Executive Summary

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. Introduction
The Knight Foundation’s “Soul of the Community” research found that three main qualities
attach people to place: 1) Social offerings, such as entertainment venues and places to
meet, 2) Openness, i.e. how welcoming a place is, and 3) The area’s aesthetics, e.g. its
physical beauty and green spaces. City beautification is an important step in creating a
city that feels safe and cohesive. The beautification and restoration of Baburail canal
project will be a visionary of unique urban and waterways project initiated by Narayanganj
City Corporation. Baburail canal was one of the crucial waterway that was an important
route to carry goods and products to the city heart, because it connect Shitalakhya and
Dhaleshwari River through the Narayanganj District. The channel is now disconnected
from the river Shitalakhya at east by filling it with earth. Now the canal is dying day by day
as the illegal occupiers every day construct shops interrupting its water flow, and also
used for solid and liquid waste dumping including sewerage.
Due to increasing demand of Narayanganj city dwellers and to reopen the old waterway of
this canal, Mayor of NCC, Dr. Selina Hayat Ivy, aimed in 2011 to restore the Canals to full
navigation in the interests of conservation, biodiversity and local quality of life, and to use
the restoration as a catalyst for wider social, economic and environmental regeneration in
areas neighboring the canal. Moreover, conservation of the waterway heritage and
ecology by restoration and beautification canals is also important for significant social and
economic regeneration, which will make a substantial contribution to local community
development and quality of life by increasing opportunities for recreational and amenity
use of the canal and their immediate environs.
B. Policy, Legal Administrative and Regulatory Framework
The policy framework and entitlements for the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) are based
on national law, Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance of 1982
(ARIPO) and WB’s (OP4.12) Safeguard Guideline’s on resettlement.
Deputy Commissioner (DC) is empowered to permanently acquire or temporarily acquire

of property and eligible compensate to the Project Affected Person (PAP). DC assesses
the level of compensation, taking into consideration factors such as land transactions in
the locality over the past 12 months. The amendments to the ARIPO in 1993 increased
the amount of the premium for compulsory acquisition from 25 to 50% on the assessed
value of the property. The 1994 amendment provides provision for payment of crop
compensation to tenants. The ARIPO does not cover compensation for loss of wage
income; it also does not cover losses of non-titled persons (Sharecropper, squatters,
encroachers, etc.) aside from crop losses to tenants. However, due to various reasons,
actually legal compensation does not cover the market price of acquired land.
As per WB OP4.12, policy guidelines will have to be ensured for the interest of the project
level and project authority/ requiring body will reinstate the socio economic condition of
project-affected person (PAPs).

C. Social Impact Assessment
Both qualitative and quantitative method were used to assess the social impact of the
project as well as to make a plan for social mitigation of adverse impacts of the project. A
quantitative survey was conducted to collect 384 respondents’ data by using electronic
semi-structure questionnaire. Moreover, for qualitative data 5 FGDs and 13 KIIs also done
to get the details of social impacts and mitigation mechanisms of the project.
Total 349 structure are identified as project affected structure that will be removed for
canal restoration. The most of the structures are business shops (73%); whereas 15
percent of the structures are houses and 9% of the structures are bridge and rest of are
the social organization (3%). Among the structures one-half of are not paved (48%),
whereas 40% of are semi paved structure and only 12% of the structures are paved.
However, 53% structures are found illegally occupied and established in the project area
whereas 26% of structures are situated in NCC place. Moreover, only 18 % structures are
establish on lease areas taken from government and only 3% structures are legally own
by the local people.
It must be admitted first that the findings from the individuals and groups are quite
consistent and excepting a few from among the directly affected and the poor, all were
found highly enthusiastic and confident about successful and timely completion of the
Project. The positive image and absolute authority of the Mayor of NCC appeared to be
instrumental for this. Even those few who had different views and concerns also
expressed their confidence on the Mayor for the final decision.
The respondents recalled that the Baburail canal was quite alive 30-40 years back and
was connected to the two rivers Dhaleswari and Shitalakhya. The respondents also
recalled that the water quality was good; cargo/jute boats and launch used to move
through the channel, they bathed in the water and different river fish were caught by the
fishermen. They also identified the factors/reasons for gradual turning of the canal to the
present state as well as the responsible acts and actors. Less water flow in the rivers,
dumping of solid waste on the canal bank, illegal occupants and encroachers of the area
close to the politicians, lack of dependence on the canal route, and lack of public
awareness and pressure etc. were categorically mentioned by the respondents. However,
it should mention that restoration of waterway is a ultimate dream and would be addressed
through some other large project when water quality of these two rivers will improve.
As mentioned above, only a small segment of the respondents raised some doubts and
concerns about the success of the project. Again, some suggestions were also noted from
the FGDs and KIIs. The researchers feel that some of those are worth mentioning for the
sponsors, planners and implementers of the project to take care in finalizing their design
and implementation plan. However, some of the concerns already solved the concerned
authorities. While the individual reports describe them, the following are some of the
commonly cited ones:
1. Lack of clarity and confusion exist about the authority of the project, especially in
the union Parishad area. Some raised question whether the quality of the work in
two areas would be identical or not.

2. Questions are raise whether the canal will be able to link the two rivers or not? If
not, would there be water in the canal year round? In that case, would not this be
called a successful project?
3. Some poor people probably will lose their earning opportunity and/or residence
due to the project especially in the extended beautification component. How much
they will be compensated for their loss. However, the project will create income
opportunities for poor through creating jobs during construction and after
construction employments in restaurants and fast food shop etc.
4. Lot of hassles and environmental pollution may take place during the
implementation of the project. How much care and attention could be expected
from the implementers on these.
5. Some expressed their concern about generating stated benefit due to poor
management after completion of the project. Some of them demanded involvement
of people in the project maintenance.
6. To keep the canal water free from pollution, the respondents emphasized on the
need for very careful management/discharge of solid waste, waste water and
sewage.
7. Some poor people felt that this type of project would not benefit them. It will help
the landowners of the project neighboring areas and the rich.
8. A few skeptic participants also said that the project might enhance or invite social
crimes like prostitution (return of Taanbazar) and drug addiction in new form.
9. Many of the respondents suggested for establishing good public toilets in suitable
places and some proposed to have drinking water supply for all, as the project will
attract many people.
D. Social Mitigation Plan
To eradicate the adverse impacts of the project and ensuring the resettlement of PARs
and establishing the livelihood of PARs, social mitigation plan would adopted. Both SMP
and Resettlement Plan will be implemented under establishing a resettlement unit (RU)
during construction period and it will be converted to Social Development Unit/CSR
department during post project period. RP will be implemented by hiring an implementing
NGO for 06 months’ period. There will be a provision monitoring, social and livelihood
specialist with RU for the project period. NGO will prepare a monthly and final report
regarding the completion of RP and SMP. Tentative budget of the SMP is 47.90 Million
Taka. RAP will deal only resettlement issues, so SMP will not include any resettlement
issues. The details of RAP is given in a separate report.
During public consultation, all concerned urged to ensure proper compensation on land
and structure and suggested alternative livelihood program for project affected households
(near 400) (PAHs). In case of SMP, some issues have been given priority for the
increasing efforts of improving living standard of project area people. For sustainable
development, livelihood skill is to be generalized among the project area population.
Moreover, Some other social issues are prevalent in the area, viz: gender issues, wage
discrimination, child labor, child and women persecution, moral degradation, addiction,
gender discrimination, unhealthy sanitation, unhealthy harmful food preservation and
distribution in the hotel and restaurant, AIDS & STD diseases among migrants and
construction workers may spread in the area. Training and workshops will also be

