The development of a new Capital City – critical for administration, economic development, and cultural integration – is a priority for the residuary state of Andhra Pradesh. The State Cabinet meeting of September 1, 2014 passed a resolution ‗to locate the Capital City in a central place of the state, around Vijayawada, and to go for decentralized development of the state with 3 Mega Cities and 14 Smart Cities‘. The State Government identified the Capital City area between Vijayawada and Guntur cities on the Southern bank of River Krishna, upstream of the Prakasam Barrage. The Amaravati Capital City has an area of 217.23 sq.km and is spread across 25 villages in 3 mandals (Thulluru, Mangalagiri and Tadepalli) of Guntur district. The 25 villages in the Capital City area have about a population of about 100,000 people. The nearest cities are Vijayawada at a distance of 30 km and Guntur at a distance of 18 km. The nearest railway station is KC Canal railway station near Tadepalli and the nearest airport is Gannavaram which is at a distance of 22 km. Amaravati is envisioned to be a ‗People‘s Capital‘ built around sustainability and livability principles. It aims to be at par with global standards and has developed a Master Plan with the assistance of the Government of Singapore. The new capital will be a center of economic activity, will create a range of jobs and will provide affordable and quality housing. Sustainability, efficient management and optimum utilization of resources will form an important pillar of this new capital. The Project Development Objective of the World Bank supported Amaravati Sustainable Capital City Development Project (ASCCDP) is to provide select urban infrastructure in designated locations of Amaravati Capital City, and to support the initial development of its institutional and governance structure. The ASCCDP has five main components, as follows: (i) Basic Urban and Pro-poor Infrastructure Component, which will support the implementation of priority transport corridors and integration of 25 villages into the Amaravati Capital City development, by financing the construction of a priority road network and the upgrading of infrastructure in selected villages (e.g. water supply, sewage, village roads, and drainage); (ii) Green Climate Resilient Infrastructure, which will help build sustainability and climate resiliencein Amaravati Capital City by supporting its integration with the natural surroundings, riverfront, and greenery; (iii) Citizen Benefit Sharing component, which will support government‘s efforts to implement benefit sharing measures for the residents of the capital city area, including but not limited to, training programs for farmers, landless families and other stakeholders, skill building programs, which will allow capital city residents to access jobs and new economic opportunities emerging in an urban context; (iv) Institutional and Fiscal Development, which will support government efforts to develop local government institutions and governance systems; and, (v) Project Management and Implementation Support. A Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) was prepared todescribe the principles, objectives and processes for preparation of specific resettlement plans that will be applicable to interventions financed by the World Bank project, once they are identified during project 4 preparation/implementation1. The RPF describes the principles and approach in avoiding, minimizing and mitigating adverse social impacts that may arise in implementation of proposed interventions financed by the World Bank. The RPF also provides process for consultations, impact assessment, census and socio-economic surveys, as well as for the preparation and implementation of mitigation plans. TheRPFwas prepared in line with the provisions of National laws, State laws and the World Bank‘s Involuntary Resettlement Policy (OP 4.12). The RPF was consulted and disclosed. It can be accessed at: https://crda.ap.gov.in/apcrdacommuni/media/asccdp/26092017/2%20RPF%20Draft%20Final%20Septe mber%202017.pdf This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) has been prepared, consistent with the guidelines included in the RPF, to cover potential impacts and mitigation measures associated with the construction of a grid of 10 priority roads, with total length 90 km, which will be constructed in the Capital City area. These roads will facilitate connectivity within the new capital city, as well as connectivity to the wider region, as part of planned network of roads under the Amaravati Master Plan. The land required for the construction of the 10 roads covered under this RAP will beassembled using a combination of land management mechanisms, including: (i) Land Pooling Scheme, whereby landowners surrender their land in return for a smaller plot of urban, serviced land (returnable plot) in the Capital City area that is of higher value than the land relinquished, along with a range of livelihood support measures including inter aliaan annuity, skill upgrading and support for setting up self-employed enterprises; (ii) Negotiated settlements2, applicable only for land and assets within existing villages, whereby the Government and landowners agree on the terms of a compensation package finalized in accordance with Section 124 of APCRDA Act 2014 that is consistent with the provisions of the 2013 Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act (LARR Act, 2013): The compensation involves, among other things, a land-for-land rather than in cash and relocation assistance; and, if neither of these first two mechanisms is successful, (iii) Land Acquisition via the 2013 LARR Act, by which compensation for land acquired (replacement value and livelihood support) is provided as per the requirements of the Land Acquisition Act.All such land acquisition mechanisms, to the extent they are applied to land within the project, will be subject to the application of OP 4.12. The land assembly requirements for the 10 priority roads, as well as the numbers of land-owning Project Affected Families(PAFs) by the construction of these roads are summarized in the following table. Number of land- Area required for 10 owning families affected priority roads financed by 10 priority roads by WB financed by WB (acres) LPS 1,757 1,002.6 2013 LARR Act 71 27.7 Negotiated Settlements 176 17.4 Government land* 38 53.8 Total 2,042 1,101.5 1 All interventions to be financed under the World Bank project have not been identified by project appraisal, and thus the overall impacts on land requirements and potential involuntary resettlement cannot be determined upfront. 2 G.O.Ms.No.153, Dt.19-04-2017 5 Number of landless families impacted by land assembly processes: 21,374 (*) Occupants of Government land are assisted as per the Negotiated Settlement policy. Some of people were also depending on Government lands for agricultural purposes and those were provided returnable plots as per LPS provisions. Acquisition procedures may still opt to join LPS. While this will not affect the total number of families affected, it may affect the breakdown of affected people by land assembly mechanisms. Although OP 4.12 applies only to the footprint of the World Bank financed project, it is challenging to differentiate between landless laborers affected by land assembly within and outside the World Bank project boundaries. Therefore, APCRDA has agreed that all landless families registered with APCRDA for pension by July 15, 2018 are considered World Bank project affected people for the purposes of provision of livelihood restoration measures. The payment of pension and other livelihood-related benefitswill be monitored for the list of registered landless families, as per the RPF. As of July 15, 2018, the total of number of landless households is 21,374. This RAP focuses on potential involuntary resettlement impacts on land owners in the Capital City area related to the Bank-financed 10 priority roads, and it includes provisions outlined in the RPF for all registered landless families (by July 15, 2018), which will be monitored under the ASCCDP. Socio-economic surveys were carried out among those 1,030 families available. (Remaining 1,012 are absentee land owners). The number of sample families covered in the survey is 281 (27%). Among LPS families it is 24% and among non LPS families the sample size is 36%. During the preparation of this Resettlement Action Plan first public consultation was held during January 2017 to seek suggestions on the initial draft safeguards documents (e.gResettlement Policy Framework, Environmental and Social Management Framework). Another set of public consultations were held during August 2017 at four villages (Thulluru, Anantavaram, Venkatapalem and Neerukonda),during which opinions were sought on the Resettlement Policy Framework, Environmental and Social Management Framework, Environmental Impact Assessment – Environmental Management Plan and Resettlement Action Plan for 10 priority roads. In addition to these consultations, APCRDA conducted 22 Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) in 10 villages, including four FGDs exclusively with women, eight with PDFs and LA affected families, two with PDFs on Government lands, one with SC/ST community and three with marginal farmers. Roughly300 people attended these meetings. The RAP also contains the institutional and implementation arrangements including roles and responsibilities of various key officers, bringing in dedicated Land Acquisition and Social Development officers to manage and coordinate with District Administration. District Administration will manage the land acquisition and resettlement.The payment of differential amount arising out of RPF provisions will be paid by APCRDA through a separate account. The RAP implementation will be monitored through a monitoringagency through a set of indicators. The RAP also includes details ofGrievance Redressal Mechanism (GRM) that is available to project affected families, citizen committee, process for consultations during implementation, support to livelihood measures and support to vulnerable groups, coordination with civil works, certification of payment of compensation and R&R assistance, budget, time table and monitoring and evaluation arrangement. This RAP is prepared based on the result of socio- economic surveys, outcomes of consultations and feedback on draft report, findings of independent evaluation of Land Pooling Scheme and RAP implementation audit. 6 7 I. INTRODUCTION Overview of Amaravati Capital City 1.1 The Andhra Pradesh Reorganization Act 2014, which came into effect on June 2, 2014, provided for the reorganization of the existing state of Andhra Pradesh (AP). The formation of a new Capital City – critical for its administration, economic development, and cultural integration – is a priority for the successor state of Andhra Pradesh. The State Cabinet meeting in early September 2014 passed a resolution ‗to locate the Capital City in a central place of the state, around Vijayawada, and to go for decentralized development of the state with 3 Mega Cities and 14 Smart Cities. The State Government identified the Capital City area between Vijayawada and Guntur cities on the Southern bank of River Krishna upstream of Prakasam Barrage. 1.2 The Amaravati Capital City has an area of 217.23 sq.km and is spread across 25 villages in 3 mandals (Thulluru, Mangalagiri and Tadepalli) of Guntur district. The 25 villages in the Capital City area have a population of about 100,000 people. The nearest cities are Vijayawada at a distance of 30 km and Guntur at a distance of 18 km. The nearest railway station is KC Canal railway station near Tadepalli and the nearest airport is Gannavaram which is at a distance of 22 km. Amaravati is envisioned to be a ‗People‘s Capital‘ built around sustainability and livability principles. It aims to be at par with global standards and has developed a Master Plan with the assistance of the Government of Singapore. The new Capital City will be a centre of economic activity, will create a range of jobs and will provide affordable and quality housing. Sustainability, efficient management and optimum utilization of resources will form an important pillar of this new capital. Amaravati Sustainable Capital City Development Project (ASCCDP) 1.3 Objective: The project development objectives of the World Bank financed Amaravati Sustainable Capital City Development Project (ASCCDP) are to provide select urban infrastructure in designated locations of Amaravati Capital City, and to support the initial development of its institutional and governance structure. 1.4 Components: The ASCCDPhas five main components, as follows: (i) Basic Urban and Pro-poor Infrastructure Component, which will support the implementation of priority transport corridors and integration of 25 villages into the Amaravati Capital City development, by financing the construction of a priority road network and the upgrading of infrastructure in selected villages (e.g. water supply, sewage, village roads, and drainage); (ii) Green Climate Resilient Infrastructure, which will help build sustainability and climate resilience in Amaravati Capital City by supporting its integration with the natural surroundings, riverfront, and greenery; (iii) Citizen Benefit Sharing component, which will support government‘s efforts to implement benefit sharing measures for the residents of the capital city area, including but not limited to, training programs for farmers, landless families and other stakeholders, skill building programs, which will allow capital city residents to access jobs and new economic opportunities emerging in an urban context; (iv) Institutional and Fiscal Development, which will support government efforts to develop local government institutions and governance systems; and, (v) Project Management and Implementation Support. 1.5 This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) was prepared in accordance to the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) developed for the the ASCCDP. The RPF describes the principles and approaches in avoiding, minimizing and mitigating adverse social impacts that may arise in 8 implementation of proposed interventions financed by the World Bank.The RPF can be accessed at: https://crda.ap.gov.in/apcrdacommuni/media/asccdp/18072017/ASCCDP_RPF.pdf. 1.6 To construct Amaravati Capital City according to its Master Plan, the Government of AP needed to acquire and assemble 217 km2 of land. Land acquisition is governed by a legal framework consisting of the2013 Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act(LARR Act 2013), the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Agency (APCRDA) Act of 2014, and the Andhra Pradesh Amendment Act of April 2018 (Act 22/2018) and Andhra Pradesh Capital City Land Pooling Scheme (Formulation & Implementation) Rules 2015. Three land assembly mechanisms are being used to assemble the land needed for the development of the Capital City, and more specifically for these ten priority roads, are as follows: (i) Land Pooling Scheme(LPS) -innovative scheme whereby landowners voluntarily contribute their agricultural land (outside of habitations) in return for a smaller plot of urban, serviced land (returnable plot). The value of the returnable plot is expected to be higher than that of the land surrendered and to continue to increase further in value as development of the Capital City progresses. In addition to the returnable plots, LPS participants also receive a package of benefits described in more detail in Annexure 1. (ii) Negotiated Settlements (NS) –Land assembly mechanism applicable only for land and assets located within the village planning boundary. Government and landowners agree on a compensation packagefinalized in accordance with Section 124 of APCRDA Act 2014 that is consistent with the provisions of the 2013 LARR Act,in which the compensation involves a land-for-landexchange rather than a cash compensation. The exchanged land is located within the Capital City area, and the exact location is negotiable. The compensation also includes a cash component, intended to cover costs of construction of replacement housing, and a rental allowance for relocation pending construction of replacement housing. Though called ―Negotiated Settlement‖, the negotiation is over the terms of a compensation package that has been prepared in accordance with Section 124 of APCRDA Act 2014 and consistent with the Land Acquisition Act (Refer to Annexure 3 for details). (iii) Land Acquisition through 2013 LARR Act, by which compensation for lands acquired (replacement value and livelihood support) is provided following the requirements of the LARR Act 2013 (Referto Annexure 2 for details). 1.7 Landless agricultural laborers – Landless laborers working in the Capital City area lost their primary source of income as land was assembled for the development of Amaravati. As such, landless agricultural laborers have been directly impacted by the Capital City development project, as land was transferred to APCRDA. A key consideration concerning landless laborers is therefore the extent to which alternative sources of income are available locally to replace the loss of income from agricultural jobs. 1.8 Although OP 4.12 applies only to the footprint of the World Bank financed project, it is challenging to differentiate between landless laborers affected by land assembly within and outside the World Bank project boundaries. Therefore, APCRDA has agreed that for purposes of the RPF and of this RAP, all landless families registered with APCRDA for pension by July 15, 2018 will be considered project affected people for the purposes of provision of livelihood restoration measures. The payment of pension and other livelihood-related benefits will be monitored for the list of registered landless families as per the RPF. As of July 15, 2018, the total of number of landless households is 21,374. 9 1.9 The World Bank‘s policy on involuntary resettlement states as an objective that ―displaced persons should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher.‖ In line with this objective, measures in addition to those already in place by APCRDA and covering all landless laborers are included in the RPF and reproduced in this RAP, to identify and to address, specifically, the needs of the most vulnerable subset of landless households, who need extra support to return to their levels prior to the announcement of the Capital City. The following typologies of landless households are recognized as those at the highest risk: (i) families with women head of household; (ii) households where family members have physical disabilities; (iii) families with chronic diseases; (iv) households with aging family member who cannot longer work (over 60 years old); (v) families with no alternative sources of income other than APCRDA pension; and (vi) families of Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes whose sole source of income is APCRDA pensions. The methodology to identify vulnerable landless laborers and to monitor the engagement with landless laborers is described in Annexure 12. 1.10 The applicable entitlement framework for compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation (R&R) assistance, as available in the RPF, is provided as Annexures 1, 2, 3, and 12 for LPS, LA, Negotiated Settlement Policyand for the landless laborers, respectively.The scope of this RAPis limited to impacts associated with 10 sub-arterial roads implemented as part of Component 1 of the ASCCDP. 10 Sub-Arterial Roads 1.11 Ten sub-arterial roads were selectedon a priority basis by the Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP), through APCRDA, to promote connectivity within the Capital City area. These ten roads were further selected to facilitate access to the maximum number of existing villages within the perimeter of the Capital City. Design details of the ten sub-arterial roads are presented in Table 1 and amap depicting these roads is presented inFigure 1. Table 1: Proposed details of 10 priority roads S.

