Institutional Arrangements will be set up at three levels viz., MoRT&H (Central Govt.), State
Level and Sub-Project Level on partnership model wherein concerned agencies at different
levels supplement and complement each other efforts. The key elements of institutional
arrangements are co-operation/ support, collaboration and sharing of responsibilities with
clearly defined roles, involvement of key stakeholders and vertical and horizontal linkages
amongst different agencies.
0.13 Grievance Redress Mechanism
The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) mandates formation of Grievance Redressal
Mechanism in order to resolve disputes in an effective manner and at the door steps of the
PAPs. Compensation and assistance as per eligibility is provided in the entitlement matrix of
the approved RPF. Grievance of PAPs will be brought to the grievance redress committee for

major metallic mineral i.e. Iron Ore, Led, Zinc, producing hub. The district has huge deposits of
low-grade sponge iron ore, which were simply ignored by the industry giants so far. Jindal SAW
recognized the potential and with guidance of GSI developed a huge iron ore mining and
beneficiation plant in the district. Now the district has become a magnet for all major steel
companies of the country. It has put the state of Rajasthan on the map of steel industries of the
Hindustan Zinc Ltd owned mining at village Agucha wherein Asia's largest deposit of Zinc, lead
and silver.
The major centres on the project road are Ras, Beawer, Asind and Mandal. Beawar is the
largest producer of cement in northern India and home to Shree Cement. It is situated in a

1.5 Scope and Objectives of Social Impact Assessment and Resettlement
Action Plan
SIA and RAP are project specific, which outlines the extent of impacts on communities due to
the proposed development project and the mitigation of the potential impacts. It details
necessary implementation procedures for rehabilitation and resettlement.
The SIA/RAP study is done for 116.750 km that start from Ras and ends at Mandal excluding
the overlapping sections of NH-8, and Shree Cement road. The design length includes 2
bypasses and 11 realignments also.
The SIA study has been carried out with following objective:
• Ensuring social factors are considered in the decision-making process and in final
design
• Ensuring that possible adverse social impacts are either avoided or minimised and
brought to acceptable level
• More informed decision making by involving public since the beginning of project,
informing the public about the proposal, allowing people to examine the underlying need
for a project and giving them opportunity to identify problem and suggesting social
friendly locally available solutions to the identified problem
• Improved integration of projects into their social setting
• A contribution towards achieving goal of sustainable development
The RAP is prepared to ensure that the affected persons are: (i) informed about their options
and rights pertaining to resettlement; (ii) consulted, provided with technically and economically
feasible resettlement alternatives and offered choices among them; (iii) provided prompt and
effective compensation at full replacement cost for loss of assets caused due to the project; (iv)
provided R&R assistances (such as shifting allowance, transition allowance, etc.) during
relocation and for a transition period, to restore their livelihood and standard of living; and, (v)
provided with skill development assistance such as training, in addition to compensation. The
objectives of RAP are: -
• To identify adverse impacts and determine mitigation measures;
• To present the entitlements and action plan for the affected persons for payment of
compensation and assistance for restoring livelihoods, and improving or at least
retaining the living standards in the post resettlement period.
• Facilitate the design of a monitoring programme to check the adequacy and
implementation of mitigate measures.
1.6 Approach and Methodology:-
This Report has been based, largely, on primary data collected during field survey and is well
supported by a review of available secondary data for preparation of baseline information. The
field research includes preliminary social survey of the project affected persons and properties
within the proposed ROW. The methodology used for SIA study and preparation of RAP is
discussed below:
• Census and Socio-economic survey: Census and socio-economic survey was
conducted for each structure and properties covering owners and squatter (format of
survey format attached as Annexure 1.2). This survey was conducted to assess the
extent of impacts due to proposed upgrading of project road.

Beawar – Asind – Mandal Section of NH-158 in the State of Rajasthan
• Data Collection from Secondary Sources
Relevant baseline data on socio-economic were collected from available secondary
sources, like census of India 2011, District Handbooks and respective government
portals and website.
• Stakeholder’s Consultations
Consultations with potential project affected persons and local people were conducted
to inform people about the proposed widening and improvement of the project road and
also to understand perceptions and obtain their suggestions. Outcome of the
consultations was shared with the design team of the consultant for integrating the
social concerns wherever feasible. The main objective of consultations was to promote
public understanding and find out meaningful solutions for issues related to local needs
and problems, loss of livelihoods, impact on religious structures, alternatives,
resettlement issues, etc.

CHAPTER - 2.: PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Project Profile
Project road starts from Ras (26°18'18.80"N Latitude, 74°11'17.42"E Longitude) and ends
near Mandal (25°26'09.49"N Latitude, 74°35'54.06"E Longitude) connecting to NH-48. The
project stretch traverses through rolling and hilly terrain and have mostly poor geometry except
few locations where curve improvement may not be required. Proposed length of the project
road is km 116.750 excluding the overlapping sections of NH-8, and Shree Cement road.
The length of the project road is 134 km including overlapping bypasses which passes through
Pali, Ajmer, Rajsamand and Bhilwara districts of Rajasthan. The project road under
consideration was declared as NH-158 by MoRTH in January 2013 and it comprises of SH-
39 (Ras to Beawar), Shree Cement Road which is a part of NH-8 (Beawar), MDR-84 and SH-
61. As per the initial design, the project road had overlapping sections at two stretches and
since these overlapping sections are already four lane, so these sections were excluded from
the project after discussion with NHAI. The details of these two stretches are given below:
1. Overlapping section of Shree Cement Road: There is an existing bypass at Beawar
which is actually a part of NH-8. After series of discussions with Client during
finalization of alignments, the Shree Cement Road was dropped from this project, as
informed during our site visit, this is an extension of existing Beawar bypass of NH-8.
The movement of traffic and existing bypasses to Beawar also considered in finalizing
the alignment.
2. Overlapping section of NH-8: The detailed inventory and analysis of NH-14 bypass
and NH-8 is also excluded from this report as these sections forming part of project
highway for connectivity is already developed and under operation by NHAI. Figure
1.1 shows changes made to alignment i.e. NH declared as per Gazette notification and
project section included in the development.
Key map of the project highway is shown in Figure below.