arranged to aware about these issues for the community people of the area. In addition,
special capacity building training will be arranged for women of PARs families.
E. Conclusion
Monitoring and evaluation including external evaluation system will be functioned

throughout the project period to ensure project transparency, success and sustainability.
The exposure and/or close interaction of the SIA consultants with senior persons in Vitti,
NCC, LGED, and WB have led them to believe that the project authorities are going to
take adequate measures in addressing almost all the concerns and suggestions in their
design, implementation and post project management plan of the mega project. However,
these are not full proof. The NCC and the beneficiaries at large must remain vigilant to act
timely while problems occur in order to take the pride from such a dream project and
sustain the benefit from it.

Chapter 1: Introduction

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
There are hundreds of rivers and canals in Bangladesh with a large network of navigation
routes. Transportation through waterways has always been a natural, environment friendly
and relatively cheap mode of transport. Inland waterways have become the very important
mode not only for maintaining transport link between various remote parts of the country; it
is a means of transporting export-import cargo as well. Over the decades, the navigability
during dry season in many rivers and canals of the country has been deteriorating
because of morphological processes and for withdrawal of water from the rivers beyond
the border and within the country. Illegal occupation and poor or no maintenance of inland
waterways has further aggravated the navigability.
Narayanganj, the oldest and the most prominent river port of Bangladesh, grew into a
prominent place of trade and commerce, which will become important in generating its
own economic and demographic pull in the southeast district and will be the dominant city
adjacent to Dhaka due to national policy on equal development as well as the economic
growth of the country and due to benefit of proposed Padma bridge & Jatrabari flyover.
Rivers and canals of Narayanganj has been playing a significant role to the sustainable
development of this city. There are a few rivers and rivulets flowing through the district.
Among those the Shitalakhya, the Dhaleshwari, the Buriganga, the Balu and the Meghna
are important. Those are non-tidal and navigable throughout the year. They have been
playing a vital role in the economy of the district as they facilitate irrigation, drainage, and
water supply of the area. Among them all, Baburail canal was one of the crucial waterway
once that was an important route to carry goods and products to the city heart, because it
connect Shitalakhya and Dhaleshwari river through the Narayanganj District. The canal is
now disconnected from the river Shitalakhya at east by filling it with earth. Now the canal
is dying day by day as the illegal occupiers every day construct shops interrupting its
water flow, and also used for solid and liquid waste dumping including sewerage.
Due to increasing demand of Narayanganj city dwellers and to reopen the old waterway of
this canal, Mayor of NCC, Dr. Selina Hayat Ivy, aims in 2011 is to restore the Canals to full
navigation in the interests of conservation, biodiversity and local quality of life, and to use
the restoration as a catalyst for wider social, economic and environmental regeneration in
areas neighboring the canal. Moreover, conservation of the waterway heritage and
ecology by restoration and beautification canals is also important for significant social and
economic regeneration, which will make a substantial contribution to local community
development and quality of life by increasing opportunities for recreational and amenity
use of the canal and their immediate environs. In addition, public spaces that are clean,
that have places to sit down, and that are close to trees, flowers and outdoor art make us
feel happier, relaxed and safer. Beautification enhancements provide benefits for
businesses, residents and tourists. Research has demonstrated that businesses that are
located in areas with beautification elements have higher foot traffic and sales.

1.2 Project Introduction

Narayanganj city is a historical place of the country. The city is of great importance from
the commercial & industrial point of view. Several rivers are there in and around the city
namely the Shitalakhya, the Balu, the Dhaleshwari and the Buriganga rivers. There are
several internal canals also in it. As such, it has a unique natural landscaping. The River
Shitalakhya bisects the city into two parts and it is flowing through the elongated direction
of it and the river Dhaleshwari is flowing at the western part of the city corporation. The
Buriganga and the Balu are contributing the Dhaleshwari and the Shitalakhya respectively
from the up. Most of the internal canals have been encroached by the nearby habitants
and have become too much polluted because of the sewage disposal and to some extent
by the industrial pollutants. It has become very essential for restoration of all these canals
to get rid of further environmental degradation and to make the city a beautiful and
habitable one.
Aside from the obvious aesthetic benefits, studies indicate that beautification, including
landscaping of waterbody, can help drivers reduce stress, frustration, and aggression,
while helping maintain safe environment. Implementing simple, cost‐effective
beautification projects can enhance communities and improve quality of life for residents
and travelers. The proposed Baburail Canal Beautification and Restoration Project is an
ambitious plan at present to restore to full navigation of two historic inland waterways, the
Shitalakhya-Dhaleshwari River connecting Canal. The existing Baburail canal with most of
its part filled up with earth, dumping garbage and sewage pit, which cause nuisance and
foul odors. There are also four other canals carries household wastewater and rainwater
enter into the Baburail canal.
Finally, all the wastewater carries through Baburail canal and discharge to the
Dhaleshwari River. At present NCC intend and taken initiative to restore the Baburail canal
only connecting Shitalakhya and Dhaleshwari River. Other canals also restore
subsequently. However, the canal connection with the two rivers without cleaning its water
will spoil the aim of the project and will not improvement of the environment and quality of
life of the area. Shitalakhya and Dhaleshwari river water is highly contaminated with huge
volume of industrial waste and the water quality is degrading day by day. At this moment,
the canal water should be protected from the contaminated river water by installing sluice
gate at the both end of the river. In future when both of the river water will be cleaned and
become non-contaminated, then the sluice gates can be opened for flow. The canal
restoration and beautification along with appropriate conservation of the environment as
well as ensuring the recreation and amusement for all age group of city dwellers.