Construction of the roads started in 2017. The World Bank agreed to consider retroactive financingof the 10-road construction after approval of the project, provided the procurement and implementation of the contracts were fully consistent with all World Bank environmental, social and fiduciary policies. Details of contracts for the construction of the 10 priority roads are included in Table 2.

Land details (e.g. survey number, affected extent, location) were extracted from the Capital City Master GIS data after overlaying the final alignment of 10 roads as per the notified Master Plan. ii. Care was taken to ensure that the alignment is causing least adverse impacts leading to minimizing Project Affected Families (PAFs). iii. Prepared a format for collecting details ofPAFsrelated to LPS, Land Acquisition, Negotiated Settlement Policy, or occupants of Government-owned lands. iv. Survey was carried out among PAFs 11 v. Surveyed data wasverified for consistency. The data arerandomly verified with the already available household survey data, socio-economic survey data and found to be in order. vi. Assessment of impacts was carried out. vii. Institutional and implementation arrangements addressing project implementation, coordination with civil works contractors and district administration, grievance redressal, implementation of benefits and entitlements for PAFs were outlined in line with RPF provisions. viii. In-process audit5 was commissioned on implementation of the RAP and the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the roads. The EMP has been disclosed and can be accessed in APCRDA‘s website. The findings and recommendations of the audit are provided in Annexure 11ofthis RAP. Fig. 1: Map of the capital city showing the 10 priority roads (Map in GeoPDF format is available in ASCCDP link of crda.ap.gov.in) Impacts of 10 roads 1.14 The 10 priority roads will have overall positive social impacts owing to benefits accruing due to a world class road network, which will result in increased accessibility to employment opportunities, better access to markets, health centres, schools, and reduced travel time for area residents due to high quality roads. 1.15 Project Affected Families: Care was taken to ensure least adverse impacts, and to minimize physical displacement of area residents and land 5Sinceconstruction of the roads started before approval of the RAP and EMP, an in-process audit was done to ensure that construction was carried out in a manner consistent with environmental and social World Bank policies. 12 owners, as per OP 4.12. However, the construction of the 10 roads involves substantial land assembly and other associated impacts such as loss of houses, common property resources such as places of worship, drinking water sources, burial / cremation areas, etc. Based on the records and field survey, it was found that 1,101.53 acres of land is required to construct the 10 roads, and that road construction wouldimpact 2,042 families. Details are summarised in Table 3, below.

These landsamount to a total area of 0.74 acres. The compensation would be deposited in LARR Authority keeping it open to settle any future claim. . 1.19 Common property resources: Eleven (11) common property resources (6 temples, 3 burial grounds and 2 abandoned tanks), will also be affected. All affected common property resources will be reconstructed/ alternative arrangements will be provided for in consultation with stakeholders. Implementation of 10 priority roads 1.20 Land assembly for the Capital City, including within the 10 priority roads footprint, started in early 2015 and as of July 2018, it has substantially advanced. The construction of the 10 priority roads started in mid-2017 and is well underway. Only those lands where LPS certificates were issued were handed over to contractors and the remaining lands will be handed over to contractors once the returnable certificates are issued to the land owners or acquired under LA / Negotiated Settlement Policy. Table 5 summarizes the status of land assembly and works within the project area, as of July 2018.

Additionally:  The list of families affected by 10 priority roads (in agriculture of village lands) and compensated under Land Acquisition or under Negotiated Settlement Policy is included in Annexure 7.  The list of landowners being compensated under LPS category is published at: https://crda.ap.gov.in/apcrda/userinterface/admin/pafdata.aspx 2.5 Impact of isolated structures (not located in village areas): Among 1,757landowners who have joined the LPS within the project foot-print, there are no land owners who have lost isolated structures. 2.6 Minimization of land requirements:The extent of the land procurement requirement was kept in mind while finalizing the various options for implementation. Based on the initial alignment,consultations were held during finalization of the Master Plan. Based on feedback / objections / suggestions, modifications were carried out to minimize disturbance / displacement to existing settlements as much as possible. At the Master Plan level,the displacement ofapproximately3,600 structures due to the construction ofall roads wasavoided7.All these efforts put together have resulted in confining the total project area to 1,101.53 acres. 7SinceMaster plan consultations were held prior to World Bank involvement, the break-up of avoided displacements for the proposed project foot-print is not available. 16 Social Impact Assessmentsunder LARR Act 2.7 Social Impact Assessments (SIAs) were carried out, as per the provisions of the LARR Act, in the villages affected by the 10 roads, including:Ananthavaram, Nelapadu, Thulluru, Velagapudi, Nekkallu, Sakhamuru, Malkapuram, Mandadam, Venkatapalem, Krishnayapalem, Inavolu,Kuragallu, Nowluru, Penumaka, Nidamarru, Kondamarajupalem, Rayapudi, Lingayapalem, Borupalem, Abbarajupalem, Pichukulapalem during 2016 - 2018. In all these villages, SIA reports, Social Impact Management Plan (SIMP) reports, expert committee reports and decision of the appropriate government have beencompleted, after following the statutory LARR process, including public consultations. These reports are placed in Land Acquisition section at Guntur District Collectorate and in the website of: http://guntur.nic.in/notf.html 2.8 These reports extensively cover details such as summary of the SIA, SIMP report, whether the project serves public purpose, whether the potential benefits outweigh project cost and adverse social impacts, whether the extent of land proposed to be acquired is the absolute bare minimum needed for the project, whether there are other less displacing options available. Overall, participation in surveys and public hearings held as part of SIA is low since most of the affected families have joined the LPS and those who are covered under LARR and NS, typically do not participate in these consultations. The SIA was carried out as part of land acquisition process by the District Administration for overall capital city development project and the reports were vetted by the Expert Committee.The expert committee is constituted under Section 7 of the LARR Act 2013 by the District Collector, Guntur and consisted of eminent professionals in relevant fields. The village wise SIA reports can be accessed at the following website: http://guntur.nic.in/notf.html. 2.9 Feedback from SIA process:The main feedback resulting from SIA, has been summarized in a number of main categories, including: (i) Unit level grievances redressal meeting needs to be conducted once a week; (ii) Demand for payment of prevailing market price for the land to be acquired; (iii) Discrepancy over the fixation of returnable lands in dry lands for Jareebu ; (iv) Variations between measurements in documents and actual lands; (v) demarcation of extended habitation issues(vi) The allotted plots are far away from the existing village; (vii) Annuity payment issues; (viii) Eroded land to be ascertained; (ix) Skill development centre to be started at the earliest and to give priority in jobs in Capital region; (x) Sewage diversion to ponds to be addressed; and (xi) Education and health facilities to be extended to the villagers. 2.10 The key recommendations from the Expert Committee, in response to the SIA comments, are as follows:  PAFs are to be compensated as per the LARR Act 2013.  Enhancement of pension benefits  Food security measures to be taken up by Government.  Government to take steps for giving skill development and other measures to be taken up for creating livelihood opportunities.  Priority to be given to PAFs in state and central schemes implemented by the line departments. 2.11 Any person dissatisfied with the market value fixed by Land Acquisition Officer, may make an application for Negotiations before the Negotiation Committee headed by District Collector. Based on its merits, the Committee may propose a consent value for which the interested person mayagree8. Any Awardee / interested party, dissatisfied with the award made and having claim on compensation /R&R Entitlement may approach LA R&R Authority 8 vide G.O.Rt.No. 492, Revenue (LA) Department dated: April 25,2016 17 and make a reference under section 64 of LARR Act 2013. R&R claims shall be made to Land Acquisition Officer and on enquiring R&R Award would be passed.. In case of any dispute, or if owner does not come forward to receive the compensation, total amount will be deposited in escrow (as per provisions of RPF), with LARR Authority prior to taking possession of land. 2.12 Dependants of lands under Land Acquisition are identified through a Socio-economic Survey (as per LAR&R Act 2013). Livelihood benefits are available under LARR Act. Magnitude of Physical Displacement (within village boundaries) 2.13 The 10 priority roads involved 17.36 acres of private land in village areas. This corresponds to 214 Physically Displaced Families in 7 villages. This includes 174 families on private lands, 38 families residing in government lands within village areas and 2 tenant families– i.e. a total of 214 PDFs, as per Table 8, below. The total population likely to be displaced is about 734 people, based on average family size of 3.439. Impacts to houses, shops, buildings and other structural units will be considered as full, and whole units will be acquired (i.e. partial acquisition of units will be avoided). All impacted households within village boundaries will be entitled to compensation for land and structures, as well as resettlement assistance, as per NS policy and entitlement matrix (Annexure 3).