2.3 Existing Road Features and Constraints
The major constraints or challenges of utilizing the current facility are as listed below:
a) Dense Built-up and Settlements
b) Right of Way availability
c) Condition of the existing pavement
d) Condition of existing cross drainage structures
e) Safety of Road Users
f) Poor Geometry
Project immediate outcome will be improved accessibility to social services and markets,
increased fuel efficiency, reduced travel time, accidents, vehicle emissions and better
employment opportunities apart from agriculture, both through improved access to economic
centres and increased industrial activities in the project area.
2.3.1 Dense Built Up Areas & Settlements
Project road traverses through 23 nos. of Major Built-up / settlements. The presence of these
settlements obstructs the flow of traffic due to reduction in speed. The traffic flowing through
these sections also creates potential hazard to pedestrians. The major settlements are listed
in Table below.

The constraint of improving or upgrading the current road is the land availability in these built-
up sections.
2.3.2 Deficient Vertical and Horizontal Geometry and Improvement
The existing alignment predominantly passes through barren land and traverses through
patches of dense urban built up sections. Alignment comprises of 16 nos. of Vertical and 96
nos. sharp horizontal curves and blind spots. The deficient / substandard horizontal curves
will be improved by providing the required radius as per the codal provision for the design
speed of 80kmph / 100kmph. The curves are improved for maximum possible radius.
2.3.3 Deficient Cross Drainage Structures and Improvements
Some of the major rivers crossing the alignment are Lilri River, Khari River and Mansi River.
Lilri River is flowing from left to right and other two rivers are flowing from right to left in the
direction of increasing chainage.
Part of the project road from chainage km 0.000 to km 36.500, contribute the rainwater through
tributaries, flowing from right to left and finally joined in Lilri River. Lilri River is crossing the
project road at chainage 1.443 Km.
Similarly, Part of the project road from chainage 36.500 Km to 64.000 Km, country slope is
from right to left side of the project road considering increasing chainage. Only small streams
lie in-between, therefore, minor bridges and culverts are proposed in this section.
Similarly, last part of the project road from chainage 64.000 Km to 116.700 Km, country slope
is from right to left side of the project road considering increasing chainage. Two main rivers
namely Khari River at chainage 71.650 Km & Mansi River at chainage 92.554 Km crossing
alignment from right to left. Major bridges are proposed on these rivers. Other than these
locations minor bridges and culverts are proposed.
The project road is having one major bridge, one RoB, 14 minor bridges, 83 slab culverts, 143
pipe culverts, 3 box culverts and 1 causeway. Existing Causeway at Ch.1.479 gets overtopped
and obstructs the continuous traffic during rainy season. All minor bridges are having RCC
solid slab type superstructure, stone masonry wall type substructure and with open foundation.
The pipe culverts are generally in poor working condition, with pipe dia less than or equal to
0.6 m, however some of them are found in choked condition due to accumulation of waste /
garbage and siltation.

2.3.4 Safety of the Users
With improvement of existing single / intermediate lane to two lane / four lane with paved
shoulder standards, safety of the commuters will increase as this will improve the visibility and
additional carriageway space. Road user will also be facilitated with different project amenities,
slope protection measures, road markings and sign etc., which will improve the safety of
commuters along the project road.
The project stretches passes through Pali, Ajmer, Rajsamand and Bhilwara districts of
Rajasthan. Project road traverses through 23 nos. of Major Built-up / settlements. The
presence of these settlements obstructs the flow of traffic due to reduction in speed. The traffic
flowing through these sections also creates potential hazard to pedestrians. So, Realignments
and Bypasses are proposed are proposed in order to provide a safe and congestion free
passage to road users.
2.4 Proposed Structures
The project road is having one major bridge, one RoB, 14 minor bridges, 83 slab culverts, 143
pipe culverts, 3 box culverts and 1 causeway. Three new major bridges are proposed on
project road. Out of Sixteen minor bridges, five are proposed for repair and widening, four are
proposed for reconstruction and remaining seven are proposed as new structures. One of the
existing ROB is retained with repairs and one additional RoB is proposed over Beawar bypass.
Total 217 number of culverts are proposed including pipe and box culverts. New 5 pedestrian
subway has also been proposed. The summary of proposed structures on the project road is
presented in Table below.

2.4.1 Major and Minor Bridge
All existing minor bridges are having RCC solid slab type superstructure, stone masonry wall
type substructure and with open foundation. The pipe culverts are generally in poor working
condition, with pipe dia less than or equal to 0.6 m, however some of them are found in choked
condition due to accumulation of waste / garbage and siltation.
A detailed survey (visual inspection) of the existing structures has been carried out by the
concerned key professionals to assess and ascertain the existing condition / characteristics of
bridges and other structures.
3 major bridges are proposed on Lildi, Mansi and Khari River respectively. Details of proposed

CHAPTER - 3.: SOCIO – ECONOMIC PROFILE OF PROJECT
INFLUENCE AREA
3.1 Introduction
The following sections provide briefly the socio-economic profile of the state (Rajasthan), and
affected districts. The project influence area has been considered as the administrative
boundaries of the districts through which the project road traverses. These districts are Ajmer,
Pali, Rajasamand and Bhilwara. The Direct Impact Zone are the census villages and towns
which are likely to be impacted in terms of land acquisition, loss of assets, loss of livelihood
etc., due to the project implementation.
3.2 Overview of Rajasthan
Rajasthan is located in the north-western part of the country, between 69°30’E to 78°13’E
longitudes and 23°30’N to 30°12’N latitudes. In terms of area it is the largest state in India and
covers an area of about 3,42,239 sq. km, which accounts for 11 percent of the total area and
about five per cent of the population of the country. Presenting a rhomboid shape, the State
has a maximum length of 869 km from west to east and 826 km from north to south. The State
is bound on the west by Pakistan, in the north by Haryana and Punjab, in the east by Uttar
Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, and in the south by Gujarat (Figure 3.1).
The State has 33 administrative districts. More than three-fourth proportion of the total
population is residing in rural areas. An overview of the State is presented below in Table 3.1:

Figure 3-1: Key map of Rajasthan
The economy of the state is characterized by high incidence of poverty, low literacy rate,
unemployment and low per capita income. The share of agriculture has been declining even
then even then agriculture continues to play an integral part of the development process in the
state as 75% of the population still live in villages and continue to depend on agriculture and
allied activities as a prime source of their livelihood.
3.3 Project Influence Area (PIA)
The project influence area covers Ajmer, Pali, Rajsamand and Bhilwara districts. The area
with its sub-tropical climate has three very well-defined seasons - summers, winters and
monsoons. On the basis of climatic conditions and prevailing agricultural practices, Rajasthan
has been divided into ten agro-climatic zones, each one having special characteristics of its
own. Ajmer district forms part of the Semi-Arid Eastern Plain (IIIA) whereas Pali District and
Rajsamand Districts forms part of Flood Prone Eastern Plain (IIIB). The details of the districts
are presented in Table 3.2:

CHAPTER - 4.: REGULATORY FRAMEWORK AND ENTITLEMENT
MATRIX
4.1 Introduction
This chapter details out the legal and regulatory framework under the ambit of which the SIA
was undertaken and RAP has been prepared. It also reviews the national and state laws of
Rajasthan relevant to the scope of activities under the project, and, discusses the implications
for the project design and implementation.
4.2 Applicable National and State Policy Framework

CHAPTER - 5.: PUBLIC INFORMATION AND CONSULTATIONS
5.1 Introduction
Project affected people were informed about the proposed road development and potential
impacts during consultations. The involvement of the Public consultation has been carried out
in this Project with the objectives of minimizing probable adverse impacts of the project
through alternate design solutions (cross-sectional) and to achieve speedy implementation of
the project through bringing in awareness among the community on the benefits of the project.
5.2 Classification of Stakeholders
Stakeholder analysis typically classifies stakeholders or all those who have an interest in the
project, into three categories:
• Primary stakeholders are those who are directly or indirectly affected by a project, such
as the project beneficiaries and the people who are likely to be adversely affected by
a project.
• Secondary stakeholders are those who are involved in the delivery of the project
outputs, such as the government, the implementing agency, the executing agency
(e.g., contractors, consultants), if any and NGOs, etc.
• External stakeholders are those who are “outside�? the ambit of the project activities,
but who can influence the outcome of the project, such as the media, politicians,
religious leaders and other opinion leaders.
For this project, affected people, influential person, village Sarpanch and panchayat members,
members of the affected villages, local women were considered as Primary stakeholders.
5.3 Consultation Process
The process of stakeholder consultation included:
• Identification of the relevant stakeholders including all those individuals, groups and
organizations potentially affected by or interested in the project;
• Pre informing the stakeholders about the consultation dates and location;
•
• During the consultation process, imparting information about the project interventions and
its potential impacts;
• Recording of their concerns and aspirations through discussions;
• Responding to their queries in a neutral manner.
5.4 Stakeholder’s consultation
Public consultations meetings were conducted in project corridor villages at 34 locations as
part of the SIA & RAP. Majority of the stakeholders expressed their full support for the widening
and improvement of the proposed project road with suitable compensation. They agreed that
proposed project will have both positive and adverse impact on the community and assets,
especially those who are along the project road. But at the same time, they were aware that
road development will also improve the connectivity of the villages to the major district
headquarters. They anticipated construction activities will generate employment opportunities
for the local people. During public consultation, it was informed that proposed project will have
impacts on residential and commercial structures as well as religious and community
structures, along the road. Details of number and type of consultation conducted along the

5.6 Consultation with Women
Focus group discussions were conducted with women group to take their suggestions and
concerns related to the implementation of this project. It was noted during the discussions that
women in the study area consistently lagging behind in terms of access to education, health
care, jobs etc.
During consultation with women group, issues related to safety of their children, resettlement
of their residential as well as commercial structure, gender-based benefits and constraints of
the project, were discussed. As many households do not have tap water facility in the area,
so women and girls need to cross the road to fetch water as many a times the water resources
are on the other side of the road. Safety of children is also a concern considering the increase
in the number of vehicles due to better road connectivity. Cattle also cross the road and there
are issues related to their safety as well. They suggested avoiding demolition of the structure
because they have been settled there from a long time and proposed considering bypasses
to avoid any impact on the settlements.
During consultation it was also recorded that no one complained about any gender-based
violence issue.
In general, women welcomed the road project as it will help the villagers to easily avail the
medical facility near Beawer, Mandal and Bhilwara town. Mostly girls drop their education after
10th and 12th due to unavailability of the colleges near the village/town. With better connectivity,
the women group anticipated that more girls will avail better educational and health facilities.
The details of Focus Group Discussions/ consultations are given in Table 5-3.

Major recommendation and outcome
▪ They felt that proposed project is essential for the development of the area.
▪ Corridor from Sanwas village to Mandal is not well connected with the transport system
therefore community has to spend much time to go to Beawer and Mandal so that
proposed project will bring changes in their socio-economic profile.
▪ Some student especially girls drop their education after 10th and 12th due to far distance
from their residence. It’s not their culture for female to commute far alone from their
residence but denied the security issue with respect to female in the project corridor.
▪ Sometime community has to face difficulty during medical emergency due to road
connectivity. It becomes worse when someone has to use public transport in the
medical emergency. No govt. bus is available on this route therefore has to use private
bus but their frequency is less than usual.
▪ Civil societies asked to develop the infrastructural facilities in the area with respect to
health, education and water.
5.10 Consultation with Project Developer
During the study period, Social team consulted with EE PWD, Pali at his office and on
proposed project to understand about the project and other social features around the project
site
• They shall give direction to the contractor to engage the local people, panchayat,
Municipal Corporation and civil societies in the proposed project.
• They already consulted with the different stakeholders and shall be consulted in every
stage of the project.