1.4 Need for Social Impact Assessment

Social Impact Assessment includes the processes of analyzing, monitoring and managing
the intended and unintended social consequences, both positive and negative, of planned
interventions (policies, programs, plans, projects) and any social change processes
invoked by those interventions. Its primary purpose is to bring about a more sustainable
and equitable biophysical and human environment.
The objective of SIA is to ensure that development maximizes its benefits and minimizes
its costs, especially those costs borne by people (including those in other places and in
the future). Costs and benefits may not be measurable or quantifiable and are often not
adequately taken into account by decision-makers, regulatory authorities and developers.
By identifying impacts in advance: (1) better decisions can be made about which
interventions should proceed and how they should proceed; and (2) mitigation measures
can be implemented to minimize the harm and maximize the benefits from a specific
planned intervention or related activity.
SIA also helped in enhancing the project benefits to poor and vulnerable people while
minimizing or mitigating concerns, risks and adverse impacts. Further, as the project
implementation entails a large number other social issues such as influx of labor during
construction and others, a systematic assessment provided the basis to prepare a Social
Management Plan.
1.5 Objectives of the Study

The main objective of the study is to ensure that the project addresses the adverse
impacts on the livelihood of the people and that nobody is left worse off after implementing

RAP and those affected have access to project benefits, both during project construction
as well as operation. Specifically, the objectives of the study are:
1. To carry out a socio-economic, cultural and political/institutional analysis to identify

the project stakeholders and social issues associated with the project;
2. To assess the extent of asset loss and undertake the census of potential project
affected people;
3. To identify likely occurrence of STD and HIV/AIDS resulting from the influx of
outside laborers and others and develop a strategy to reduce their incidence; and
4. To develop a consultation framework for participatory planning and implementation
of proposed mitigation plan.
1.6 Scope of SIA Study

a) The study began with the identification of social issues and stakeholders and
communities, including socially and economically disadvantaged communities. The
focus of SIA was on identifying local population likely to be affected by the project
either directly or indirectly and undertake census survey.
b) The scope of the study in particular included the following:
c) Identifying key social issues associated with the proposed project and specifies the
project’s social development outcomes;
d) Assessing potential social and economic impacts both during the construction
phase and in the operation phase;
e) Reviewing policies, regulations and other provisions that related to resettlement
and rehabilitation of project affected people and other social issues;
f) Social screening of various project components and likely impacts in terms of land
taking (loss of houses, livelihood, etc.), and resultant involuntary resettlement and
provide inputs (in terms of magnitude of impacts and likely costs for mitigation) in
preparing appropriate mitigation plans;
g) Screen the social development issues in the project area and its vicinity and design
the social services that may be provided by the project in order to improve the
quality of life and achieve the projects economic and social goals;
h) Update the profile of the population and available infrastructure facilities for
services in the project affected area;
i) Based on the assessment of potential social and economic impacts establish
criteria that will assist in the formulation of strategies; to the extent possible
maximize project benefits to the local population and minimize adverse impacts of
the project interventions on the affected communities;
j) Inform, consult and carry out dialogues with the project stakeholders on matters
relating to project design, objectives, and implementation and provide specific
recommendations to avoid/minimize high social risks;
k) Screen the social development issues in the project area and its vicinity and
accordingly design the social services that have to be provided by the project in
order to improve the quality of life;
l) Assess the impact of influx of construction workers and others (both during civil
works and during operation of the project) on the incidence of HIV/AIDS and other
diseases and develop a strategy to control them.

techniques. The study was conducted in two phases.
Figure 3: Location of the Proposed Project
Source: Modified by Consultants

2.1 Phase – I: Pre Survey Activities
2.1.1 Collection and Review of Project Literature

This phase intends to familiarize with the concerned and important stakeholders to identify
and collect the available literature and to scope the activities. This involved two pronged
approach (a) discussions with Project Implementing authorities and other concerned. b)
Collection of available relevant project literature. Consultations were held with concerned
revenue officials to establish the ownership of land. Literature review and consultations
formed the basis for identification of key stakeholders.
2.1.2 Rapid Reconnaissance Survey to Familiarize Field

Activities
Following to the review and consultations, rapid preliminary field visits were conducted as
part of ground trothing exercise. This provided the basis for field research preparation and
helped in testing the questionnaires and checklists.
2.1.3 Scoping and other Pre Survey Activities

Both the review and rapid reconnaissance survey helped in finalizing the study
instruments and inception report detailing the final methodology and work plan.
2.2 Phase II: Survey Activities
2.2.1 Socio-economic Household Survey of Project Affected

Area
2.2.1.1 Survey design and Sample Size
A total 384 respondent’s survey was done within the 0.5 km (See Figure:4) distance from
the bank of Baburail canal. At first, the holding numbers of the HHs were collected, and
then respondents were selected randomly from the randomly selected HHs. The sample
size was calculated by using Rao soft sample size calculator, where margin of error was
5%, confidence interval was 95%, population Narayanganj city corporation was 7,09,381
(source: www.ncc.org.bd) and response distribution was 50%. The quantitative data were
collected electronically using semi-structured questionnaire.
The survey has assessed the impacts of the project, the socio-economic conditions, and
living standards of affected persons due to the project implementation. The following were
collected during the survey:

 Socio economic conditions of the affected persons

 Family structure and number of family members
 Literacy levels and health
 Occupation type and income levels
 Loss of immovable assets due to the project by type and degree of loss
 Accessibility to the community resources
 Perceived income restoration measures
 Willingness to participate in the project
 Possible positive impacts of project
 Possible adverse impacts of the project etc.

2.2.1.2 Data editing, coding and Data processing
The survey data was downloaded from the server instantly after the survey was completed
to get the first database. After coding the open-ended responses, and doing a rigorous
checking by trained staff members in the office, the clean database was prepared. The
study team members then processed the data to get the total set of tables.
2.2.1.3 Analytical approach
The collected data was tabulated and analyzed using quantitative technique
disaggregated by district, PNGO, nature of beneficiary (primary Vs. secondary) and
gender of the respondents by using, SPSS 22, Microsoft Excel 2016 and Windows Visio
2016 software.
2.2.1.4 Ethical Issues, Privacy and Confidentiality
The respondents were informed clearly that the information they provided during the
interview would be kept strictly confidential. The interview was held under conditions

where in the respondent felt most comfortable in responding openly. In addition, their
identity was not linked to the study at any point of time or stages of the study. The study
registered oral consent from all interviewees.
2.2 Qualitative Data Collection

Five FGDs and thirteen KIIs were conducted in the project catchment area (half a km on
both sides of the Baburail canal) to have increased understanding of the social impacts
due to the Project over the questionnaire survey findings, which have been conducted
among 384 households in the same area. The FGDs were conducted among male &
female (3+2), NCC & UP area (3+2) and low & moderate-income residents (3+2). The KIIs
were conducted among ward councilor, NGO manager, CBO leader, journalist, teachers,
businessperson, religious leaders, cultural leaders etc. Detail checklists for FGD and KII
were developed in Bangla. Four skilled and qualified field researchers were collect the
qualitative data. Digital recorders were used in conducting KIIs and in-depth interviews
whenever it is possible; otherwise, detail notes had been kept. Digitally recorded data
were transcribed and coded for analysis.
2.3 Review of Legal Policy Provisions and Implementation

Capacity
Relevant national and state legislations and regulations were reviewed. To study
implementation arrangements and its capacity in delivering the R&R services verification
of these arrangements and in-depth interviews with authorities were conducted.