Sites for allotment of resettlement plots have beenidentified nearby to the villages where PAFs reside, and resettlement layouts are under development.Resettlement sites are equipped with /have access to roads, power connections, drinking water, drainages, etc. 2.15 Roughly 124 out of 214 physically displaced families have agreed to move to these resettlement sites.Soon after the consent for Negotiated Settlement wasreceived, resettlement plots were allocated though a lottery process. 79 families have been provided plots as of July 2018. The base resettlement assistance amounts are paid and the difference to updated unit costs will be paid immediately after approval of Project. A summary of current progress of Resettlement Colonies including allotment of plots to the consented PDFs is provided at Annexure 10. 9Based on sample household survey 18 Post resettlement support 2.16 Resettlement areas are identified within the same village, and displaced families are expected to move less than 1-2 km. Post resettlement support includes but is not limited to assisting people to access to basic facilities, transfer of ration cards and other documents, assistance in admission to schools, awareness on health and hygiene, management of common amenities, and any other assistance that the people may be required once they shift to new houses. An NGO will be recruited by APCRDA by August 15, 2018, to provide post resettlement support.Resettlement support may be required for a period of one year, actively, beyond which the support will be provided on a demand basis. The costs for resettlement support for the first year are included in RAP budgets and beyond this period, it will be provided with GoAP / APCRDA funds. Landless Agricultural Laborers 2.17 Landless laborers working in the capital city area lost their primary source of income as land was assembled for the development of Amaravati. As such, landless agricultural laborers have been directly impacted by the capital city development project, as land was transferred to APCRDA. A key consideration concerning landless laborers is therefore the extent to which alternative sources of income are available locally to replace the loss of income from agricultural jobs. 2.18 Although OP 4.12 applies only to the footprint of the World Bank financed project, it is challenging to differentiate between landless laborers affected by land assembly within and outside the World Bank project boundaries. Therefore, APCRDA has agreed thatfor purposes of this project, all landless families registered with APCRDA for pension by July 15, 2018 will be considered project affected people for the purposes of provision of livelihood restoration measures. The payment of pension and other livelihood-related benefits will be monitored for the list of registered landless families as per the RPF.As of July 15, 2018, the total of number of landless households is 21,374. 2.19 Landless agricultural laborers working in the Capital City area are eligible to receive a combination of livelihood restoration benefits that includes: (i) payment of pensions @ INR 2,500 per month per family for a period of 10 years, with annual adjustment linked to inflation index; (ii) employment under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) for up to 365 days per year; (iii) facilitate access to interest-free loans for setting up enterprises; (vi) access to skill upgrading and training opportunities; (v) provision of subsidized food; and (vi) free access to medical and educational benefits in designated facilities. When livelihood restoration benefits are fully accessed by landless laborers, landless households are in a financial situation comparable or in some cases better to their status pre- displacement. However, some landless families may have challenges accessing all the livelihood restoration benefits, in which case there would be people in situation that may be worse than their pre-displacement status. 2.20 The World Bank‘s policy on involuntary resettlement states as an objective that ―displaced persons should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher.‖ In line with this objective, measures in addition to those already in place by APCRDA and covering all landless laborers are included in the RPF and reproduced in Annexure 12 of this RAP, to identify and to address, specifically, the needs of the most vulnerable subset of landless households, who need extra support to return to their levels prior to the announcement of the 19 Capital City. The following typologies of landless households are recognized as those at the highest risk: (i) families with women head of household; (ii) households where family members have physical disabilities; (iii) families with chronic diseases; (iv) households with aging family member who cannot longer work (over 60 years old); (v) families with no alternative sources of income other than APCRDA pension; and (vi) families of Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes whose sole source of income is APCRDA pensions. 2.21 APCRDA has established a methodology to identify the vulnerable landless families, within a total of 21,374 landless households as of cut-off date. Using this methodology an assessment was carried out by APCRDA in June - July 2018. A total of 857 vulnerable landless families were identified, living in the 25 villages of the Capital City area. While they are similar in nature to some of the general initiatives that APCRDA is implementing across the Capital City for all landless laborers, additional measures specifically tailored and targeted to the needs of the identified 857 families have been designed and include: (i) expanding safety nets for targeted; (ii) skill training for those eligible, tailored to supply of jobs; (iii) job dashboard with information on employment opportunities in villages across the Capital City; (iv) safe, public transportation options for women to travel for work to other locations; and (v) creation of more employment opportunities under MGNREGA within and nearby area of Capital City. 2.22 Existing Self Help Groups (SHG) will, in coordination with APCRDA, engage in reaching out to the targeted households and supporting them as these proposed measures are rolled out. Specifically, they will, first, monitor the implementation of measures targeted to the vulnerable landless households to ensure that measures: (i) provide additional opportunities for target vulnerable landless families to improve their livelihood; and (ii) address some of the bottlenecks in accessing existing programs. Second, activate monitoring mechanisms to verify and calibrate the success of proposed measures, aiming at reducing the number of vulnerable landless families with time; and third, engage with communities and identify new potential families that may need additional assistance. It is expected that the original number of vulnerable landless families will reduce gradually, as target support measures bridge existing gaps and allow families to access opportunities to improve their livelihoods. The monitoring mechanism is in place, building on the present and the penetration of SHGs and of NGO/consultants, will provide a channel to identify on a continuous basis, families that may fall into a vulnerable state. Common Property related impacts 2.23 The proposed 10 roads will impact 11 Common Property Resources (CPR), including 3 burial grounds, 6 temples of Hindu worship, and 2 abandoned tanks. Table 9 summarizes the status of consultations and consent for provision of alternative sites for the CPRs affected by the 10 roads. Consultations for the balance CPRs are under way with the trustees / village elders. 20 Table 9: List of Common Property Resources affected by 10 priority roads and status (as of July 2018) Road Sy.

CONSULTATIONS / BASELINE SOCIO-ECONOMICCHARACTERISTICS OF AFFECTEDFAMILIES 3.1 During February and March 2015, a census socio-economic survey was conducted by APCRDA to collect information related to all households in Amaravati city. The survey was conducted by well qualified and trained field officers/investigators of District Rural Development Agency (DRDA), on behalf of APCRDA, in all villages of capital city. A unique ID was generated for each household in the capital city. The survey documented all household living in the capital city. 3.2 PAFs data corresponding to 2,042 families affected by 10 priority roads financed under the World Bank project (under LPS, LA or NS mechanisms) have been obtained from within this socio-economic survey. Subsequently, a sample socio-economic survey was carried out in 2017 among the project affected people. This sample survey attempted to cover all families, but actual survey was done among only a sample group out of those residing in the capital city area ( About 50% are absentees). The list of PAFs and PDFs is included inAnnexure 7 while the survey findings of the socio-economic survey is presented inAnnexure 4 of this RAP. 3.3 Information on non-resident landowners‘ is captured from the land registers available with the Competent Authorities (CAs) and Sub-registrar offices. In addition, paper notices and pamphlets were circulated to spread awareness about identifying non-resident land owners. This has resulted in obtaining details of about 10% additional non-resident land owners. This is an ongoing effort until all the non-resident land owner details are obtained. ` 3.4 The methodology and approach followed for this survey is outlined below: a) Lists of PAFs (losing land and / or structures) were collected from the respective Competent Authorities. The survey was carried out among these PAFs. Subsequently, it was confirmed that some of these PAFs have opted for LPS, b) Coordinating with Competent Authorities (CA) for prior appointment to conduct surveys in the affected villages, c) Information about survey to PAFs by the Competent Authorities, d) Visit the villages on the appointed dates and conduct survey and e) Revisit the villages in case of respondents not present first time. Key baseline socio-economic indicators 3.5 Sample size: The sample size of the socio-economic survey carried out for this RAP is as follows:  The share of non-LPS families covered is 36% of residents (102 of 285 families).  The sample of LPS families covered is about 24% (179 out of 745families). 3.6 The survey attempted to cover the maximum number of total affected families (2,042). However, it was found that 1,022 families (50% of the total) were absentee landowners residing outside of the capital city, and could not be contacted for the survey. Among those residing within the capital city. i.e. 1,020 families, the household survey was carried out among 281 families (28% of the total). 3.7 The household survey is carried out primarily to assess the living standards that provide basis to evaluate future living standard improvement. The household survey is supplemented by 22 focus group meetings attended by 225 people, and 5 public consultations with 300 22 participants. Specifically, the participation for LARR is low as families under LARR preferred the channels of focus group or public consultation meetings rather than individual household surveys. However, non-participation in the household survey does not affect the number of beneficiaries or them accessing entitlements, benefits available to PAPs under all 3 land assembly mechanisms. 3.8 The census data related to individual details, land lost and various benefits, etc., are available to all families. The identification details for all LPS farmers would be available upon the annuities/pensions paid and returnable plots allotted. For Negotiated settlement, all details on the affected family would be available upon individual negotiated agreements signed and consent applications submitted. In case of LARR act, the land acquiring notifications, compensation awards will automatically capture all affected people‘s details, which would be available with APCRDA. 3.9 The following are the key findings from the sample socio-economic survey (2017) among the displaced families and land owners under LARR act (N=102). Refer to Table 10 for more details10:  About 44% of the PAF households are Female Headed Households.  About 45% of the PAFs are illiterate. An NGO will be engaged by APCRDA by August 15, 2018 to facilitate access of PAFs to various government run programs, skill development activities, information sharing, awareness building, etc.  Average age of the PAF household head is about 51 years.  Most of the PAF household heads are either agricultural laborers (32%) or farmers (22%).  Around 78% of the PAFs belong to General Category while 13.7% belong to BC and 8.9% and 1% belong to Scheduled Casteand Scheduled Tribe, respectively.  About 44% of the PAFs‘family size is ranging between 1-3 members per family while 52% PAFs‘family size is ranging between 3-5 members.  92% of PAFs possess Ration Cards  About 96% of the PAFs have own houses and among them 66% have pucca houses11, of which 95% have electricity connection. The source of drinking water for 75% of the PAF households is water tap and public stand post for 23%.  93% of PAFs have LPG gas connections, while 7% use firewood and LPG together.  About 91% of the PAF households have individual latrines.  68% of PAFs visit clinic in their respective village while 24% visit clinics in town, for medical treatment.  All the PAFs have access to TV, cable connection and LPG connection.  53% of PAFs own two-wheeler and 84% have cell phones.  54% of PAFs own livestock and 30.8% earn an average income of INR 3,000 per month through livestock.  The average household monthly income is more than INR 15,000 for 44% of PAFs.  Number of PAFs with personalloans is 46.4%. Those with loans for health-related purposes it is 18%. The total loan amount taken vary between INR 1.00 lakh to 3.00 lakhs  Around 79% of PAFs expressed that they can manage their own during relocation due to proposed road construction. About 74% of the PAFs preferred to stay in the same village,while 18.6% are willing to move away from the village. However, all those affectedwill be moved to resettlement sites within their village or closer to their villages 10The surveyed data is available in project files for any further reference. 11 The term pucca means "solid" and "permanent‖ housing, meaning built of substantial material such as stone, brick, cement, concrete, or timber. 23  About 81% of PAFs expressed that the proposed roads project will improve basic amenities in the village and people who are interested to work in the proposed road contract constitute 27%. The details are provided in Annexure 4 and the average values for key indicators is summarized below.