5.11 Key Issues/concerns and suggestion
Though, the project road stretch passes through four different districts of Pali, Ajmar,
Rajsamand and Bhilwara, the settlement pattern as well as socio-economic profile across this
whole stretch of 116.750 Km has a lot of uniformity. Even the issues that have emerged as a
result of this consultative process are also quite common, with minor variations. The key
Issues raised during Consultations are as follows:
• Resettlement was the main issue of the affected, local and influential person of the
project corridor.
• Participants also suggested in detail in every meeting. General consensus was on
replacement value for any immovable property acquired. Participants also suggested
that compensation be paid in time with one single installment so that the amount can
be used in a fruitful manner.
• Safety of children, local people and animal was another concern. Participants were
informed that road safety provisions, extra wide road, footpath and drains should be
provided in the settlement areas.
• It was the major concern of the local people to develop the drainage system of the
area.
• Some location people asked to proposed bypass.
Thus, on the basis of above consultation/ group discussion with local community/ villagers/
village sarpanch/ village panchayat members/ influential person of the region/ government
officials and various stake holders, we may conclude that proposed project will prove
beneficial not only to local region but also up to state and national level for a long term.
There is a big support of local community in favor of the project.

CHAPTER - 6.: ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES
This Chapter details the various alternatives considered to decide on the feasibility of the
project and in design finalization. The analysis has been done at two levels, firstly, the
alternative analysis was done considering the “with and without project scenarios�? which
considered the potential social impacts, both positive and negative, of the sub-project.
Secondly, an analysis has also been made during finalization of bypasses and realignments
taking into consideration the requirement in meeting the design standards for smooth flow of
traffic and also social impact of the opted designs on assets and requirements of land along
the road, bypasses and realignments. Both the analysis is detailed in the below section:
6.1 Inputs at Different Stages for Minimizing Resettlement
Regarding resettlement and rehabilitation input, it may be mentioned here that from the very
beginning of the project formation, social and environmental team worked hand to hand with
engineering design group. These inputs in concrete terms were made available at the following
stages:
a) Stage 1: Potential resettlement and rehabilitation issues were identified at the
preliminary reconnaissance visit. Field Surveyors identified the villages and urban
areas with inadequate road width and design team was provided this input.
b) Stage 2: Right of way was ascertained from Rajasthan PWD and Revenue
Department and where in doubt, actual measurements were made and data on
land available for road widening and the land acquisition requirement was collected
and provided to the Design team. The socio-economic and census surveys of the
potentially project affected persons were initiated from the very beginning. A Social
Assessment was done of the 100% potentially affected population within the likely
corridor of impact (30 meters). The social assessment registered the household
members and individuals within the potential corridor of impact, enumerated the
sites and in fact gathered sufficient demographic and social information to
determine whether they were to be categorized as vulnerable groups with special
entitlements under the project as per Entitlement Matrix. Socio-economic survey
provided the base line against which mitigation measures and support has been
measured and survey included the needs and resources of different groups and
individuals including women headed households and gender analysis.
c) Stage 3: R & R team working in the field, weighed up the alternative alignment
options proposed by the Survey and Engineering team and this field information
were shared and discussed with engineering design team, so that they make such
a plan, which could avoid or minimize adverse impact on large number of
households. In response, the engineering team considered various options.
d) Stage 4: Local level consultation regarding the impact of widening of the road
through the villages and towns was conducted and alternative suggestions offered
by them were considered. Social and environmental inputs were provided at the
feasibility stage and recommendations were made according to the findings of the
social and environmental surveys.
e) Stage 5: Full coordination and cooperation between the resettlement and
Rehabilitation team and Engineering team results in:
a) Unnecessary displacement avoided by modifying the alignment
b) Fixing the speed in the built-up areas including schools and hospitals as per
local needs and problems of the people
c) Deciding the rural and urban road cross-sections based on field surveys and
likely impact on the people
d) Evolving Community consensus on shifting the existing shrines and religious
structures

6.2 With and Without Project Alternatives
6.2.1 Without Project Scenario
The existing project road section varies from single lane to two lanes with earthen shoulders
with varying pavement width. With present and projected high traffic volumes, the capacity of
the present highway is insufficient for handling the high volume of traffic and calls in for
improvements to a 2 lane and 4 lane carriageways with paved & Granular shoulder. The
project highway has many roadside settlements and the traffic flow is seriously impacted by
severe conflicts between the local and the through traffic. This is further compounded by the
various land use conflicts, in terms of uncontrolled development along the highway. The
population growth, increase in traffic volumes and the economic development along the
corridor would continue to occur and will worsen the already critical situation. Moreover, if it is
decided not to proceed with the project, then the attendant reduced socio-economic
development of this remote, relatively poor connected area cannot be justified. Therefore,
alternative action of not going ahead with the project is neither a reasonable nor a prudent
course of action, as it would amount to failure to initiate any further improvements and impede
economic development.
6.2.2 With Project Scenario
The ‘with project scenario’ is found to have a positive impact in the long run on social,
environmental, economic and financial issues. This scenario includes the widening to 2 / 4
lanes of the existing single / two lanes stretch as envisaged in the project objectives. The
scenario is economically viable and will improve the existing conditions. It, would thereby,
contribute to the development goals envisaged by the Governments of Rajasthan and India,
and enhance the growth potential of the area.
To avoid the acquisition of land and properties, the project envisages the development within
the minimum RoW as much as possible. However, need for land acquisition has been
envisaged for bypass, realignment and curve improvement sections.
In spite of the various development benefits likely to accrue due to the project, as is the case
of every road development project, the project would be accompanied by certain impacts on
the natural, social and environmental components. Wherever avoidance of negative impact
has not been possible, appropriate mitigation and enhancement actions will be worked out to
effectively offset the social damages inflicted due to the project. A detailed Resettlement
Action Plan (RAP) has been worked out to compensate the affected people for the loss of their
assets and also to improve the well-being and livelihood of the people to be impacted.
Comparative assessments of the “with and without�? project scenarios are presented in the
following Table.

