impacted persons for proposed BRTS and prepare a Resettlement Action Plan for project affected population.

(ii) To conduct public consultations in general and also to conduct general public consultations for awareness of the SUTP project

(iii) To conduct social assessment among various stakeholders particularly among the potential BRTS users to maximize social utility of the BRTS.

1.5 Methodology of SIA and RAP 9. The approach underlying the assessment of social impacts and developing appropriate

mitigation strategies is based on the principles of local participation and consultations with stakeholders etc. The broad methodology and methodological tools adapted for the preparation of the SIA are detailed below. This section deals with the approach and methodology followed for the collection and analysis of data for social impact assessment.

1.5.1 Socio-economic Profile and Baseline

10. A socio-economic profile for the project areas has been prepared based on the information collected from secondary and primary sources and provides an overview, levels of socio-economic development etc. of the Naya Raipur where the project will be implemented. A Resettlement Action Plan has also been prepared for the project, based on 100 percent Census/ socio-economic baseline survey of affected persons due to BRTS.

1.5.2 Stakeholder Consultations

11. The identification of stakeholders and social impacts involves systematic consultation with project beneficiaries, project affected people, women, vulnerable and poor members of the community, and other stakeholders who may have an influence over the project. To identify social impacts and concerns, consultations were undertaken with primary stakeholders: beneficiaries, poor and vulnerable groups, people who may potentially be impacted adversely by the project, and the implementing agency. Consultations were also carried out with secondary stakeholders: local community based organizations (CBOs) and community representatives as well as government departments etc.


1.5.3 RAP

Chapter 2 NayaRaipurCItySocio-economic Profile

2.1 Location

14. The new state of Chhattisgarh was formed on 1st November 2000 by carving out the region

of Chhattisgarh from the state of Madhya Pradesh. It is situated in the heart of India. It shares its borders with six States of the country namely; Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Orissa Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Andhra. At the time of formation of the State, the largest city Raipur was named capital of Chhattisgarh. Raipur is located near the centre of large fertile plains of Chhattisgarh region. With already burdened civic infrastructure, Raipur was ill-equipped to function as the administrative capital of the rapidly growing state. With a view to decongest the city and to provide adequate space for State level administrative office buildings and housing and also to cater to the infrastructural needs of industry and trade in the region, it was decided to develop a satellite town in a radius of 50 km, keeping Raipur as the centre.

15. The site for the New City “Naya Raipur” was selected at a distance of 17 km in the South-East of Raipur. The site is wedged between National Highway No. 6 (NH 6) on north and National Highway No. 43 (NH 43) on south and extends between kilometers 257/5 (West) and kilometers 253/3 (East) of NH 6 and kilometers 17 and kilometers 22/4 of NH 43.Naya Raipur gets its connectivity from NH6 in North through an interchange and access-controlled road (Road No. 1). The approach from NH-43 in south to Naya Raipur is provided by at – grade intersections. NH-6 is being widened to 4 lanes with median and service roads. The road junctions have been re-engineered and the number of crossing has been reduced, traffic signals are being provided. The work is in advance stage of progress. Widening of NH-43, from 2 lanes to 4 lanes is also under consideration by NHAI.The region enjoys very good railway connectivity. The railway line runs almost parallel to the National Highway No.6. The Mumbai-Howrah railway line passes through Raipur. Other railway line Raipur to Visakhapatnam broad gauge line passes through northern part of Naya Raipur and has potential to provide railway connectivity to Naya Raipur. Raipur Airport is situated in the middle of Raipur and Naya Raipur, in the village of Mana, and is popularly known as “ManaAirport”.

39. The administrative functions of the State Secretariat has been shifted from Raipur to Naya

Raipur in November 2012 whereas the BRT facilities will be completed in early 2014, therefore the Raipur – Naya Raipur public transport service shall have two phases:-


40. Phase I: Interim Service: The objective would be to provide bus services for government employees, service personnel residing in Raipur and visitors needing travel to state secretariat at Naya Raipur. NRDA has entered into Memorandum of Understanding with Raipur Nagar Nigam Transport Limited for providing Interim Bus Service which is functionalfrom 7th November 2012.

41. Phase II: BRT Service: It is proposed to commence full BRT bus service from January 2014, by the time the BRT infrastructures shall be in place.