Social Impact Assessment of Baburail Canal Restoration Project
Chapter 3: Legal and Policy Frame Work

CHAPTER 3: LEGAL AND POLICY FRAMEWORK

3.1 National Legislation
The following is the review of the relevant national legislation, regulatory and policy
instrument and some international ones. The proponent of the project will conduct its
infrastructural and operational activities in compliance with applicable Bangladeshi and
international legislation and agreements. A comprehensive review of the legal and
institutional framework within which the environmental and social assessment is to be
carried out.
3.1.1 Constitutional Provisions

The fundamental rights under the Constitution indicate the general guidelines for a policy
on resettlement/rehabilitation of citizens adversely affected (whatever be the mechanism)
due to any activity of the State. Article 40 of the constitution states categorically that every
citizen has the right to practice any lawful occupation which implies that anything impeding
such right (a) should not be done or (b) there should be supplementary measures to
compensate the losses faced by the citizen. Resettlement and rehabilitation of adversely
affected people due to infrastructure projects very clearly falls within this requirement for
supplementary measures. However, as per Article 42, sub-clause 2, no law with provision
of compensation for acquisition of land can be challenged in a court on the ground that
such compensation has been inadequate. However, under World Bank OP 4.12
Involuntary Resettlement, every affected person will have access to a project specific
Grievance Redress Mechanism for dispute resolution before the matter moved to the
courts. The project proponents as well as the Bank will review complaints, the resolution
process and the outcome. Until the dispute is resolved the funds for the disputed asset
must be held in an escrow account (top-up payments due from the project agency can be
held until the project closes; the amount placed with the DC may be held for 10 years or
more if necessary).
3.1.2 The Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property

Ordinance, 1982
The policy framework and entitlements for the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) are based
on national law, Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance of
1982(ARIPO) and WB’s (OP4.12) Safeguard Guideline’s on resettlement.
Deputy Commissioner (DC) is empowered to permanently acquire or temporarily acquire

of property and eligible compensate to the Project Affected Person (PAP). DC assesses
the level of compensation, taking into consideration factors such as land transactions in
the locality over the past 12 months. The amendments to the ARIPO in 1993 increased
the amount of the premium for compulsory acquisition from 25 to 50% on the assessed
value of the property. The 1994 amendment provides provision for payment of crop
compensation to tenants. The ARIPO does not cover compensation for loss of wage

income; it also does not cover losses of non-titled persons (Sharecropper, squatters,
encroachers, etc.) aside from crop losses to tenants. However, due to various reasons,
actually legal compensation does not cover the market price of acquired land.
The Deputy Commissioner (DC) processes land acquisition under the Ordinance and pays
compensation to the legal owners of the acquired land. The Ministry of Lands (MOL) is
authorized to deal with land acquisition through the DCs. Khash (government owned land)
lands should be acquired first when a project acquires both Khash and private land. If a
project acquires only Khash, the land will be transferred through an inter-ministerial
meeting following the preparation of acquisition proposal submitted to Deputy
Commissioner (DC) or Ministry of Land (MOL).
3.1.3 Constitution Right of the Small Ethnic Communities

There is no special commitment regarding small ethnic communities. However, under
Article-19 of constitution declares quality of opportunity of the all citizen of the country.
Under the article-9, (1) the state shall endeavor to ensure equality of opportunity to all
citizens; (2) The state shall adopt effective measures to remove social and economic
inequality between man and man to ensure the equitable distribution of wealth among
citizens, and of opportunities in order to attain a uniform level economic development
throughout the republic. This section is a safety ethnic community.
3.1.4 Other Relevant Acts, Laws and Rules in Bangladesh

Other legislation relevant to the proposed Project are listed below:
Water Act 2013 is based on the National Water Policy, and designed for integrated
development, management, extraction, distribution, usage, protection and conservation of
water resources in Bangladesh. The project activities will influence the water quality
positively.
Protection and Conservation of Fish Act (1950) provides power to the government to make
and apply rules to protect fisheries; prohibit or regulate erection and use of fixed engines;
and construction of temporary or permanent weirs, dams, bunds, embankments and other
structures. The Act prohibits destruction of fish by explosives, guns, and bows in inland or
coastal areas; and destruction of fish by poisoning, pollution, or effluents. The Act
prescribes the seasons during which fishing is allowed, prohibits fishing during spawning
periods, and specifies officials having authority to detect breaches of this Act.
The Bangladesh Labor Act, 2006 provides the guidance of employer’s extent of
responsibility and workmen’s extent of right to get compensation in case of injury by
accident while working.
Inland Shipping Ordinance 1976 and Inland Shipping (Amendment) Act 1990 deals with
the administration, registration, competency and pollution control, etc., of inland water
transport.

The Government of Bangladesh under MOL has prepared a national policy on involuntary
resettlement though formally not accepted, which sets out that the rights of those
displaced by development projects shall be fully respected, and persons being displaced
shall be treated with dignity and assisted in such a way that safeguards their welfare and
livelihoods irrespective of title, non-title, gender, and ethnicity. The Policy on involuntary
resettlement recognizes that:
 All those displaced involuntarily by projects impacts like eviction must be resettled
and rehabilitated in a productive and sustainable manner. People who are resettled
must be able, through their own efforts and/or with support as may be required, to
restore or improve upon their level of living within a reasonable period, at least pre
project condition.
 Cash compensation shall be paid in development projects at replacement value to
those displaced for land and other assets acquired based on established prior
ownership and/or user rights. In addition to cash compensation and resettlement, a
benefit sharing will be considered where feasible. iv. Cultural and customary rights
of people displaced by projects are to be protected, particularly those belonging to
Adivasi’s (indigenous people) and ethnic minorities.
 Gender equality and equity in all stages and processes of resettlement and
rehabilitation will be fully respected.
 Displaced persons will be informed and consulted in a transparent manner,
including formal disclosure of project impacts and mitigation measures.
 Vulnerable groups, including landless, poor women headed households, physically
challenged people, elderly and those falling below the nationally defined poverty
line (by the government) displaced by project impacts, are entitled to additional
benefits and assistance in a manner that addresses their specific needs related to
socio-economic vulnerability.
 Similarly, displaced persons and/or businesses on government-leased land will be
eligible for compensation for loss of access to land and sites.
 The right to compensation, resettlement and livelihood restoration shall not lapse
or end with the conclusion of implementation of a project and shall remain an
obligation of the owner of the project until fulfilled even beyond project completion.
The draft Policy was submitted to the Government in November 2007. It has been
approved by the Ministry of Land on 01 January 2008 and is placed before the Cabinet
later in February 2008. After cabinet approval, the Government will undertake further work
towards legislative changes to safeguard resettlement rights by law.
3.2 Applicable World Bank Safeguards

As per WB OP4.12, policy guidelines will have to be ensured for the interest of the project
level and project authority/ requiring body will reinstate the socio economic condition of
project-affected person (PAPs).
 Involuntary resettlement should be avoided where feasible, or minimized, exploring

all viable alternative project designs

 Where it is not feasible to avoid resettlement, resettlement activities should be

conceived and executed as sustainable development programs, providing
sufficient investment resources to enable the persons displaced by the project to
share in project benefits. Displaced persons should be meaningfully consulted and
should have opportunities to participate in planning and implementing resettlement
programs.
 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.