By looking at the above table, “with�? project scenario, with its some adverse impacts is more
acceptable than the “without�? project scenario which would mean an aggravation of the
existing problems. The potential benefits of the proposed road improvements are substantial
and far-reaching both in terms of the geographical spread and time. Hence, it is clear that the
implementation of the project will have definite advantage to area in development of its
economy and progress for its people.

6.3 Analysis of Alternatives Alignment
After having examined the feasibility of the road-improvement in the existing alignment, it is
concluded that some of the project segment (mainly thickly built- up stretches) may have social
constrains during construction because these critical stretches are experiencing congestion,
encroachment of RoW and poor geometry. The major difficulties in following the existing
alignment option completely, is the magnitude of land acquisition & social disruption and
unsafe traffic condition. Therefore, realignment and bypasses have been suggested in the
built-up stretches. Alternatives for these bypasses and realignments have been considered
keeping in view social and technical parameters and based on the analysis of alternatives, the
best alternative has been finalized.
For the remaining stretch, the selection of the alignment along various sections has been
worked out based on continuous interaction between the highway, social and environmental
teams. Mostly concentric widening of the existing alignment has been considered to fully utilise
the available RoW. The project road shall be rigid and flexible pavement throughout the
stretch.
6.3.1 Criteria for Fixing bypasses and realignment
Obligatory sensitive reasons through which bypasses and realignment options should not
pass, are detailed in sections below.
Habitations: Proposed alignment has been fixed in such a way that it traverses at a minimum
distance of 200-300m from built up areas and avoiding important buildings and structures.
However, Bypasses and realignment options have been adopted to minimise the impact on
settlement due to project.
Moreover, the alternative options have been worked out keeping the following in mind:
• The project should be constructible and easy to maintain; the project should reduce
the vehicle operation cost with respect to the existing option already available
• The alignment should be finalized giving due consideration to siting/location of major
structures including Major / Minor Bridges and ROBs
• Alignment should follow the unused / barren land to the extent possible to reduce the
cost of land acquisition and carbon foot print.
6.3.2 Alternative Analysis of Bypasses and realignments
Bypasses have been proposed to avoid various built-up areas along the project
highway, where geometric improvements are not possible as per design standards.
Before declaring it as National Highway, the road comprised of SH-39 and MDR-84,
which had poor geometrics. Bypasses and realignments are inevitable at many places
to improve the geometrics and mitigating the risks of social impacts. The details of
alternative analysis furnished and given as an annexure 6.1.

7.9 Impact of Common Property Resources
Census survey reveals that 253 CPRs will be affected by the proposed project. Out of 253
CPRs 36.36% are religious structure followed by 33.73% of government structure and the
remaining 30.20% are community structure. It was noted during census survey that many
households have a small shrine in front of their house or in their fields for worshipping as per
their traditional beliefs. These shrines are called as “Dev Sthana�? in local language. About 69
such shrines (Dev Sthan) will be impacted due to road widening. Relocation of these shrines
were discussed with the affected households during survey. People agreed to relocate these
shrines if compensation is paid for their reconstruction.
In case of schools, mostly the boundary wall of the schools will be impacted and there would
not be much impact on the main building. The details of the affected CPRs are given in Table

7.11 Socio-Economic profile of the PAPs along the Project Road
The purpose of social impact assessment was to create a broad database of the affected
properties as well as the project-affected persons (PAPs) in order to understand the social
profile of the project-affected households. It helps to appraise the positive as well as negative
impact on the affected families due to the proposed project. The socio-economic details of the
affected households were collected during the survey, as explained in below sections.
7.12 Total Number of Project Affected Persons (PAPs along the project road)
Census and Socio-Economic survey has been carried out for all the affected households. Total
400 households are affected due to the proposed project. There are altogether 2508 persons
(family members of affected households). As given in below table, out of the 2508 PAPs,
53.91% are male and 46.09% are female. The socio-economic profile of the affected
households is analyzed and presented in the following sections.

7.15 Vulnerable Groups
Vulnerable families constitute that portion of the population which is denied the opportunity to
fully explore and utilize its abilities and thus enjoy a quality of life. These people are left behind
in today's advancing economy and need special attention and care thus BPL, women headed
household (WHH), schedule caste (SC), schedule tribes (ST) physical handicapped (Divyang)
are considered in vulnerable groups.
There are 117 vulnerable families will be affected which includes 45.30% of SC category
followed by 25.64% are Women Headed households, 22.22% of BPL and only 4.27% of ST
and 2.56% of divyang.The Entitlement matrix for this project has specific provisions for
vulnerable group and additional assistance will be provided to the households belonging to
vulnerable category. The details of the vulnerable category are given in Table 7-11.

The level of household income among the HHs within the RoW (Table7-14) illustrate that an
overwhelming majority, 38%, have an income level between Rs.60001 and Rs. 120000 a year
followed by 26.75% of HHs earning more than 120000 a year and 26.50% of HHs earning up
to 60000 a year. The proposed improvement will considerably reduce the travel time between
the locality and Ras, Beawar, Asind and Mandal. This will facilitate growth of more economic
activities, access to better economic prospect outside the area and hence increase the income
opportunities. Average annual household income of the affected population is given in Table

7.19 Conclusion
The census survey analysis of the project affected persons reveals their dependency on the
project corridor. This dependency is either in the form of place for residence or for livelihood
generation. Affected people shall be consulted at every stage of the project planning and
implementation. Their worries and suggestions shall be taken into account and the negative
impacts shall be mitigated.