Out of 102 respondents, 44% are women. Among 300 people attended in the 12N = Baseline number of sample 13Defined as family with annual income less than INR 60,000 in rural areas and INR 75,000 in urban areas 14HSC - House Service Connections 15Demographic details for family members is provided at Annexure 4 16Detailed account is presented from the household survey data to enable monitoring in due course. 24 focus group meetings, 28%, i.e. 85 are women. Further, among those who received skill training, 788 (70%) out of 1,121 are women (data not separately segregated for project footprint). 3.11 The trainings provided to women include Java in Information Technology, Jute Bags, Automation, Electrical, Logistics, Land Survey, Herbal Making, Maggam Work (weaving), Mechanical, LMV Driving, English Employability skills, Beautician, Accountancy, Horticulture, Mobile technician, 2-Wheeler Technician, AC Technician, Fashion designing and tailoring, etc. As part of LPS benefits, free education for degree, post-graduation and other professional courses, applications have been offered. A total of 49 applications were received by July 2018, of which 25 are from women (51%). Among pensioners, 60% are women. As part of RAP implementation, gender disaggregated data will be recorded and highlighted in the progress reports, exclusive to the project footprint. 3.12 The gender gaps identified during focus group meetings include: (i) livelihood gaps for women with lack of alternative employment opportunities due to absence of suitable skills; (ii) women receive lower daily wages (50% lower) than men, because they are less organized in groups/committees and thus have lower bargaining power;(iii) women have lower literacy rates (28% against 33% by men); (iv) large proportion ofagricultural laborers are women who find it difficult to get job in the changing urban setting; (v) long travel to avail MNEREGA works; (vi) awareness, capacity and financial literacy gaps among women. To address the above gaps, APCRDA is taking measures, including: (i) organizing exposure visits to women to various skill development and women institutions, (ii) engaging a NGO having expertise in women livelihood sector to assess and develop suitable skills training program that match employment opportunities; and (iii)organizingfinancial literacy awareness sessions among women. Consultations 3.13 As part of RAP preparation, multiple consultations (in different formats) were held, including: individual discussions, focus group discussions, public consultations amongst a variety of stakeholders including women, economically backward communities, vulnerable and marginal population, NGOs, CBOs, etc. APCRDA ensured distribution of Telugu version of the invitation / subject matter for discussion prior to the consultations. The draft RAP was disclosed by APCRDA ahead of consultation meetings and Telugu translation of the public consultation note was provided. A detailed overview of consultations is provided in Annex 5. In addition to consultations described in this RAP, on-going consultations will be conducted twice a year during the project implementation period. Focus Group Discussions 3.14 A total of 22Focus Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted in 10 villages at different locations.Around 225 people consisting of PAFs and landless pensioners, women‘s groups, Scheduled Castes/ Scheduled Tribes community,physically displaced families, familiesaffected on government lands, etc.The summary of these FGDs is given below and the details are summarised in Annexure 5A.  Many of the PAFs indicated that they are aware of the project and itsimpacts. However, they requested for additional inputs on entitlements. They requested that this information be given through community meetings, print and electronic media and 25 other communication materials like pamphlets, FAQ booklets, etc. They would like this to be in easily understandable terms with examples.  PAFs wanted to know the rates used for valuation of their structures.  SomePAFs wereconcerned about guideline land rates used for compensation under LA, as they feared these might be low.  Many PAFs believe the compensation for structures may not be enough to build a similar structure, as the rates in the capital region are on the rise.  Many of the PAFs wanted clarity on the tax on entitlements and registration fee for sites. They asked forthis to be clarified from official sources.  PAFs wanted information on the implementation schedule with details such as a) when the acquisition will be done, b) when would they be notified to vacate their residences, c) how much time will be given for vacating the houses, d) when will be rehabilitation plots allotted to them, e) whether they would be relocated as a community as they are now, f) how much time will be given for building houses at the resettlement locations, g) can they take the salvageable material from the demolished residences, etc.  None of the contacted PAFs wanted to move to rented accommodations. They communicated that rents hadgone up multi-fold after the announcement of Capital City. PAFs wanted confirmation that they wouldnot be displaced without providing alternative accommodation.  Many PAFs ask for additional benefits for the most vulnerable families.  PAFs requested that annuities and pensions be provided beyond ten years after announcement of Capital City, in case development of the area takes longer than the expected 10 years.  During most of the FGDs, some of the PAFs questioned the width of the proposed roads and their straight (grid) alignment. They request reduced widths and changes in alignment to reduce the number of impacted residences.  Many of those who claim to have built houses on government land (as per records), say they have spent money buying the land, registering it and in building their homes. They expressed they will lose everything if the government does not consider it as their own land, as they have purchased the same and registration too is done.APCRDA clarified that in case of those who have sale deeds, the compensation to structures and alternative plots will be provided equivalent to private land owners with titles.Those without formal titles would also be compensated, as per entitlement matrices included in Annexures 1 and 3.  Some aged PAFs notedthe compensation, even if multi-fold, will not solve their problem, as they will not be able to build the houses again. None among those present wanted government built houses. Those who did not want to shift to government built houses will be provided with compensation as per the provisions in LARR Act. Self-relocation is proposed as an alternative option. For those PAFs who are opting for a developed plot with infrastructure in the resettlement colony will be provided with construction grant and other allowances as per the provisions of the Negotiated Settlement Policy. Public Stakeholder consultations on RAP 3.15 Four public consultation meetings on this RAP were held during August 29-30, 2017 (in Thulluru, Anantavaram, Venkatapalem, and Neerukonda). The dates of the meetings were announced in advance in English and Telugu newspapers, as well as in the APCRDA web site. A brochure containing key aspects of the RAP, including entitlements and grievance mechanism,were circulated in all the villages.The brochure is available at ASSCDP link of CRDA website and at Public Information Centers (PICs). More than 300 people representing different impact groups from various villages attended consultations. APCRDA made 26 presentation on the key provisions on Environment and social safeguard documents and then followed by discussions. 3.16 About 523 written suggestions/objections were also submitted. Out of these, only 12 were received from World Bank project affected people. Comments received from 12 PAFs during consultations refer to generic issues such as land requirements for capital city; requests for clarifications and additional information, and some related to suggestions on the provisions in RPF/RAP.None of these PAPs have approached the grievance redress committee. The local media widely covered the outcome of the consultations (see Annexure 5), which is summarized below. 3.17 Comments expressed by landownerswho have joined LPS:LPS farmers conveyed the following: (i) they are eagerly waiting for development of infrastructure, especially basic amenities around returnable plot layouts; (ii) people complaint given that there is no visible development 3 years after their lands weretaken; (iii) need support in understanding legal aspects of various orders and application of the provisions; (iv) clarifications ofuser and development related charges; (v) process followed for acquisition of isolated structures in LPS areas is not clear; (vi) additional information on standards and facilities to be provided in returnable plots layouts, in term of internal roads, drainage, sewers, application of development charges etc. should be disseminated; (ix) third annuity payment is still pending for somebeneficiaries(Some delays were experienced by APCRDA in payment of annuities and pensions in 2018. All committed payments have subsequently been made); and, (x) LPS certificates cannot be mortgages for loans(this was discussed.