4.2.1 Land Requirement and Acquisition

The proposed Baburail Canal Restoration project, the land is needed for using in different
purposes. The acquisition of land will have a drastic impact on the livelihood of the
community people. In most cases, it will make the people homeless, unemployed and also
landless. Every effort has been made to keep the land requirements away from the human
resettlement and private property. After the planning, the amount of land requirement is
minimum. Moreover, the acquisition of the private land was avoided in the restoration of
the project.
4.2.2 Impact on Installations

Due to acquisition of land, 349 Installations are likely to be damaged at NCC and Union
Parishad. Owners of all identified properties are the legal titleholders. In here, 149
structures were belong to Baburail Mosque to Munshiganj Highway whereas 74 structures
were belong to Heart Foundation to Baburail Mosque,71 structures were belong to Rk
Mitra road, 48 structures were belong to Mondol para and 7 structures were belong to
Taanbazar Pool.
The most 73 % of the installation were business organization where as 15% of the
installation were house. Only 9% of the installation were bridge and the lowest 3% of the
installation were social organization. Moreover, 48% of the building were not paved in the
affected structures whereas 40% of the building were semi paved and 12% of the building
were not paved.

4.2.3 Impacts on Population

The total people of the PARs of the area is 1795. Among them, 705 were females, 652

Chapter 6: Institutional and

Implementation Structure

CHAPTER 6: INSTITUTIONAL AND

IMPLEMENTATION STRUCTURE
6.1 Institution Related to Policy, Planning, M&E of the
Project
In order to implement Social management, NCC needs a stronger institutional
management unit. So that, the existing institutional arrangement of NCC needs to be
reviewed.
The Project Implementation Unit (PIU) that will be established within NCC will lead the
Project implementation. The PIU will be responsible for procurement of consultants for
carrying out the SIA. The PIU will be headed by the Project Director (PD). The PIU will
consists of an Environment and Social (E&S) monitoring Cell with qualified staff. This E&S
Cell will assist the PIU on issues related to environmental and social management and
oversee the Construction Supervision Consultant (CSC) and contractors and will compile
quarterly monitoring reports on SMP compliance, to be sent to the Project Director and
also shared with the World Bank, throughout the construction period. The E&S Cell will
also provide trainings to the NCC field personnel responsible for monitoring of social
compliance during both construction and O&M phases of the project. In addition, NCC will
recruit a SMP Implementation Specialist or hire an NGO in the entire proposed NCC
project, who will be responsible for overseeing the social mitigation measures during
operation and maintenance period. Moreover, the project authority will establish RU during
construction period and it will be converted to a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) /
Social Development Cell during post construction period for mitigating future social and
resettlement impact including any pending resettlement issues, headed by a Deputy
Director as Project Manager (PM) under the guidance of Project Director (PD).
The E&S Cell will have adequate numbers of environmental and social
scientists/specialists and maintain coordination and liaison with CSC for effective SMP
implementation. Similarly, the CSC will also have environmental and social monitors who
will supervise and monitor the contractors for effective SMP implementation. The
contractors in turn will also have supervisors who will ensure SMP implementation during
construction activities and will assign to develop necessary detailed SMP plans as per this
SMP, and oversee their implementation during construction.
The PIU will also engage an independent organization to carry out external monitoring
and evaluation on implementation of RAP; however, this component will not involve
monitoring and evaluation of EMP due to limited nature of impacts. The roles and
responsibilities of PIU and its consultants are presented in Table 8.

Chapter 7: Stakeholder Analysis

CHAPTER 7: STAKEHOLDER ANALYSIS

7.1 Introduction
During the development of PP and other documents, meetings and consultations with the
public had already taken place to disseminate information on the project activities among
the project-affected peoples (PAPs) and other stakeholders of this project. The
consultation approach was based on a combination of Formal and Informal meetings,
Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), Key Informant Interview (KII) with the local peoples,
local elite and businessperson, teachers, women group, local NGOs, Narayanganj Press
Club, Ward Councilors and other Govt. organizations. The formal meetings were held
through prior notice, appointment and invitation including all the PAPs and households,
district administration, local administration and other stakeholders in the affected area.
The basis for selecting the stakeholders was based on the following criteria:
 Identifying the project affected people

 Identify the government agencies connected with the project
 Identify local elites and academicians for their view on the project
 Identify the closed households or commercial institutions of the project site, make
them aware about the impacts of the project, and noted their concerns and
reporting.
 Identify the local NGOs working in the area
One large public consultation meeting, which included affected peoples, representatives
from the project areas, district and local administration, as well as other community
peoples including prominent locals, lawyers, journalists, academicians and Narayanganj
City Corporation (NCC), was held in NCC auditorium on 11 April 2017. Meeting minutes
of the consultation with the stakeholders are shown in the later part of the annexure.
7.2 Stakeholders at Different Levels

This section presents the main stakeholders of the project area. NCC, LGED and DWDB
are the main development stakeholders. Political organizations are also playing a vital role
as a major part of stakeholders. Whether upholding security, law enforcement agencies,
Narayanganj press club, Narayanganj motor labor union are correspondingly one of the
imperative stakeholders.

Bangladesh. They played leading role to achieve the independence of Bangladesh,
presently it is the country’s governing political party. Honorable prime minister of
Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina is the chief leader of the ruling party. However, as the ruling
party and the highest decision making authority (government) of the state, Bangladesh
Awami League can play a vital role in the project. The local AL subdivision can watch after
or facilitate good governance through detailed participation, visible precision, contestation,
responsibility and innovation for the best implementation and outcome of the project.
Moreover, monitoring the opposite political party should be another concern.
Bangladesh Jatiya Party (BJP): Bangladesh Jatiya Party (BJP) is the present opposition
party of Bangladesh. Currently Rowshan Ershad is the opposition leader and Hossain

should speak as an alternative of government. They would give total support to
accomplish this project flawlessly. However, their role is very important for the project
expansion. They will give total sustenance for keeping decent atmosphere in the project
area.
Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP): Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is another

major political party of Bangladesh. BNP should speak is in the target project territory and
should be in charge of challenging the strategies of the government's policies and creating
different arrangements where suitable or relevant to offer. However, most importantly they
should not make or support any sort of political unrest and make the peaceful community
worsen in the project area.
Regional Political Parties including Leftist: Other political parties should be concerned
about the big picture and what is happening for the greater development. Helping by
providing with the best support and with the relevant recommendation for the project.

nine wards (1 to 9) have been announced as wards 1 to 9 of NCC. Many industry &
garments factory stand here and day-by-day it is increasing rapidly because of
Narayanganj city is very close to the capital city of Dhaka. NCC will play the leading role to
implement the project in cooperation with LGED.

capacity building of the stakeholders. LGED will play the monitoring, implementation and
supervision role with NCC in this project.

organization against any kind of environmental degradation, is trying to create a broad-
based citizen’s movement for protection and progress of environment in Bangladesh.