CHAPTER - 8.: GENDER ANALYSIS
8.1 Introduction
Though the project study does not identify any particular direct adverse impacts to women
under the project, however the project during implementation and the operation phases would
identify any issues for being adopted to enhance the quality life of the women living along the
project corridor.
8.2 Women’s Participation in the Project
The gender composition of PAPs shows that the female and male ratio is having a huge
difference. The gender ratio is 851 female per 1000 male person.
The Gender Development Index (GDI) value for India is very low and the socio-economic
profile of the project area shows much lower socio-economic standing for women. They are
largely involved in domestic, agricultural work and have very low economic participation rate
(i.e. productive or gainful employment). In the project area, mostly women are housewives
and they might face hardship, stress and continue to suffer during the transition period of the
project. Often, the duration of this process is lengthened due to delays in payment of
compensation, rehabilitation assistance and implementation of the R&R., reconstructing and
placement of the livelihood systems. The longer the transition period, more are the sufferings
to the women.
8.3 Women Headed Household
Female-headed households are considered a vulnerable group as per these SIA. The
resettlement plan ensures that socio-economic conditions, needs and priorities of women in
the affected area are identified and the process of land acquisition and resettlement does not
disadvantage women. Focus groups discussions have been conducted with women along the
project areas to address their specific women’s issues. During disbursement of compensation
and provision of assistance, priority will be given to female-headed households.
However, thirty (30) households are women headed along the proposed project area. The
details of women headed households are given as an Annexure 8-1.

CHAPTER - 11.: GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL MECHANISM
The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) mandates formation of Grievance Redressal
Mechanism in order to resolve disputes in an effective manner and at the door steps of the
PAPs. Compensation and assistance as per eligibility is provided in the entitlement matrix of
the approved RPF. Grievance of PAPs will be brought to the grievance redress committee for
redressal. The decision of the GRC will be binding, unless vacated by court of law.
11.1 Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC)
The GRC will be constituted by the Project Authority with the aim to settle as many disputes
as possible on LA and R&R through consultations and negotiations. There will be one GRC
for each PIU. The GRC will comprise six members headed by a retired Revenue Officer/Social
Welfare Officer not below Group I officer rank. Other members of the GRC will include the
concerned Project Director-cum-Executive, a retired PWD Officer (not below the rank of
Executive Engineer), RRO, representative of PAPs and Sarpanch (Elected Head of Village)
of the concerned village.
Grievances of PAPs in writing will be brought to GRC for redressal by the RAP implementation
agency. The RAP implementation agency will provide all necessary help to PAPs in presenting
his/her case before the GRC. The GRC will respond to the grievance within 15 days. The GRC
will normally meet once in a month but may meet more frequently, if the situation so demands.
A time period of 45 days will be available for redressing the grievance of PAPs. The decision
of the GRC will not be binding to PAPs. The decision of the Grievance Committees will not
be binding on the DPs and they will have the option of taking recourse to court of law,
if he/she so desires at his or her own expense. Broad functions of GRC are as under:

to their grievances related to resettlement and rehabilitation assistance.
▪ The GRC may undertake site visit, ask for relevant information from Project
Authority and other government and non-government agencies, etc, in order to
resolve the grievances of PAPs. Fix a time frame within the stipulated time period
of 45 days for resolving the grievance.
▪ Inform PAPs through implementation agency about the status of their case and
their decision to PAPs and Project Authority for compliance.
▪ In case of grievances/complaints relating to GBV, ensure confidentiality and
appropriate referral to mapped service providers
The GRC will be constituted within 3 months by an executive order from competent authority
(centre/ state) from the date of mobilization of RAP implementation agency. The RRO will
persuade the matter with assistance from implementation agency in identifying the suitable
persons from the nearby area for the constitution of GRC. Secretarial assistance will be
provided by the PIU as and when required.

meetings and distributing leaflets containing salient features and procedures of GRM. The
RAP IA will assist the PAPs in getting their record of rights updated in case of disputes related
to land. The RRO with support from RAP IA will make all possible efforts for amicable
settlement. The RAP IA will document all cases brought to GRC and maintain the records of
the proceedings of the grievance redressal committee meetings.
11.2 Suggestion and Complaint Handling Mechanism (SCHM)
The MoRTH recognizes the importance of this and hence intends to establish a SCHM for the
GNHCP. The communication channels to report project related complaints/concerns will be
disclosed at all levels of institutions—MoRTH, State and Sub-project levels.

Though the Right to Information Act, 2005 an Act of the Parliament of India provides for setting
out the practical regime of right to information for citizens. The Act applies to all States and
Union Territories of India except the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Under the provisions of the
Act, any citizen may request information from a "public authority" (a body of Government or
"instrumentality of State") which is required to reply expeditiously or within thirty days. The Act
also requires every public authority to computerize their records for wide dissemination and to
proactively publish certain categories of information so that the citizens need minimum
recourse to request for information formally. In other words, under the act, citizens have right
to seek information from concerned agencies by following the set procedures. However, it is
quite likely that many people may not use the provisions of this Act, only in limited cases
covering serious concerns. Being an inter-state project involving several states and large scale
of civil works along with R&R and Environment issues, the project is likely to receive many
suggestions, complaints, inquiries, etc through the project implementation period. Therefore,
MoRTH has agreed to establish SCHM as a good practice to address public concerns
pertaining to various issues. SCHM will report all project related LA and R&R of the PAPs for
redressal through the concerned PIU or GRC as appropriate. Several communication
channels viz., toll free phone number, dedicated email, mechanism for on line submission of
suggestions/complaints/inquiries, provision of suggestion/complaint box (at site and project
office), post and other suitable means shall be set up for suggestion and complaint handling.
11.3 Training and Capacity Building – at Project and Sub-project Level
Training and development of project staff is an integral part of project implementation. A
training needs identification shall be carried out at Corporate, Regional and Site level, based
on which focused training modules will be developed in the first six months of project
implementation;
➢ Strengthening in house capacity to implement the provisions of RAP,
➢ Creating awareness, providing the tools for implementation of RAP, strategy and
accompanying set of management procedures to all departments,
➢ Developing competence of key officials to provide training at respective level.
Based on skill requirement/improvement at all levels for proper implementation of RAP, a
training programme focusing project implementing partners at Centre, State and field PIU has
been developed (Annexure-12) which will be implemented by the PMU, MoRTH in the next
two years. These training programs, which will be zeroed down after a quick training needs
assessment, are to be conducted with the help of local and national training institutions and
experts in various aspects of social management. MoRTH will also identify courses offered by
the premier institutions in India and abroad on social management and inter-phase with
identified programme. Provision for separate budget has been made for this activity. The
budget reported under “institutional�? head includes the cost estimates of training programs
discussed above.
11.4 Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) at Project and Sub-project Level
38. The Resettlement Action Plan will contain indicators and benchmarks for achievement
of the objectives under the resettlement programme. These indicators and benchmarks will
be of three kinds: i) Proposed indicators, indicating project inputs, expenditures, staff
deployment, etc. ii) Output indicators, indicating results in terms of numbers of affected
persons compensated and resettled, training held, credit disbursed, etc, iii) Impact indicators,
related to the longer-term effect of the project on people’s lives.