The list of people who attended the meeting and signed the attendance sheets are available in the project files. The names are not included in the Annex since some of them did not like their name in the public domain. Some of them also refused to sign the attendance sheets. Consultations were attended by various impact groups.Issues raised during consultations were largely limited to individual concerns, as well as issues outside the World Bank project scope (e.g. declaration of Capital City, requirement of land for the capital city, lanka lands, village site boundary clarifications, validity of Acts, references to development and user charges, mortgaging land and repayment of loan for the proposed World Bank loan).All the grievances related to discrepancies in measurements were attended and where people are not satisfied have appealed to Principal Secretary and most of these were disposed of and few remaining are being examined. 3.20 A summary of the actions taken / plan of action initiated from the outcomes of the consultation meetings is presented below and the details are provided in Annexure 5: Table 11- Public Consultations: outcomes &action plan to address the outcomes S. Outcome Action taken / plan of action No 1. Eagerly waiting for development Infrastructure Master Plan completed, tenders in 3 of infrastructure in returnable plot zones for development of infrastructure out of 13 layouts zones are invited, rest in process and will be completed well within the stipulated time of 3 years as per the Act. 2. Legal support The legal cell of APCRDA is currently supporting the farmers in person through the Grievance Redressal process, from Competent Authorities. Additional legal support will be made available through a dedicated legal cell / team both at APCRDA headquarters as well as city office during implementation of ASCCDP. 28 S. Outcome Action taken / plan of action No 3. Lack of clarity in respect of user A detailed discussion with farmers in respect of charges, development charges, such issues indicated that the lack of clarity is standards and facilities provided largely arising out of misguiding conversations at in returnable layouts, acquisition various levels. As a remedial measure, a detailed of isolated structures, etc.. document of frequently asked questions both in English and Telugu languages is published which will be revised periodically with additional inputs. All documentation has been made available in website, and in Project Information Centers (PICs) 4. Delays in Annuity payments During the initial months of LPS implementation certain delays occurred on account of verification, certification and other technical grounds. All processes have now been streamlined and release of payments is ensured without any delay. Beneficiaries can approach GRM in case the credit of their benefits have not been made. The list of beneficiaries for annuity is already available in website, and at APCRDA offices. All communication related to annuity payments are informed through SMS on their registered mobile numbers for real time information. The payments are directly credited to their registered bank account numbers online. To facilitate modifications in the records, village facilitators are given additional responsibility to particularly coordinate on this subject. 5. Grievances because land M/s. EPTRI is appointed as SIA consultant and an acquisition such as consultations, expert committee is constituted in line with the classification of lands, compliance LARR Act to prepare recommendations and follow with court proceedings, alleged provisions of the Act. The grievances on LA power disconnection, quality of process are addressed by the Grievance Redressal SIA and expert committee Mechanism already in place at various levels such decisions, revision of market as Joint Collector, Guntur district, Commissioner, values, purchase of 20% APCRDA, Competent Authorities, etc. To address developed land, treatment of the project level grievances on land acquisition, those not joined in LPS project level grievance Redressal committee has been constituted. In addition, a Citizen‘s Committee also is constituted to advise on various issues that may emerge during implementation, which require independent advice and recommendations. In addition, periodic focus group consultations will be conducted with project affected people. . 6. Displaced persons - The outcomes In addition to the existing GRM, project level of consultations in respect of grievances committee and citizen‘s committee are displaced persons suggest that – constituted to strengthen the GRM. With a view to some of the individual grievances provide details on displaced families, components need to be addressed, additional of Negotiated Settlement and process, a detailed details required on entitlements in booklet in Telugu as well as English is prepared 29 S. Outcome Action taken / plan of action No respect of Negotiated Settlement, and widely circulated. This booklet can be accessed facilities in resettlement sites, at: shifting of alignment, https://crda.ap.gov.in/APCRDA/Userinterface/a measurement mismatches, details dmin/asccdp.htm of displaced families, especially those residing on government A frequently asked question – response document lands, etc.. is also made available in respect of Gramakantham issues. About 4,000 issues pertaining to Gramakantham (village boundaries) have already been resolved and the residual issues are found to be largely pertaining to non-compliant appeals and are under scrutiny by competent authorities. Discrepancy in measurement is identified to be arising out of perceived extent vs. the actual extent on the ground in the case of a limited number of farmers and is being addressed. With a view to avoid such discrepancies in future, the returnable plots are being provided with DGPS coordinates. Additional consultation meetings are held to address the requests of those residing on government lands. The outcomes of these meetings are documented in project files. As of July 2018, 60 people have given their consent to negotiate on their support to resettlement under negotiated settlement policy. 8. Other outcomes – citizen‘s A Citizen‘s Committee consisting of majority committee; representatives from farmers, academicians, administrators and people‘s representatives has beenconstituted because of the outcomes from the consultations. 9 Other outcomes – safety concerns Half day workshop conducted to sensitize the because road works contractors about safety issues. Progress monitored on a bi-weekly basis by the implementing agency. 10 Other outcomes – not directly Non project specific questions have been routed to connected with the project the relevantdepartments for their attention. 30 Photo report of focus group discussions held during Apr – Jun, 201717 Nowluru – 1 – FGD with women‘s group Nowluru – 1 – FGD with Structure loss on (pensioners/landless poor) Government Lands Abbarajupalem – FGD with structure loss Thulluru – FGD with Marginal farmers under people on private lands LPS (annuity less than INR 75000) Thulluru – FGD with structure lost Nowluru – Interaction with participants of PDFs Skill Development Training 17Fullset of photographs are made available in the project files at APCRDA, a few visuals only are presented for ready reference 31 Kuragallu – FGD with landless pensioners Mandadam – FGD with Marginal Farmers Nowluru – FGD with women pensioners Krishnayapalem – FGD with PDFs Penumaka – FGD with PDFs Thulluru– FGD with PDFs 32 IV.INSTITUTIONAL AND IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS Institutional Arrangements 4.1 Allimpactsassociatedwiththelandrequiredforthe10 priority roadswillbemanagedbyAPCRDAandthroughDistrictAdministrationasappropriate.Thefollowin ginstitutionalarrangementsareinplace: 4.2 Andhra Pradesh CapitalRegion Development Authority (APCRDA): CRDA passes resolutions for acquisition of lands andgovernment prescribes rules/ regulations for implementation of LPS/ Negotiated Settlement under the Act.

The differential costs to meet RPF provisions will beapproved by the Authority. Implementation Mechanism for LPS / LA / Negotiated Settlement Policy 4.3 Implementation Mechanism for LPS.The process includes several steps and various agreements and consultations. The key steps include notification of LP scheme, hold consultations and hear objections/suggestions, invite landowners to participate in LPS, execution of development agreement, formulation of redevelopment schemes, allotment of re- developed plots and registration of redevelopment plots in favour of land ownerswho surrendered land in favour of APCRDA. As per Section 57(4) of the APCRDA Act 2014, the Land Pooling Ownership Certificate (LPOC) shall be the conclusive evidence of the title of the property in respect of the reconstituted plot / land and shall be eligible for transfer of rights of the property in accordance with the provisions of the Registrations Act 1908. The issuance of LPOC is equivalent step of payment of compensation and other benefits entitled under LARR Act 2013. The entitlement matrix for LPS is included in Annexure 1. 4.4 Implementation Mechanism under LAR&R Act, 2013. Social Impact Assessment (SIA) studyis the first step for Land Acquisition under LARR Act 2013 to document the impacts and assess the land acquisition requirements and conclude that the benefit of project outweigh the social costs and adverse social impacts. Once the SIA report is heard through public hearing, reviewed by an Expert committee and approved by the Government, the Preliminary and Public Notification on LA process is initiated. The lands required for construction of Capital City Development Project would be provided through LPS / LA / Negotiated Settlement Policy. The key outcomes of SIA, public hearing and Expert committee‘s views and appropriate Government‘s approval of land acquisition inputs will be summarized in RAP. The detailed steps and process to be followed for land acquisition and entitlements matrix is outlined in Annexure 2. 4.5 Implementation Mechanism under Negotiated Settlement Policy.The areas of requirement of land in the village settlement zone are not covered by Land Pooling Scheme. 33 Any land required for formation of Roads, Metro Lines etc., within the R1 zone is contemplated to have a Negotiated Settlement.. Section-124 of APCRDA Act, 2014 enables the Authority to acquire any property by way of negotiated settlement and in cases where the negotiated settlement fails the provisions of LA R&R Act, 2013 would be made applicable as per requirement of development plan.  Once the negotiating committee and displaced family negotiates on package offered by District Collector, the agreed assistance will be reflected in the negotiated agreement.  Negotiated settlement policy is estimated to be not lower than the provision of LA R&R Act as land to land lost in village site/ habitation is being allotted in a developed Rehabilitation Centre and it is optional. 4.6 Interested persons may come forward to opt for negotiated settlement policy instead of LA. The Competent Authority representing the APCRDA will enter into negotiated settlement through process of negotiation by the Committee constituted by District Collector consisting of land administration and technical persons as members. The compensation and assistance under negotiated policy includes:  Land to land for footprint area of houses/ house sites excluding common areas  Non-Agricultural land – land to land with as is use condition  Two times of the estimated value of the house/ structures as per PWD norms without deducting depreciation and allowing salvage to meet the RP Cost.  Cost of construction of alternative houses /shops as per GoAP norms 4.7 Those who are not having formal legal rights over houses would be rehabilitated under affordable housing schemes of Government of Andhra Pradesh duly paying structure value..The detailed steps in implementation of the Negotiated Settlement policy are provided inAnnexure 3. Updated Resettlement unit costs 4.8 The project has adopted the unit costs for R&R assistance as available in the LARR Act, 2013 w.e.f. 1.1.2014, for R&R entitlements compensation under LARR Act. and w.e.f 19.04.2017 for Negotiated Settlement. In case of LA, the revised unit costs notified by GoAP, as per Section 31 of the LARR Act 2013 will be applicable from the date of notification. Proposals are submitted to government in this regard. In case of Negotiated settlement, the project has adopted the unit costs for R&R assistance from negotiated settlement Policy of GoAP, wef from 19.04.2017. Inflation indexation will be made w.e.f 01.04.18. The difference to updated unit costs will be paid immediately after approval of Project for the lands covered under the Project footprint. Road wise Encumbrances 4.9 Road-wise encumbrances are identified survey number wise and recorded in Field Measurement Book. Details of the project-affected encumbrances are presented in Annexure 9. DGPS coordinates of each parcel affected are available in GIS files. The contractors, ADC will undertake joint survey after the contracts are awarded and record the encumbrances on the ground and prepare a time table for their mitigation so as to handover the encumbrance lands to enable APCRDA/ADC to hand over the lands within the time table proposed in the contracts. Coordination with District Administration for Land Acquisition 4.10 The following officers will havethe required administrative powers to deal with 34 theland acquisition andrelated activities.