Local NGOs play a very crucial character to implement this project. The local NGOs of
Narayanganj would support to demonstrate of the project plan through relationship
building with people. Nearby local elites and businessperson would no damage and
prescribe important recommendations. On the other hand, grassroots communities can
build appreciative of the project plan, facilitate the project, and complain appropriately to
the authority.

8.4: Major Risks and Assumptions
8.4.1 Risks
Major risks of the present project are the land acquisition and livelihood loss of the project
affected people and livelihood restoration of the project-affected person. Other risk is solid
waste and liquid waste management of the project area. So, this issue should be handled
carefully.
8.4.2 Assumptions
In many cases, people are unable to regain business or livelihoods due to the price hike of
land and business place and discontinuation of livelihoods may occur due to the project.
On the other hand, they have to spent illegal money for collecting compensation from NCC
office. Many PAPs, due to lack of up to date legal document are failed to collect money.
Therefore, this is very important to consider these factors very seriously so that the PARs
are getting enough space for restoration their livelihoods.
8.4.3 Significance of Risk Assumptions

In recent years, due to several projects, people were victimized and violently evicted
against land acquisition and for proper compensation. In addition, they straggle a lot to
start a new jobs. Therefore, this is very important to reinstate PAPs in previous socio
economic condition as well as to ensure their livelihoods.

Significance and Management

CHAPTER 9: OVERALL ISSUES OF

SIGNIFICANCE AND MANAGEMENT
9.1 Issues of Significance
In the following sections significant social and project related issues have been discussed
regarding restoration of Baburail canal.
Main issues of the significance are as follows:
• Land Acquisition
• Compensation at the rate of full replacement cost
• Livelihood restoration of project affected persons

due to this project.
9.2.3 Inclusion and Equity

In preparing SMP and RAP, inclusion of all sorts of people, community, PAPs and
stakeholders are given importance. Equity and justice has given priority.
9.2.4 Gender Minorities /Vulnerabilities

Bangladesh is a highly patriarchal society. For this fact, the men control over labor, choice
of marriage partner, income, assets and affairs of livelihood. There is a strong cultural
preference for males over females in the male dominated scenario of Bangladesh, which
exacerbates an imbalance society. From fathers to husbands to sons, women are
dependent on men throughout their lives. Moreover, gender studies focus on women. It
happens because the position of women in the society is unfavorable in every aspect.
Women are more vulnerable than men because of their lack of control over the means of
production, restricted mobility, limited facilities for education and jobs. It is not only poverty
that plays a hand in gender inequities but also the intricate connection of social and
cultural influence the practices. Gender inequities not only effects on girls and women but
also on boys and men.
9.2.4.1 Present Women Status in the Project Area
Project area of Baburail Canal is not different from this situation. During census and field
survey of the project area, no any female headed and handicapped people are identified
from the affected people. In the project area women of both Muslim and Hindu community
are living in a conservative society. A majority of women in the surrounding project area
(not exactly acquired area) are housewives from poor community people. Their
educational levels are comparatively low and so, access to technical skills education is
constrained by poverty and other mobility related issues. Most of the women live in their
husbands’ houses and are exclusively dependent on cash incomes generated by the
family from employment. Only a few families own Land and supplementary incomes from
agricultural activities are limited. Their knowledge and awareness on external issues such
as HIV/AIDS is quite remote. Their vulnerabilities are reasonably high in physical and
sexual abuse, domestic violence and other forms of insecurities.
9.2.4.2 Possible areas of Women Involvement
The following proposals are made to involve Women at various levels of the Project.
Women can work as managers during project implementation. The project can hire a local
NGO to implement the RAP. It is proposed that NGO must fulfill the following conditions:
Vitti Sthapati Brindo Ltd.

 The NGO must propose at least one women as part of the key personnel; the
proposed Women Key Person shall be available to work at site at least 50% of
duration as the contract.
 The NGO will depute a technical/ professional team to work at the site, which will
consist at last 30% of Women members. Junior support Personnel and
administrative staff will not have considered as technical/ Professional.
 Income generating program will be designed to ensure women a reliable income
by engaging in activities. Taking into account the availability of resources and the
type of enterprises that they are already engaged in.
 Capacity enhancing assistance will be provided for improving the access of
women to skills training for off-farm employment such as tailoring, weaving,
cutting, embroidery, handicaps’, hair cutting, beautification and processing of
locally produced products.
 Social awareness campaigns and training opportunities will be organized to
increase Women’s in regulation into social and economic mainstream.
 Project will strength Women’s community based and non-governmental
organizations by providing training and advisory supports once during construction
period.
 Prepare the skill development Plan for the women.
 Develop monitoring and evaluation system for the gender development activities.
 Provide support for getting loan from financial institutions.
 Preparing a periodical report and activities undertaken for the welfare of Women.
9.2.4.3 Gender Action Plan
The gender action plan will be mainstreaming some important issues from national to
grass root level. This action plan will be eliminating gender inequities. In the context of
present situation, the government as well as the civil society can play vital roles regarding
women development. Some of the following measures are:
 Offering high level education

 Increasing women employment
 Involving them in active politics and social activities
 Arranging social protection programs
 Generating awareness among parents
 Giving scholarships to the girls
 Spreading awareness against child abuse and violence
 Stopping sex identification and abortions
 Social welfare developments by politicians
 Promoting campaign through NGOs to eradicate Gender Inequality
 Increasing women's share of seats in National Parliament and local government
bodies
 Combat violence against children, adolescences and women
 Guarantee women's and girls’ property and inheritance rights
 Guarantee reproductive health and rights

The overall objective of Gender Action Plan (GAP) can improve the wellbeing of women
who are living in the proposed project areas. The three specific objectives of GAP are
given below:
 To avoid adverse impacts on women around the project area.