42. BRTS Corridor III will be developed under SUTP. The Corridor III is selected keeping in view the future demand within Naya Raipur. Development of the residential zones in Naya Raipur will raise the demand in near future. This route serves the North-South the mobility covering the major points in Naya Raipur.

43. The second BRTS corridor i.e. Corridor II, would be subsequently developed, however, till

such time the corridor is developed as BRT corridor, NRDA would run simple city bus service that would cater to NRDA employees residing in that area. This Corridor is beyond the scope of SUTP.

Figure 3-1. BRTS Corridors (I and III) Under SUTP

44. The Route Length, Ownership of Road Section within the Route and the road sections which

have been constructed as a project component under SUTP Naya Raipur by NRDA through State Government grant are described below:

3.3 BRTS Infrastructure 45. The sites for the BRT facilities like depot, transfer Station, night parking facilities have been

analyzed by rating them on parameter (a) accessibility by majority of users (b) land availability (c) land procurement cost, number and cost of involuntary settlement. The sites emerging as most suitable one for the respective components based on the aforesaid parameters were selected. Selections of site for pick up points have been guided by availability of adequate space and accessibility to passengers.

3.3.1 Bus Depot

46. Bus Depot is proposed to be developed at Naya Raipur in area of 37270 sq m. The land is owned by NRDA. It is a land having gentle slope. Sufficient land is available for future expansion. The depot shall have servicing and maintenance-workshop facilities, fuelling and night parking facilities and control centre of Intelligent Transport System.The site including its surrounding is free from any settlement therefore is no resettlement issue involved. The site plan is given below:


3.3.2 Night Parking Facilities

47. The parking space, in front of gate no. 4 of the existing SecretariatBuilding in Raipur, shall be used for night parking of buses of Corridor I. It is a GovernmentLand and being used for parking of four wheel and two wheel motor vehicles. There is no land acquisition and displacement.

3.3.3 Stops in BRT Corridor

48. Bus Stops act as the entry and exit points to the system. As they are the single most important passenger interface; supporting a strong identity for the system, it is essential for these facilities to be aesthetically attractive convenient, comfortable, safe and easily accessible for all age groups of people.

49. The buses would operate in median side dedicated "bus only" lanes in Naya Raipur and in mixed traffic beyond Naya Raipur. The Bus Stops in mixed traffic are planned on the kerb side, one in each direction, at a given location. The left side of bus shall have steps to facilitate boarding and alighting at these pick up points. The bus stops in Naya Raipur are planned to be located on the medians and are termed as "Bus Shelter". The right side of the bus shall not have any step and would be used for level boarding and alighting through the high level median Bus Shelters by way of docking.

3.3.4 Pick-Up Points in Raipur

50. Two Pickup terminals have been identified in Raipur presented below.


At Railway Station – Raipur 51. One-way flow through the Railway Station terminal, buses moving in one entrance and out

the other, with suitable traffic engineering improvements made to facilitate entrances and exits from the surrounding streets has been considered. Walk access to the Railway Station terminal could be facilitated by extending the foot-over bridge crossing the mainline railway tracks to the vicinity of the bus terminal platform. Protected street crossings protected by signals should be provided from/to the areas surrounding the Railway Station. Sufficient space needs to be provided at the Railway Station terminal to accommodate buses on layover/schedule recovery for both local Raipur and BRT Lite services.

52. Alternative concept plans have been submitted to the Divisional Railway Manager (Raipur) for finalizing the location of the terminal. The railways officers suggested another location for the proposed terminal. The concepts plans are being prepared by the Consultant appointed for the designs by NRDA under the project. It is a railway land and any permanent dislocation is not involved.

At Existing Government Secretariat 53. The parking space, in front of gate no. 4 of the existing SecretariatBuilding in Raipur, shall be

used as a terminal and also for night parking of buses of Corridor I.

4.3 Other Impact and Mitigation Measures 59. The advent of a BRTS would enhance the development of Naya Raipur. However, the project

has the following impacts and issues - Specific areas, which are covered during the study, are given below in Table No 4.3.


Table 4.3. Impact and Mitigation Measures

Location ADVERSE IMPACTS AND MITIGTAIVE MEASURES

Additional Roads in Naya Raipur -There are 12 PAPs who lost the house due to construction of road no 12. The Relocation of 12 houses has been done. The affected families have been complemented and rehabilitated -Road no 13 required tree cutting. The trees were cut after obtaining Permission for 478 tree cutting has been granted by the competent authority. Tree plantation has been done to mitigate the impact on the village community.