The following coordination mechanisms will be maintained, unless otherwise agreed between the executing agency and APCRDA, and in consultation with the World Bank.  Where thereare retroactive expenditures, a due diligence approach has been followed to determine the compliance with RPF and RAP provisions including payment of full compensation and R&R assistance before taking over of the land through an in-process audit. Since RAP implementation and corresponding civil works for these 10 roads had already commenced prior to Bank clearance, an in-process audit was carried out and the key findings include: (i) land plots have not fully been handed over to the contractors – mainly those that are under land acquisition (LARR) process; (ii) disaggregated data on various benefits provided to people at projectlevel is not available. Main recommendations from theauditinclude: (i) agreements reached under Negotiated Settlement should be signed by both landowners and APCRDA; (ii) skill training programs should be designed to meet the construction needs of the capital city development; (iii) contractors should periodically report to APCRDA on how they are managing social and environmental impacts associated with contracts; and, (iv) there should be a full time Social Development staff at APCRDA or ADCL instead of staff with additional charge. The above recommendations are being pursued by APCRDA/ADCL and an action plan to address the same is presented in Annexure 11. .  In all instances, the implementation of resettlement activities is linked to the implementation of the contracts to ensure that displacement or restriction of access does not occur before necessary measures for resettlement are in place. For impacts covered under the RAP, these measures include provision of compensation and of other assistance required for relocation, prior to displacement, and preparation and provision of resettlement sites with adequate facilities, where required. Taking of land and related assets will take place only after compensation has been paid, LPS certificates were issued and, where applicable, alternative housing and moving allowances have been provided to the displaced persons.  An account ofroad-wise encumbered lands needed for the road construction is provided in Annexure 9. Based on this information, the section-wise handing over of the lands to the contractors will be determined and reflected in the bid document. The payment of compensation and R&R assistance as well as Land Pooling OwnershipCertificates (LPOC)for returnable plots in case of those joined land pooling will be certified with details by - the Joint Collector, for LA and Negotiated Settlement Policy, prior to handing over of such stretches to the Contractors.  The bid documents will include a provision that the representatives of contractor and Employer shall, on a mutually agreed date and time, will inspect the site and prepare a 36 memorandum containing the inventory of the site including the vacant and unencumbered land, buildings, structures, road works, trees and other immovable proprieties on or attached to the site. The memorandum will be appended to the contract document specifying the details of the parts sections which are not handed over and agree and record a date for subsequent handing such parts free of encumbrances and the contractor will bear all risks arising out of the inadequacy or physical condition of the site that has been identified and recorded as unencumbered in the memorandum. The details of Encumbrances by road wise is summarised below and the details are provided in Annexure 9.This will be updated once the joint survey among contractors and Amaravati Development Corporation (ADC) is completed and will become basis for monitoring the identified encumbrance on a timely basis to hand over the 100% lands to contracts with in the contract provisions. Project Implementation Unit 4.12 In order to coordinate with district administration and manage project related impacts, surveys, studies, monitor implementation and interact with World Bank, the following dedicated project level staff have been mobilized inthe Project Management Unitof APCRDAfor the implementation of the Bank supported project.  LandAcquisitionOfficertocoordinatewithalllandacquisition/Negotiatedsettlement,LP S and relatedissuesrelatedWorldBankfinancedsub-projects  SocialDevelopmentOfficertocoordinatewithcensus,social- economicsurveys,consultation,deliveryofannuityandpensions,implementationofRAP, supporttovulnerablepeople,etc.TheabovetwoofficerswillbereportingtoProjectDirector ofPMU fortheWorldBankfinancedproject.  ThesetwoofficerssupportofallseniorstaffofAPCRDA.  In addition to two dedicated staff in APCRDA for the project, an additional social development specialist will be in place in ADC, who will be implementing the civil works to manage the social impacts in construction activities. Additional unforeseen impacts during implementation 4.13 In the event of additional impacts to private land acquisition,physical displacement of people, or of those living on public lands is encountered due to changes in the alignment, missed out in identification or otherwise, a supplementary or addendum to RAP prepared and shared with the World Bank for review and endorsement. The revised document will also be approved by the competent authority and re-disclosed. Management Information System 4.14 RPF, RAP, Negotiated Settlement Policy, LARR Matrix, SES data, estimation of structures, LPS matrix, tender documents, list of affected people, etc., will be disclosed through various project offices, Competent Authority offices, APCRDA as well as Joint Collector Offices. These documents will be made available in the public domain through websites, in brochures and other forms of documentation. A separate site / page will be developed where all project foot print related information and data will be maintained and updated regularly. The progress in payment of annuities, issuance of Land Pooling Certificates, compensation and R&R assistance for land owners affected by the Bank project will be reported to the World Bank as part of quarterly reporting during project implementation. 37 4.15 APCRDA has created a separate webpage18 to disclose all the project related documents including safeguards documents, including Resettlement Policy Framework, Environmental Social Management Framework, Environmental Impact Assessment – Environmental Management Plans as well as Resettlement Action Plans and other information pertaining to World Bank funded projects. People can directly access the project related documentation online. The list of affected people and its updates are also disclosed on this site for easy access.Printed versions of these documents are also available at Project Information Centers (PICs) in every village. Grievance Redressal Mechanism (GRM) 4.16 Multiple channels have been set up in Amaravati to facilitate the reporting of grievancesand the monitoring of how those are being addressed. The various GRM channels will be used for the proposed ASCCDP, and can be specifically used by project affected people under the Bank-financed project. A brief description of both the existing as well as (additional) proposed GRMs are as follows.Bank project (ASCCDP) related grievances addressed / redressed by the GRM / GRC will be collated and reported separately on a quarterly basis as part of project progress review. 4.17 To strengthen the existing grievance redressal system and to provide citizens of Amaravati with quick service, the APCRDA has constituted a Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC) with the Commissioner, APCRDA as Chairman, Special Commissioner, Additional Commissioner and respective HoDs/Directors as members. Joint Director OM &OSD (meetings) will be the Member Convener for GRC. All officials interfacing with citizens (farmers, landowners, pensioners etc) will address and resolve grievances within a time limit. Those grievances which require inputs from other departments/ HoDs for decision making in respect of resolving should be brought to the notice of GRC, which will meet once a month i.e., every Saturday.The first Grievance Committee Meeting pertaining to 10 roads was conducted on 1st March 2018. It was decided that the GRC Meeting shall be conducted every Saturday till further notice to address grievances expeditiously in respect of project footprint. In addition to resolving the pending Grievances, the GRC will review the status of Grievances pertaining to all divisions. 4.18 The GRM procedure is simple to facilitate access by PAPs.The procedure for handling grievances is as follows: i. The affected person files his/her grievance in writing, to the GRM. The grievance note should be signed and dated by the aggrieved person. Where the affected person is unable to write, s/he will be provided with assistance to write the note and emboss the letter with his/her thumbprint. The Project Information Centre established at each unit office will be facilitating such assistance. ii. The GRM should respond within 14 days during which any meetings and discussions to be held with the aggrieved person should be conducted. If the grievance relates to valuation of assets, experts may need to be requested to revalue the assets, and this may necessitate a longer period of time. In this case, the aggrieved person must be notified by the GRM that his/her complaint is being considered. iii. If the aggrieved person does not receive a response or is not satisfied with the outcome within the agreed time the person may escalate to the relevant Authority. 18 https://crda.ap.gov.in/APCRDA/Userinterface/admin/asccdp.htm 38 iv. The relevant Authority will then attempt to resolve the problem (through dialogue and negotiation) within 14 days of the complaint being lodged. If no agreement is reached at this stage, then legal recourse is sought. Existing GRM Mechanisms 1. ‘Meekosam’ (‘for you’ in English): 4.19 State-widesingle window online framework for receiving grievances, complaints, covering all departments. Along with reporting complaints people can also give suggestions to government directly through this web portal. All the reports and suggestions will be accessible to the respective departments and CM. (URL:http://www.meekosam.ap.gov.in).  In addition to CRDA, Urban Development Department, Revenue Department, Social Welfare Department, and others are all part of this GRM framework.  The recording of grievance is based on Aadhar number.  The person who posts grievance or suggestion could track the progress of his/her application.  An acknowledgement will be received via SMS/ e-mail once a grievance is registered.  The grievance will be registered, tracking id issued, categorized and forwarded to the department concerned.  It will be escalated to higher authorities if the grievance is not addressed within a certain time-frame.  The status of the grievance could also be tracked through a toll-free number 1100/1800- 425-4440.  A Call Centre has been set up to register and provide information on status of grievance applications.  Each of the Competent Authority Unit19 is separately registered in the Meekosam portal to ensure that the grievance is expeditiously addressed by the concerned officer. The progress of redressal is monitored by Commissioner APCRDA at the organization level and by Hon‘ble CM at the state level, during regular review meetings held on e very Monday and Wednesday, respectively.  Grievances received from Meekosam, pertaining to CRDA mainly included: payment of pensions, issue of health cards, filling up of vacancies in respect of SC/STs, requests for jobs/ employment grants, requests for enrolment into household survey, request for allotment of government land and provide loan to build houses etc. 4.20 All grievances received from Meekosam are forwarded to respective departments. In case of Capital City Development project as well as the Bank project, the compliance will be forwarded to APCRDA. A Committee under the Chairmanship of Commissioner has been constituted to review the compliance on a weekly basis and the responses and grievances will 19 LPS unit, there are 26 units in capital city and the same units are now addressing the LA process as well 39 be sent to complainants based on the decisions by the grievance committee. Most of the grievances are redressed on daily basis. Screenshots extracted from the Meekosam site are annexed at Annexure 10.1. The grievances related to project are not separately available, but a mechanism is being put in place to segregate complaints related to Bank project and their status will be reported to the World Bank during project implementation. 2.Mana Amaravati App 4.21 A mobile APP – Mana Amaravati aims to bridge the gap between the state government, citizens of Amaravati, investors, buyers and sellers of plots, district administration, CRDA and other stakeholders. The app also facilitates information about the projects including the World Bank funded projects. The grievance redressal system has also been built into the app, with which citizens can address issues with concerned departments at their convenience as well as register/know status/ response of their complaints and suggestions. 4.22 As of now, there are 20 services integrated into the ‗Mana Amaravati‘ appli cation.

APCRDA Portal for Grievance Redressal 4.26 Consultations and grievance redressal mechanisms have been the key enablers for the success of the Capital City Land Pooling Scheme, initiation and implementation works. In addition to the Meekosam, APCRDA has its own GRM that includes: (i) a 3-stage physical system, that originates with designated officials (―Competent Authority‖) at various zonal offices throughout Amaravati city, who citizens can approach to address grievances (see below); and (ii) an online system through the portal: (https://crda.ap.gov.in/APCRDA/Userinterface/Admin/GrievanceRedressalSystem.aspx). 4.27 The grievances from the portal are categorized and forwarded to respective CA units and to the Commissioner APCRDA for further action. 4.28 The three-stage system includes: Stage I Grievance Redressal Cell will be at the 43 Competent Authority level at the village itself. About 26 units of Competent Authorities (CAs) were established during the early stages of Amaravati (Jan/Feb 2015), which are headed by Deputy Collector. The Deputy Collector is assisted by a team of officials including revenue, survey. This translates to the fact that each Deputy Collector is attending to the issues of approximately 1,000 -1,500 farmers of the capital city villages, and is always available to public at large. The Stage II Grievance Redressal Cell will be at the Amaravati city / district level, where the Joint Collector will chair the Grievance Redressal Cell. The Stage III Grievance Redressal Cell will be chaired by R&R Commissioner at State (GoAP) Level. 4.29 Every Monday grievance redressal meeting is held at the CRDA office of the Capital City in which officers from all competent authorities make themselves available for attending to public. The office of Commissioner at the CRDA in Vijayawada city receives grievances and addresses them on a daily basis. Early institutional measures taken to address grievances: a) 26 units of Competent Authorities are established during the early stages of Amaravati (Jan/Feb 2015), which are headed by deputy collector, who otherwise is responsible for more than a district. The deputy collector is assisted by a team of officials including revenue, survey. This translates to the fact that each deputy collector is attending to the issues of approximately 1000 -1500 farmers of the capital city villages and is always available to public at large. b) These officers have sorted out many land-people related issues while taking the farmers into confidence which mainly included: Family disputes, Enjoyment issues, Survey errors, Extent variations, Encroachments, Assignments and Wakf, Endowment land disputes, etc. In addition,Help Desks were opened to enter into agreements and payment of benefits, Personalized and Door Step Services were provided, a dedicated Support Cell was established for NRIs and NRVs. c) The grievance redressal mechanism, in addition to the consultative process has addressed over 25,000 issues. 9.2 objections alone amount to 17096 covering an extent of 6511 acres of which 7,859 objections have been disposed in favor and 9,237 objections rejected on lack of grounds/ merits.