 To facilitate economic benefits to women during project construction period.
 To support the processes of improving the socio-economic conditions of women.
The first objectives call for exploring the strategies and mechanisms for avoiding or
minimizing adverse effects and impacts of project constructions on the properties,
livelihoods of women and their families. Furthermore, it focuses on adopting appropriate
measures to avoid any harmful effects on women and girls during project construction
period such as insecurities and harassments from construction workers, disturbances to
routine life, and damages to their properties and livelihoods.
The second objective endeavors to identify and provide economic benefits to women and
their families during project construction period. Employment opportunities for women
would be limited in project construction work as such work is largely male-centered in
Bangladesh. In addition, the social cultural norms in Bangladesh may not prescribe
women engaging in construction work along with men in many cases. However, women of
poor families may opt for such employment in the construction work as the work
opportunities available. Employment opportunities for male members from the poor and
vulnerable families could also be provide. It will help to generate incomes by those
employees, which will indirectly benefit the female members of their families.
Opportunities for women to run small tea stalls or selling food parcels can also be
promoted.
The third objective focuses on networking with development agencies, other industrial and
commercial establishments in the area. It will persuade them to implement suitable
programs and activities that enhance the socio-economic conditions of women, girls and
their families. In brief, NCC will ensure following action during construction period for
women.
 Engage affected and vulnerable women in construction work if they are interested.
 Include 25% women as construction workers.
 Separate sheds for women workers by ensuring their privacy and security.
 Separate hygienic and safe toilet facilities inside the camp and construction sites.
 Provide working dress with helmet, gumboot for workers,
 Maintain same wage rate for man and woman.
 Provide healthy food facilities near working site with subsidized rate.
 Ensure crest for women worker with child near camp and working sites.
 Ensure first Aid facilities and mobile hospitals near working site in emergency
cases.
 Provide transport between working sites and camps.
 Not engage women labor at night
 Ensure safe drinking water.
 Build awareness about STD diseases, HIV/AIDS.
 Build awareness against child and women trafficking and drug abuse.
 Ensure payment through bank.

No indigenous people or person with disability was identified as project affected person.
Therefore, no need for Indigenous people plans.

9.4 Stakeholders Engagement

Stakeholder engagement is the process by which an organization involves people who
may be affected by the decisions it makes or can influence the implementation of its
decisions. They may support or oppose the decisions, be influential in the organization or
within the community in which it operates, hold relevant official positions or be affected in
the long term.
Stakeholder engagement is a key part of corporate social responsibility (CSR) companies

engages their stakeholders in dialogue to find out what social and environmental issues
matter most to them about their performance in order to improve decision-making and
accountability. Engaging stakeholders is a requirement of the Global Reporting Initiative, a
network-based organization with sustainability reporting framework that is widely used
around the world.
Involving stakeholders in decision-making processes is not confined corporate social

responsibility (CSR) processes. It's a tool used by mature private and public sector
organizations, especially when they want to develop understanding and agree to solutions
on complex issues or issues of concern.
An underlying principle of stakeholder engagement is that stakeholders have the chance

to influence the decision-making process. This differentiates stakeholder engagement
from communications processes that seek to issue a message or influence groups to
agree with a decision that is already made.
"Stakeholder Engagement: A Road map to meaningful engagement" describes seven

core values for the practices of gaining meaningful participation of which perhaps the
three most critical are:
 Stakeholders should have a say in decisions about actions that could affect their
lives or essential environment for life.
 Stakeholder participation includes the promise that stakeholders’ contribution will
influence the decision
 Stakeholder participation seeks input from participants in designing how they
participate
The practitioners in stakeholder engagement are often businesses, non-governmental

Organization (NGOs), labor organizations, trade and industry organizations, governments,
and financial institutions.
As a part of stakeholder’s engagement, SMP and RAP has a proposal of engagement

NGO during implementing period and public consultation during feasibility stage and
PAPs will have to engage in construction and lump sum budget for social development of
community for future development and risk management of social issues.

9.5 Transparency and Accountability

The success of project work depends on the ability of all affected parties to express their
concerns freely. That is why WB has high standards of stakeholder engagement—to
ensure that clients achieve the best possible development outcomes. Bank’s country
strategies and projects are based on dialogue with stakeholders, including civil society.
World Bank Group President, Jim Yong Kim, has committed to incorporate beneficiary
feedback in 100 percent of World Bank financed projects by 2018. Therefore, the ability to
help eliminate poverty and improve livelihoods would be severely compromised without
space for civil society to help shape development in their countries.
Environmental and social safeguard policies are designed to prevent and mitigate harm to
people and the environment because of Bank Group-supported operations. Those who
feel they have been negatively affected by WBG projects have access to robust and
independent grievance mechanisms and to bodies, such as the World Bank Inspection
Panel and the IFC Compliance Advisor/Ombudsman, able to hold WBG institutions to
account. Therefore, the ability to help eliminate poverty and improve livelihoods would be
severely compromised without space for civil society to help shape development in their
countries. When allegations of reprisal are brought to our attention, we work within the
scope of our mandate with appropriate parties to try to address them. Where links
between reprisals and WBG-financed projects can be established, Bank has taken action
as documented by past cases and will continue to do so.
World Bank has strong policies and mechanisms that address many concerns raised by
human rights advocacy groups and civil society, and Bank is open to dialogue on
improvements and values the perspectives these groups bring. Bank will continue to work
with them towards our shared goal of strengthening protections for people in the countries
in where Bank work. Regarding the above context, SMP and RAP have proposal of
raising participatory approach for project-affected person and concerned stakeholders.
The objectives of the Accountability Mechanism will be to provide an independent and

effective forum for people adversely affected by WB-assisted projects to voice their
concerns and seek solutions to their problems, and to request compliance review of the
alleged noncompliance by WB with its operational policies and procedures that may have
caused, or is likely to cause, them direct and material harm. As a WB Accountability
Mechanism (AM), project transparency, an independent forum for people adversely
affected by WB assisted projects where they can voice their concerns and seek solutions
to their problems and request a review of alleged noncompliance by WB with its
operational policies and procedures. They are:
 Two or more adversely affected people

 AP authorize representative
 NGO – Board members
 Write a letter/ email/ fax in any official or national language to
 Complaint Receiving Officer at WB HQ and Resident Mission office

Any time during project’s life one can complain but no more than 2 years after project
closing date
The World Bank Group has several accountability mechanisms designed to enable civil
society and people to voice their concerns regarding projects supported by the Bank.
 A cornerstone of our work on investment projects is helping to ensure strong

protections for the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people and for the
environment. The World Bank’s current policies – often called “safeguards” –
require borrowing governments to address certain environmental and social risks
in order to receive Bank funding for development projects.
 The World Bank is in the process of reviewing, updating and strengthening its
environmental and social safeguards. The proposed framework emphasizes the
Bank’s commitment to core values, including respect for individual dignity,
transparency, accountability, consultation, participation, and non-discrimination.
 The World Bank has also just introduced a new Grievance Redress Service
(GRS), to address complaints related to World Bank projects. Through this service,
individuals and communities that may be directly and adversely affected by a
World Bank-financed project can bring their concerns directly to the attention of
World Bank management. The GRS ensures that complaints are being promptly
reviewed and addressed by the responsible units in the World Bank. The objective
is to make the World Bank more accessible for project-affected communities and
to help ensure faster and better resolution of project-related complaints.
 The Inspection Panel (IPN) is the Bank’s independent accountability mechanism
for people and communities who believe that they have been, or are likely to be
adversely affected by a World Bank-funded project.
 However, it is suggested for setting up an ‘independent monitoring panel’ within
the project. This proposed panel will make mission report every 4 months in the
1st year and subsequently twice (1 in every 6 months) a year for the remaining
period of the project’s implementation headed by an independent monitoring
consultant with support staff. Project authority will take necessary action regarding
this.
 Meaningful Public Consultation and Disclosure Requirements is also a part of
accountability. The Bank reaffirms its recognition and endorsement of the
fundamental importance of transparency and accountability to the development
process. Accordingly, it is Bank’s policy to be open about its activities and to
welcome and seek out opportunities to explain its work to the widest possible
audience.
 The RPF, EMF and other reports will be disclosed in country (on NCC website and
in hard copy in locally accessible locations in the project area CC, UP, Pouroshava
and Upazila including NCC offices at the existing terminals) and sent to WB Info
Shop.
 The IPN was created in 1993 by the World Bank Board of Executive Directors, as
a three-member body, in an important step to increase the transparency and
accountability in Bank operations. The IPN provides independent investigation,
subject to Board approval, to determine whether harm has occurred from
noncompliance with Bank Policy in connection with the implementation of a project