The benchmarks and indicators will be limited in number and combine quantitative and
qualitative types of data. Some of these indicators may include, percentage of PAPs actually
paid compensation before any loss of assets; percentage of PAPs whose incomes after
resettlement are better than, or at least same as before resettlement; percentage of assets
valued at replacement cost compensation; percentage grievances resolved; and/or
percentage of cases to court. The first two types of indicators, related to process and
immediate outputs and results, will be monitored to inform project management about
progress and results, and to adjust the work programme where necessary if delays or
problems arise. The results of this monitoring will be summarized in reports which will be
submitted to the World Bank on a regular basis. Provision will be made for participatory
monitoring involving the project affected persons and beneficiaries of the resettlement
programme in assessing results and impacts. The Project Authority will engage services of an
external agency (third party), which will undertake independent concurrent evaluations at least
twice a year during the project implementation period. At the end of the project, an impact
evaluation will be carried out as part of the project completion report. Such independent
evaluation will focus on assessing whether the overall objectives of the project have been met
and will use the defined impact indicators as a basis for evaluation. Specifically, the evaluation
will assess: (i) The level of success (including the constraints and barriers) in land acquisition
programme, resettlement plan, and income recovery of the PAPs after they have been
displaced from the project affected area, and, (ii) the types of complaints/ grievances and the
success of the handling of grievance and public complaints towards the construction of
project’s infra-structures, means of redress for assets and lands and the amount of
compensation, resettlement, and other forms of complaints.
Summarizing, M&E would be carried out for regular assessment of both process followed and
progress of the RAP implementation. The internal monitoring will be carried out by the State
PCU by the LA cum SDO with assistance from NGO/Consultancy firm and a quarterly report
will be submitted to MoRTH. Each quarterly report would also be uploaded on the MoRTH
website. The external agency (third party) however, would conduct assessment annually for
each sub-project by undertaking field visits and all other necessary activities including
consultations. The annual reports would cover detailed information on process and progress
of RAP implementation. The report would highlight issues, if any that need attention of the
Project Authority and suggest corrective measures that may be followed for better
implementation of RAP.

CHAPTER - 12.: IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
12.1 Coordination with civil works and certification
Implementation of RAP will include land acquisition, and resettlement and rehabilitation (R&R)
activities. The implementation process will cover (i) identification of cut-off date and
notification; (ii) verification of properties of PAPs and estimation of their type and level of losses
and distribution of identity cards; (iii) preparation of PAPs for relocation through consultation,
however, the process of consultation will continue throughout the RAP implementation and
(iv) relocation and resettlement of the PAPs.
Implementation schedule should be revised, post-finalization of entitlements, compensation
packages and the budget. This should depend on the magnitude of work to be undertaken as
part of RAP implementation. PAPs should be given sufficient notice period to vacate their
property before civil works begins. No civil works should begin until all PAPs receive the
approved compensation package. Civil works should therefore be linked with the completion
of land acquisition. In this case, all land transfers from Government have to be completed.
Depending on the ownership, PIU should coordinate the DC’s office and the Revenue
Department. A draft Implementation Schedule is given in Table 12.1, subject to change after
revalidation of RAP.
It is assumed that implementation will take minimum 36 months to hand over land for civil
works. Training for income restoration, if proposed, however shall continue for another month,
estimating a total period for RAP implementation