Proceedings of the public consultations Minutes of Public Consultation Workshop held on August 29, 2017 Thulluru – 10.30 am to 1.00 pm – 83 people were present Welcome Address given by the Director, Strategy to the workshop and Director, Lands. 13. A presentation on the draft World Bank Safeguards Documents was made by Director, Strategy, with a request to provide public opinion and feedback on the draft documents. The following suggestions / clarifications were sought by the public: I. A farmer from Nelapadu – Road hit plots / structures (LPS layout infrastructure) II. A farmer from Thulluru – Rehabilitation colony details to be shared well in advance with regards to road width, etc., People affected are ready to given their lands under Negotiated Settlement Policy provided they are given complete details. They have voluntarily given lands under LPS. III. A farmer from Lingayapalem – did not participate in LPS. He is not allowed to cultivate his land. Power has been cut. His land is under court dispute. He also requested for paying compensation for loss in agriculture for the past 3 years. IV. A landlord from Thulluru said that he has given land under LPS but when this development will happen / start. People who did not participate in LPS are obstructing the developmental activities. He requested the World Bank to speed up the process of development. Committees with membership from farmers need to be established in all villages to resolve issues. V. A Government employee of Thulluru – He mentioned that his grievances were not yet addressed. Submitted 9.2 objections as his structure is getting affected by N14 road. He wanted APCRDA to inform about the compensation in writing. His land under Survey No. 22/3 was asked for pooling but he did not agree to give his land under pooling. VI. A landlord from Rayapudi – requested the World Bank to understand the issues of people affected by Land acquisition. He said that they don‘t oppose the Capital development. He wanted APCRDA to identify issues, create awareness and resolve issues. As per the promises, he wanted to provide suitable job opportunities, skill development programs, etc., he wished that farmer has to be included in all forums as a Committee member. There is a communication gap. Constitution of citizens committee as part of development of World Class capital, health cards not much useful. Pensions to be paid to women instead of men; farmers to be given importance in all kinds of jobs. Village gets congested due to upcoming government complexes like assembly, high court, etc., air and water pollution, etc., life is becoming difficult because of these issues. Action was not taken against pending issues. Collective development is to be given more focus. Why are they being asked to participate in this meeting with World Bank to partner the farmers in all the development activities. All the issues are to be taken to the notice of Hon‘ble Chief Minister. Legal advisory is needed on behalf of APCRDA to provide guidance at Thulluru Office. As per Page No.12, Clause No.14, User charges for infrastructure in APCRDA Act needs a revision / deletion. Due to increase in the flood levels, the low-lying areas will be affected very soon. Filling up of low-lying areas is a primary concern. 76 VII. A farmer from Thulluru – 70% of people are dependent on lands. There are 3 types of lands Lanka lands, Ceiling lands and assigned lands. He asked to compensate Assigned lands on par with patta lands. Representation is provided to the O/o. Thulluru, APCRDA. Due to travelling to work there are instances of accident. Requested for a pension of INR 9000 instead of INR 2,500 per household. Social justice to be provided equally among small and marginal farmers not only confining to large farmers. VIII. A Civil Engineer staying in Hyderabad wanted to voice out his concerns on behalf of 50 villagers affected in R1 zone. Requested to revisit the clause on User Charges in APCRDA Act and asked about inclusion of ducts in implementation of road projects and LPS infrastructure. IX.

Seven contracts for the construction of 10 priority roads under the World Bank financed projectwere awarded prior to the World Bank‘s review and clearance of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) for the roads. An independent in-process audit was therefore commissioned to assess compliance of the road works with the World Bank environmental and social safeguards policies and with the provisions of the project‘s Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) and the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF). The independent audit was conducted during January – February 2018 by M/s. Centre for Environment Development. A final report was submitted in March 201832. The key findings related to social safeguards aspects are summarized below. 2. Landprocurement for Project footprint:The overall status of land hand-over to Contractor(s) is presented in the table below. The lands under LARR remains to be acquired and still not handed over to the contractor(s) and full hand over land as per contract is delayed by 9 months as of July, 2018 for 7 contracts and in case of other 3 contacts full hand over is due in August, 2018. The process of land acquisition needs to be expedited to ensure cost and time overrun of contracts are avoided. The status of land hand over as on date of the report is as follows: No Road Road with Land Land Land in Govt. / Others Total with length in assembled proposed village and lands yet length in km with a through LPS under LA areas* to be handed km with width of and with Act* over a width 50m APCRDA and of 50m lands yet to be handed over (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) 1 E6 8.69 (83.88%) 103.7 (16.71) 1.93 4.95 3.73 (3.73) 114.31 2 E8 14.95 213.68 (7.22) 2.14 6.53 (0) 222.35 (96.72%) 3 E10 7.81 (67.98%) 93 (31.03) 5.686 0.06 3.93 (0) 102.676 4 E12 6.30 (86.96%) 56.19 (8.48) 0.48 0.73 8.85 (0) 66.25 5 E14 8.76 (71.46%) 4.995 5.49 9.84 (9.84) 85.865 65.54 (18.70) 6 N4 7.17 (78.85%) 68.24 (15.32) 1.82 0.65 4.23 (0) 74.94 7 N9 12.50 95.35 (2.88) 2.27 0.39 4.94 (0) 102.95 (97.12%) 8 N11 8.67 (85.52%) 86.84 (12.98) 7.06 2.81 (0) 96.71 9 N14 8.27 (85.91%) 96.53 (13.60) 0.35 5.1 6.149 (6.14) 108.129 10 N16 7.36 (99.32%) 123.48 (0.85) 1 2.88 (0) 127.36 TOTAL 1,002.55 27.731 17.36 53.889 1,101.54 Note: Numbers are in acres, where specifically not mentioned. *-This extent is under LA and R1 zone and is not handed over to the contractors till date.

Summary of key findings: (i) It is noted that details pertaining to implementation of various benefits being provided under land assembly instruments (LPS, NSP and LARR) are not separately segregated for the project footprint. It is recommended that as part of the project monitoring during implementation, footprint specific data shall be captured to enable measurement of performance indicators, as outlined in RAP. (ii) RAP requires that land handover status is maintained up to date. Thefrequency of updateddata reconciliation needs to be increased to ensure the same. (iii) The RAP outlines the resettlement benefits in respect of Negotiated Settlement and it is observed that the accepted application for Negotiated Settlement is being treated as acceptance. However, there is no mechanism to sign an agreement similar to LPS. Therefore, it is proposed that agreed support and assistance undernegotiated settlement may be signed by both the parties. (iv) Certain process related grievanceswere notedat the time of perusal of records such as – Aadhar mismatch, change of receiving account details, job cards, etc. It is observed that the CA offices are constantly attending to these issues. While these issues havenot necessarily surfaced on account of the project, the GRM needs to monitor to ensure that these are addressed. (v) The weekly and monthly grievance redress meetings should be strengthened to avoid delays in redressal. The grievances to be segregated for the 10 Roads for effective monitoring and implementation of sub-project at the Competent Authority offices. Citizens Committee shall convene at an early date and dedicated staff shall put together each project footprint related issue, implementation progress, etc. to facilitate smooth functioning of the project as well as monitoring. ADCL shall establish a clear GRM regarding construction activities and shall be displayed in their web site. (vi) The NGO services proposed as per RAP are not in place yet at APCRDA. It is recommended to take up the task of NGO engagement on priority. (Target August 2018). (vii) Returnable plot allotment and annuity payment: During Focus Group Discussions (FDGs) by Audit team it was found that stakeholders requested periodic updating of status of of entitlements. Help desks may be maintained as part of GRM in each of the Competent Authority Offices by APCRDA in order to facilitate PAFs/ PDFs with required information. APCRDA is considering ways to address vaastu related requests, and aims to address these issues by April/May 2018. Land Pooling Ownership Certificates are currently issued with the coordinates of the allotted land. (viii) Regarding NegotiatedSettlement for the physically displaced families, the CA offices are closely working with the PAFs and PDFs in familiarizing them with the process, selection of resettlement sites, and finalization of compensation as per the policy outlined in RPF/RAP .The families will have six month time to move to new sites once they receive full compensation. and in case those who agreed for rental accommodation will vacate sites within one of the receipt of compensation and rental allowance. 124 (ix) The trengthening of Amaravati Skill Development Centre with special focus on scaling up of skills of local job seekers and matching them with local contractor requirements is an essential intervention, which requires concerted efforts.Inventory of people employment requirements, matching opportunities with time scale and gap assessment based skill development programs shall be strengthened for gradual measurable progress in creating employment potential, among the PAF/PDFs. Commencing greening of area all along roads, parts as identified in the Master Plan, by priority to registered local labor. (x) The RAP mandates employment of local workforce and this can be further enhanced. It is recommended that Contractors of the 10 roads display at public places in surrounding villages the requirement of workers, wages etc. for registration. APCRDA employment nodal Officer may coordinate the matter. Contractors shall take up skill upgradation / on the job training with remuneration through ASDC for attracting local workforce. 4. Recommended Actions and Measures taken / to be taken In response to the recommendations / findings, the following are the measures taken / being taken by APCRDA: S. Action Item Action taken No 1 Land acquisition and handover to be Reasonable progress has been made speeded up following due process so that since the in-processaudit was conducted works are not delayed any further – Preliminary Notification has been issued in all villages except Nidamarru (1/21) and compensation awards passed in 12 villages. The LA administration has been strengthened with additional functionaries by the District Administration. LA of all the required land is underway, and process is being followed as per the 2013 LARR Act. Only after payment of compensation and R&R entitlements, the lands are taken possession and are handed over to Contractors. 2 Prepare disaggregated data on various Templates to capture disaggregated benefits received by the beneficiaries data have been put in place and the through land assembly instruments concerned staff in APCRDA/ADC are now capturing the data, which can facilitate disaggregated analysis. The outcomes of this monitoring will be provided to World Bank in quarterly reports during implementation of ASCCDP 125 3 Contracts shall be facilitated immediately An agreement on the negotiation to the beneficiaries of Negotiated reached is signed between Land Settlement as the land assembly is based Acquisition Officer and interested on the beneficiary consent document only person and consent Award is passed. and not through a irrevocable agreement This agreement is legally as in the case of LPS enforceable.The surrendered land will be registered in the name of APCRDA and alternative plot will be registered in the name of allottee. 4 Publish periodic reports on environment As a result of this recommendation, and social issues including EMP necessary instructions are issued to implementation with contractor and PMC contractor as well as PMC and will be inputs. provided in quarterly reports to the World Bank during implementation of ASCCDP. 5 Recruit/ deploy full-time staff at Full time staff are in place at APCRDA APCRDA/ ADC with environment and for designated positions as per RPF. social specializations for Bank specific ADC has deployed fulltime tasks environment specialist and is in the process of hiring social specialist and will completed by August 30, 2018 (prior to appraisal) 6 Reconcile the land assembly details among On a regular basis reconciling is being district administration, APCRDA, ADC carried out. and contractor periodically 7 Set up helpdesk at units to attend the PIC is providing the support as grievances related to project beneficiaries helpdesk, and GRM has been strengthened to provide additional ways for area residents to submit grievances 8 Establish GRM at ADCL and include the This recommendation has been taken progress as part of overall GRM system onboard. The process is under administrative approval 9 Engage NGO on immediate basis NGO will be hired by Aug 15, 2018 10 Take measures to employ local workforce This is being constantly pursued by and periodically monitor the progress APCRDA/ADC. Necessary instructions are given. About 10 engineers from capital city villages are selected for working with contracts. The quarterly reporting will include local labour employment figures. The skill training to the landless is expected to make them 126 employable in local works. 11 Taking speed possession of the land by APCRDA has made a note of the same APCRDA under NSP after all and will endeavour to do on an on- compensation has been paid. going basis after ensuring all compensation have been paid. 127 Annexure 12: Assistance to Landless Families 1. Landless laborers working in the Capital City area lost their primary source of income as land was assembled by APCRDA for the development of Amaravati. Irrespective of the land assembly instrument used, i.e. LPS or Land Acquisition, the majority of agricultural day-laborer jobs no longer exists, except from those working for landowners who have not joined the LPS and/or whose land still not has been acquired under the LARR Act. Landless laborers may still continue to farm on this land. As such, the majority of landless agricultural laborers have been directly impacted by the capital city development project. A key consideration concerning landless laborers is therefore the extent to which alternative sources of income are available locally to replace the loss of income from agricultural jobs. 2. Although OP 4.12 applies only to the footprint of the World Bank financed project, it is challenging to differentiate between landless laborers affected by land assembly mechanisms within and outside the World Bank project boundaries. Therefore, APCRDA has agreed that for purposes of this RPF, all landless families registered with APCRDAfor pension by July 15, 2018 will be considered project affected people, for the purposes of provision of livelihood restoration measures. This goes beyond the APCRDA requirements related to landless families under the World Bank policies, and it illustrates the commitment of the agency to ensure that all those impacted by the Capital City development are provided opportunities to restore their livelihoods in a reasonable amount of time. The payment of pension and other livelihood related benefits will be monitored for the list of registered landless families as per this RPF and subsequent RAPs. As of July 15, 2018, the total of number of landless agricultural laborers is 21,374. 3. Landless laborers are not tied to any particular land parcel, and they work depending on availability of opportunities as and when they arise. Livelihood restoration packages have been uniformly extended to all the identified and registered landless laborers within Amaravati City since May 2015. As of May 2015, approximately 15,000 landless families were registered with APCRDA as residents of the Capital City area (families who resided in the area by December 2014). Subsequently, the number of landless families registered has increased, as APCRDA has allowed registration of additional laborers including, for example, cases of family members of original residents getting married and establishing a separate family. Unregistered landless families who wish to enroll in livelihood restoration programs need to demonstrate that they lived in the Capital City before December 2014. Proof of residence for registration includes Ration Cards, Aadhar Cards, and Voter Id Cards. 4. Landless laborers working in the Capital City area are eligible to receive a combination of livelihood restoration benefits that includes: (i) payment of pensions @ INR 2,500 per month per family for a period of 10 years, with annual adjustmentlinked to inflation index. The period of 10 years was estimated as the time needed for the Capital City to fully develop, transitioning to an urban area with predominantly non-agricultural income generating activities; (ii) employment under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) for up to 365 days per year; (iii) facilitate access to interest-free loans for setting up enterprises; (iv) access to skill upgrading and training opportunities; (v) provision of subsidized food; and (vi) free access to medical and educational benefits in designated facilities. 5. Measures are in place to ensure consistency with the World Bank policy on involuntary resettlement, in order to assist landless agricultural laborers to improve or at least restore their living standards and livelihoods to levels prior to their displacement. There is substantial 128 variability33 in records of income levels of landless agricultural laborers pre- and post- the announcement of the capital city, hence an accurate estimate of the average income of landless laborers is challenging to obtain. A review of all available data suggests that the average income level of landless households pre-capital city announcement was roughly INR 5,000 per household per month (actual - INR 4,694). In 2017, average incomes for landless laborers ranged from INR 8,500 to INR 13,500 per household per month, with data from the most recent survey (2018) suggesting an average income level of approximately INR 10,000 per household per month (actual - INR 9,636)16,34. 6. Data show that if accessed as designed, the livelihood restoration packagedesigned by APCRDA, would result in an estimated household monthly income of INR12,350 (assuming full access to all benefits and assuming two family members working). This level of earnings is substantially higher than average pre-Capital City announcement levels. This is, however, a high bound estimate. Some landless laborers may have challenges accessing, or taking advantage of all the benefits in the livelihood restoration package, which may leave them in a situation that is inferior to their pre-Capital City status. Estimates suggest, for instance, that women constitute more than 70% of agricultural worker population. Women typically make half of the income of men laborers, suggesting that the income level in some households (headed by women, for instance) may be significantly lower than the estimated maximum.This problem could be particularly acute for large or extended families where more than one family member may have lost their income35. 7. Figure A11.1 compares income levels of households from the various data sources available, including: (i) full access to livelihood restoration package, including MGNREGA benefit and the APCRDA pension (INR12,350); (ii) average household income in 2015 (INR8,476); (iii) average household income in 2017 (INR9,636). This indicates that if access to the benefit package as designed by APCRDA is effective, and if MGNREGA benefits are available, landless laborers would have access to earning levels that are comparable or even higher than those that existed prior to the initiation of the LPS. 33 Baseline data on income of landless laborers (pre- and post-announcement of capital city project) collected by several sources were analyzed. Data differ substantially across sources. This variability is not surprising given the different dates for data collection, as well as the different methodologies, including sample as well as sample sizes, geographical coverage, etc. 34 Vasavya Mahila Mandali (2018) ‗Assessment on Agricultural Labourers and Implementation of Benefi ts in Amaravati Capital City Villages‘ 35 Payne, G.