Access to ponds and grazing ground in Naya Raipur

Accesses to ponds have been secured in the village development plan. Presently grazing grounds are available in the area where no construction activity has commenced. Subsequently when the area gets urbanized, a separate area would be earmarked for animals in the layer II of Naya Raipur.

Proposed Terminal near old secretariat in Raipur

Permanent dislocation of any house/shop is not there as it is government land

Transfer Terminal on NH-6 The land has not been transferred as yet finalized. Social impact shall be assessed separately once the land is transferred.

Proposed Pickup point at Raipur Railway Station

This is railway land. Permanent dislocation of any house/shop is not anticipated.

4.4 Socio Economic Profile of PAPs

4.4.1 General Profile

60. All the families barring one belong to the Satnami caste which is a category of the schedule caste. The average size of household is about 7 and the sex ratio for 15 families is 1208. About 87.5 percent of the households have a BPL card. 81 percent of the households owned agricultural land a few years ago which was sold to NRDA. They sold their lands in 2006-07 at the prevalent rates of Rs 10.00 lakh per hectare of land and Rs 1.00 lakh per hectare for irrigated land with an additional amount which has been paid separately. Subsequently extra payment of 5 percent was declared which has been paid to the affected persons. At the time of preparation of the SIA Report an additional 30 percent compensation was to be paid to the AFs as per revisions and policy provisions for the houses which has since been paid. Joint families are common. The practice of child marriages was prevalent in the community and area. Children were married before they reach puberty. Till the age of 15 or 16 the girl continues to reside in her maternal home. There is also a preference for male children due to which families tend to be fairly large. Dowry is prevalent although it was not articulated as a few AFs reported taking significant loans for the purpose of marriage in the family.

4.4.2 Literacy level

61. The literacy level is upto higher secondary with 1-2 exceptions who have done graduation. All the family members are not literate. Among the adults the illiterates especially those aged 25 and above comprised of 50 percent, those who had completed primary were 11.36 percent.

62. Family members who had completed secondary constituted 22.73 percent. Family members who had completed upto tenth standard comprised of 11.36 percent and graduates and post


graduates were just 2.27 percent each.Among those still continuing their education a large proportion 56.10 percent were in primary, 31.71 percent in secondary, 9.76 percent in higher secondary and upto tenth standard and just 2.44 percent in post graduation.

4.4.3 Occupational Structure and employment

63. Before relocation it was observed that 1-2 household members were engaged in some sort of regular employment while the rest are either operating petty shops (vegetable, tea stalls, dhabbas, grocery store) in their residential premises or on the temporary structures along the proposed roads. The earnings were sufficient for their needs. Only one youth was technically trained and he was working on part time basis.

64. 65 percent of the family members were working as labour (agriculture and non agriculture). 10 percent of the family members were engaged as contractors and 10 percent were engaged in skilled labour. 5 percent each of the family members were involved in services and pandal decorators.

4.5 Relocation of Houses

65. Relocation of 12 families has already been done and resettled in close proximity. The road

has been constructed by NRDA from State Government grant as provided in the funding plan. The employable members of all the affected families are engaged in meaningful employment. Among the displaced houses, only one house was pucca and the others were either Kaccha or semi pucca. The houses had a maximum area of 15X20 m with 2-5 rooms in each house. All the houses had separate space for cooking. Sanitation facilities were very poor with open water outlets and absence of toilets. The source of potable water for all the households was through a public hand pump which is located at a distance of 500 metres from the houses. Only one fourth of the households had a legal metered power connection. Most of the others had taken it illegally from the main power line.

66. The new houses are located near their old homes about 200 metres away. It is less than ten minutes walk to the man road. The APs have been provided with a pacca house consisting of a 1500 sq. ft house plot with a 400 sq ft built up area. The house consists of two rooms, kitchen and sanitation.


67. All these were squatters with no legal titles to the homestead land. In the relocation site, the houses that have been allotted to them give them legal titles to the homestead plot and house. The size of the plot is large enough for them to enlarge their house according to their needs or in addition construct structures for service units, shops, etc.

68. A well for drinking water is located less than 100 metres from dwelling unit for water supply. A borewell is in the process of being installed from which water will be provided to individual houses. All the houses were given electricity connection. Kaccha roads are available and these have to tarred or cemented.