CHAPTER - 13.: MONITORING & EVALUATION (M & E)
Monitoring and evaluation are important activities of infrastructure development project
particularly, those involving involuntary resettlement. It helps making suitable changes, if
required during the course of implementation of RAP and also to resolve problems faced by
the PAPs. Monitoring is periodical checking of planned activities and provides midway inputs,
facilitates changes, if necessary and provides feedback to project authority for better
management of the project activities. Evaluation on the other hand assesses the resettlement
effectiveness, impact and sustainability of R&R activities. In other words, evaluation is an
activity aimed at assessing whether the activities have actually achieved their intended goals
and purposes. Thus monitoring and evaluation of resettlement action plan implementation are
critical in order to measure the project performance and fulfillment of project objectives.
The monitoring and evaluation of RAP implementation will ensure monitoring of key indicators
on inputs, outputs, project processes and evaluation of impact indicators. The overall purpose
of the monitoring is to keep track of the implementation processes and progress, achievement
of performance targets fixed in the annual work plans, learning lessons and taking corrective
actions to deal with emerging constraints and issues. Monitoring and evaluation will constitute
the following:
▪ Implementation progress (physical and financial aspects), monitoring of inputs, and
outputs;
▪ Process documentation (case studies and lessons learnt);
▪ Impact evaluation based on sample survey and consultations; and
▪ Thematic studies.
13.1 Institutional Arrangement for M & E
The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) stipulates hiring services of an external agency
(third party) for monitoring and evaluation of RAP implementation. This means the project
authority through an external agency will carry out monitoring and evaluation from the
subsequent month of the mobilization of RAP IA at project site. Internal monitoring will be
carried out by the Social Officer of Project Coordination Unit (PCU) with assistance from R&R
officer and RAP IA whereas external monitoring and evaluation will be carried by the third
party engaged for the purpose. This will help monitor project activities closely. Regular
monitoring by undertaking site visits and consultations with PAPs will help identify potential
difficulties and problems faced in the implementation and accordingly help take timely
corrective measures including deviations, if needed.
Components of monitoring will include performance monitoring i.e., physical progress of the
work and impact monitoring and external evaluation. Indicative indicators to be monitored
related to performance are provided in the following sections. In case during the project
implementation, if some other indicators are found relevant they will also be considered for
monitoring.
13.2 Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) at Project and Sub-project Level
The Resettlement Action Plan contains indicators and benchmarks for achievement of the
objectives under the resettlement programme. These indicators and benchmarks will be of
three kinds:
1) Proposed indicators, indicating project inputs, expenditures, staff deployment, etc.
2) Output indicators, indicating results in terms of numbers of affected People
compensated and resettled, training held, credit disbursed, etc,
Feedback Infra Pvt. Ltd 94 Public Works Department, Rajasthan
Feasibility Report cum Preliminary Design for Up-gradation of Ras – SIA & RAP
Beawar – Asind – Mandal Section of NH-158 in the State of Rajasthan
3) Impact indicators, related to the longer-term effect of the project on People’s lives.
The benchmarks and indicators will be limited in number, and combine quantitative and
qualitative types of data. Some of these indicators may include, percentage of PAPs actually
paid compensation before any loss of assets; percentage of PAPs whose incomes after
resettlement are better than, or at least same as before resettlement; percentage of assets
valued at replacement cost compensation; percentage grievances resolved; and/or
percentage of cases to court. The first two types of indicators, related to process and
immediate outputs and results, will be monitored to inform project management about
progress and results, and to adjust the work programme where necessary if delays or
problems arise. The results of this monitoring will be summarized in reports which will be
submitted to the World Bank on a regular basis. Provision will be made for participatory
monitoring involving the project affected people and beneficiaries of the resettlement
programme in assessing results and impacts. The Project Authority will engage services of an
external agency (third party), which will undertake independent concurrent evaluations at least
twice a year during the project implementation period. At the end of the project an impact
evaluation will be carried out as part of the project completion report. Such independent
evaluation will focus on assessing whether the overall objectives of the project are being met
and will use the defined impact indicators as a basis for evaluation. Specifically, the evaluation
will assess: (i) The level of success (including the constraints and barriers) in land acquisition
programme, resettlement plan, and income recovery of the PAPs after they have been
displaced from the project affected area, and, (ii) the types of complaints/ grievances and the
success of the handling of grievance and public complaints towards the construction of
project’s infra-structures, means of redress for assets and lands and the amount of
compensation, resettlement, and other forms of complaints.
Summarizing, M&E would be carried out for regular assessment of both the process followed
and progress of the RAP implementation. The internal monitoring will be carried out by the
State PCU by the Land Acquisition cum Social Development Officer with assistance from RAP
Implementation Support Agency and a quarterly report will be submitted to MoRTH. Each
quarterly report would also be uploaded on the MoRTH website. The external agency (third
party) however, would conduct assessment six monthly for each sub-project by undertaking
field visits and all other necessary activities including consultations. The six monthly reports
would cover detailed information on process and progress of RAP implementation. The report
would highlight issues, if any that need attention of the Project Authority and suggest corrective
measures that may be followed for better implementation of RAP.
13.3 Process & Performance Monitoring
Process monitoring would enable the project authority to assess whether the due process are
being followed or not, whereas performance monitoring would mainly relate to achievement in
measurable terms against the set targets. Monitoring report will also provide necessary
guidance and inputs for any changes, if required during the course of the implementation. A
list of indicators is given in Table 13.1.

13.4 Evaluation
The external agency engaged by the Project Authority shall carry out the evaluation at two
stages viz., mid-term and after the completion of RAP implementation. The evaluation will be
carried out under a set term of reference. The evaluation study would involve both quantitative
and qualitative surveys and compare results before and after the implementation of the project.
It will focus on assessing whether the overall objectives of the project are being met and will
use the defined impact indicators as a basis for evaluation. The evaluation study would
undertake the following but not limited to:
▪ Review monthly progress report submitted by RAP Implementation Agency (RAP IA);
▪ Undertake consultations with PAPs in order to assess their point of view with regard to
overall process;
▪ Intensity and effectiveness of information dissemination with regard to RAP
implementation covering eligibility of different categories of PAPs, frequency of
interactions by RAP IA personnel with PAPs, deployment of RAP IA staff, quality of
rapport maintained by RAP IA personnel with PAPs, capability of RAP IA personnel,
behavior of RAP IA staff, availability of RAP IA staff, level of satisfaction as regards
the work of RAP IA, etc;
▪ Collect information about distribution of awareness generation materials, entitlements,
distribution of identity cum entitlement card, adequacy of dissemination of information,
consultations meetings with regard to policy and eligibility for entitlement, alternatives
and relocation related issues, measurement and valuation of affected properties,
understanding and use of grievance procedure, disbursement of assistance, and other
R&R related issues, compliance of resettlement policy, etc;
▪ Conduct sample survey (25% of PAPs) for making comparative analysis substantiated
by qualitative surveys and case studies, etc.
It may be noted that one of the key objectives of the project is improvement or at least
restoration of economic status of the PAPs to the pre project level. An illustrative list of
indicators is given in Table 13.2, which would be measured against the baseline data collected
for the preparation of RAP. The M&E agency would finally select the indicators for the
evaluation of the project depending upon the progress of R&R activities.