Green line indicates monthly income of a household receiving benefit package including full MGNREGA benefits and APCRDA pension43. 8. Data from consultations and field surveys also showed that a share of the landless laborers may be in a situation of high vulnerability. Therefore, measures in addition to those already in place by APCRDA and covering all landless laborers are included in this RPF, to identify and to address, specifically, the needs of the most vulnerable subset of landless laborers, who need extra support to return to their levels prior to the announcement of the capital city. The following typologies of landless households are recognized as those at the highest risk: (i) families with woman as head of household including inter alia single women, widows; (ii) households where family members have physical disabilities; (iii) families with chronic diseases; (iv) households with aging family member who can no longer work (over 60 years old); (v) families with no alternative sources of income other than APCRDA pension; and (vi) families of Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes whose sole source of income is APCRDA pensions. 9. APCRDA has established a methodology to identify the most vulnerable of the landless, i.e. households for whom the package of livelihood restoration benefits – either by design or by nature of benefits – arenot sufficient to help them restore their livelihoods to pre-Capital City standards, and whomay need additional assistance. The methodology for identification of vulnerable families, within a total universe of 21,374 landless households, includes the following steps: i. Identification of subset of landless laborers in 25 villages, consistent with the six typologies of highest risk/vulnerability; 130 ii. Deployment of network of 1,920 Self Help Groups36 (SHG) that exist in the Capital City area, which include 19,200 women members, actively engaged and well connected in their communities. SHG, in collaboration with NGO/consultants, reach out to families pre-identified according to typology (e.g. single women/head of household, with physical disabilities and chronic diseases, elderly, with no source of income other than pension, ST/SC). Common Interest Groups consisting of 10 members from SHGsare formed in each village and assigned to contact landless laborer households and to identify vulnerable landless families iii. One Village Facilitator from APCRDA‘s Competent Authority Office acts as nodal person to oversee outcomes of identification exercise. iv. Orientation sessions are held with Common Interest Groups to explain the purpose and approach to be followed for identifying the vulnerable families. Common Interest Group Leaders contactlandless families to understand their needs and requirements for employment and livelihood, and single out most vulnerable families, in need of additional support. v. APCRDA organizes focus groups with identified vulnerable landless households and develops specific livelihood measures aimed at improving the living conditions of most vulnerable group. vi. Specific Action Plans will be prepared for different typologies of households37, where targeted measures will be identified and expected results will be outlined vii. Monitoring mechanisms for implementation of measures targeted to vulnerable landless families, including methodology and frequency of monitoring are established 10. Using this methodology for identification of vulnerable landless families, an assessment was carried out by APCRDA in June - July 2018. A total of 857 vulnerable landless families were identified, living in the 25 villages of the Capital City area. APCRDA has a complete listing of families and their contact information. The economic and employment profile in the communities, and that of the landless families, varies from village to village, confirming the need for more targeted measures to resolve the needs of the most vulnerable families. The list of vulnerable landless families will likely change with time, and the number of families may increase or decrease reflecting the economic conditions of very poor households at the bottom of the income ladder. Monitoring the impact of the proposed measures on these target households, as well as the overall trend of living and economic conditions in the Capital City area will be critical, to ensure that opportunities are provided to all vulnerable landless households to restore their livelihood, and in the longer term, that the economic transformation of the area from rural to urban is lifting living standards of the poorest. The methodology to identify vulnerable landless families will be repeated within six (6) months,in order to assess impacts and new potential needs. Vulnerable landless families that may have not been identified in the 36 Self Help Groups support members in finding solutions to common problems. SHGs in AP serve as a vital agent of social change and catalyst for the empowerment and development process in a community, through providing a cost-effective credit delivery system, enabling participation in identifying, planning, budgeting, and implementing village development programs, generating a forum for collective learning, promoting democratic culture, fostering entrepreneurial culture, providing a firm base for dialogue and cooperation in programs with other institutions. 37 Households of similar characteristics will be grouped together and, when possible, measures will be targeted to multiple households 131 June-July 2018 survey will have recourses to reach out to APCRDA and request to be included in the program of additional assistance (e.g. through GRM, by contacting project NGOs). 11. The information obtained from these 857 families includes: (i) characteristics of household; (ii) amount and source of current household income; (iii) skill set and interests; and (iv) challenges in accessing and/or benefitting from livelihood support packages already being offered by APCRDA. Focus group discussions were held with the families to discuss the rationale for the additional lively restoration measures and the importance of their participation in the identification measures to address their specific circumstances. Next steps include: first, by August 31, 2018,preparation of Action Plans for individual households or for typology of households, which present the set of measures to: (i) provide new opportunities for target vulnerable landless families to improve their livelihood; and (ii) address some of the bottlenecks in accessing existing programs. Second, activate monitoring mechanisms to verify and calibrate the success of proposed measures, aiming at reducing the number of vulnerable families with time. These involve the engagement of SHGs and NGO/consultants (both APCRDA and World Bank‘s) in reaching out to the households and following up periodically on the progress. And third, engage with communities and identify new potential families that may need additional assistance. It is expected that the original number of vulnerable landless families will reduce gradually, as target support measures bridge existing gaps and allow families to access opportunities to improve their livelihoods. At the same time and as the transformation of the Capital City area advances, it is likely that additional landless households become vulnerable and need to be the focus of additional livelihood support measures. The monitoring mechanism in place, building on the present and the penetration of SHGs and of NGO/consultants, will provide a channel to identify on a continuous basis, families that may fall into a vulnerable state. 12. An initial set of measures have been identified in focus groups discussions with members of vulnerable landless families. Participants suggested measures that would be suitable and applicable to their situation. The active participation of households in the identification and implementation of these additional measures is essential. This was strongly emphasized during the focus groups. The roles and expected engagement of the families in these new activities will continue to be stressed as implementation of the measures is rolled out, and as additional initiatives are identified. A list of new targeted measures that is being rolled out as of end of July 2018 is presented below. While they are similar in nature to some of the general initiatives that APCRDA is implementing across the Capital City for all landless laborers, these additional measures are specifically tailored and targeted to the needs of the identified 857 families.Specifically: i. Expanding safety nets for targeted beneficiaries – roughly 4 percent of the households include a family member with a disability, or elderly, who may not be getting all the government assistance that is available and they are entitled to receive. APCRDA will ensure the family receives all the available support to which they are entitled; ii. Skill training for those eligible – roughly 65 percent of the households are either surviving on the APCRDA pension alone, or they are only engaging in very low paying jobs. There are untapped employment opportunities around the Capital City area (e.g. construction, masonry, government and university complexes), which these households are not benefitting from, as was determined during the focus group discussions, primarily because of lack of skills. A program will focus on providing tailored skill trainings and matching employment opportunities in the Capital City area, and focusing on those family members who are able to work.