financed by the World Bank. The IPN is the first body of its kind to give voice to
private citizens in an international development context.
However, as required, an independent monitory panel was asked for the project. In this
panel, there will be a chief consultant, two assistant of the consultant and one NGO
worker. The team will be working as long as the work is going on. At first year, they will
make report every four months. From second year, they will be making reports every six
months. This will be continued until the end of the project.
An approximate budget for the first two years is given below:

Chapter 10: Grievance Redress

Mechanism

CHAPTER 10: GRIEVANCE REDRESS

MECHANISM
10.1 Grievance Redress Mechanism
The objective of a grievance procedure is to ensure all comments and complaints from
any project stakeholder, including local/regional authorities, residents of nearby residential
areas, NCC employees and other interested parties, are acknowledged and responded to
within a reasonable timeframe.
NCC will accept all comments and complaints associated with the project. The comments
and complaints will be summarized and listed in a Complaints/Comments Log Book. Any
person or organization may send comments and/or complaints in person or via post, email
or facsimile using the contact information.
All comments and complaints will be responded to either verbally or in writing, in

accordance with preferred method of communication specified by the complaint in the
Comments and Complaints Form. All grievances will be registered and acknowledged
within 5 days and responded to within 20 working days. The PAPs/community can appeal
the decision of the GRC in the appropriate court of law, which mainly depends on the
nature of the grievance. NCC will keep a grievance log and report on grievance
management, as part of half-yearly project progress reports, available at NCC website
and NGO office.
The redress committee will be formed with at least seven members. The committee will
solve the grievances, which have been raised by the PAPs and Project community. The
members of the committee are Mayor of NCC or Representative of NCC (1), NGO
representative (1), LGED representative (1), Affected persons’ representatives (2),
Teacher from local educational institute (1), Representative of civil society (1), and
Female Word Councilor (1). From the affected persons’ representatives, one will be a
male and the other one be female. The Grievance Redress committee (GRC) headed by
an officer of Resettlement Unit (RU)/Social Development Unit of project area equivalent to
Assistant Director in the NCC.
The committee will receive the application from the affected stakeholders about their
grievances and they will solve the grievances every month other than disputes relating to
ownership rights under the court of law. The GRC will review grievances involving all
resettlement benefits, relocation, other assistance and social issues.

The GRM will directly focus on and seek to resolve complaints (and requests for
information or clarification) that pertain to outputs, activities and processes undertaken by
the Project, i.e., those which (i) are described in the Project Implementation Manual; (ii)
are funded through the Project (including counterpart funds); and (iii) are carried out by
staff or consultants of the organization, or by their partners and sub-contractors, directly or
indirectly supporting the project. It is envisaged that such cases would fall under (but are
not limited to) the following categories:
 request for information, comment or suggestion, e.g., request for clarification as to

the delay in reimbursing expenses of participants in a given training event;
 violation of rights or non-performance of obligations, e.g., complaint by consultant
or firm whose contract is suspended as a result of presumed poor performance or
non-delivery of agreed-upon outputs;
 grievances or offenses involving a violation of law, e.g., allegations of corruption;
and
 complaints against project staff, members of project committees, consultants, and
subcontractors involved in project implementation
GRM will be implemented in two phases: 1) Phase 1 to support safeguards

implementation, 2) Phase two of GRM will cover all components and overall project
implementation. A formal grievance redress process for phase two will be outlined in the

project‘s operation manual and a protocol will be set up and distributed to project staff and
implementers. The project level protocol will build on experience of the initial GRM
protocol, which supports implementation of the safeguards explained below.
Phase One –GRM under Safeguard Issues
 Receive compliant through the toll free number.

 Register Case no. by issuing a complaint number to the complainant; Date and
channel of receipt, name of complainant, nature of the complaint, gender, father or
husband’s name and complete address.
 Nature of complaint should be clearly addressed (e.g., loss of land/property or
entitlements)
 Forward the complaint to the concerned person immediately via SMS.
 Within five days complain will be examined, resolved and reported.
 If not resolved within five days, SMS alert is sent out by the system to senior
management.
 Complaint will be investigated and resolved within seven days from the date of
receiving the complaint.
 Confirmation will be received from complainant on grievance redress and ticket
number closed.
 Monthly reports will be generated from the system that provides feedback to
improve the process of implementation of RPE.
Phase Two – Establishment of implementation Arrangements for setting up project level

GRM.
 Experience from the phase 1 of GRM implemented to support social and

environment safeguards will be used to extend the protocol and inform the project
wide GRM.
 PIU needs to identify groups of users that are likely to use the GRM and assess
the resources- human, financial and technological.
 PIU needs to develop standard operating procedure and flowcharts to define how
GRS involves within the project’s operating structures.
 The whole procedure should be monitored and reported on time.
 The whole process will be overseen by NCC Mayor.
The representatives of the affected areas will do face to face communication with the
affected people of the community. It will also help the affected females to talk about their
hurdles with the female representative from the community. The whole procedure should
be kept confidential between the representatives from the community and the affected
people. It is noted that the GRC will provide claimants with the assurance that grievances
will be resolved satisfactorily without any cost. GRC will also assist the transfer of
resettlement entitlements.
Grievance procedure will not replace existing legal process available to the affected
people and will not infringe on claimants' right to access existing legal procedures. It will
seek to resolve issues promptly and fairly to expedite the receipt of entitlements and

assistance will be provided without expensive restoration cost and time consuming legal
actions.

Chapter 11: Monitoring and

Evaluation

CHAPTER 11: MONITORING AND EVALUATION

11.1 Introduction
Monitoring can be defined as the ongoing process by which stakeholders obtain regular
feedback on the progress being made towards achieving their goals and objectives. On
the other hand, Evaluation is a rigorous and independent assessment of either completed
or ongoing activities to determine the extent to which they are achieving stated objectives
and contributing to decision-making. The overall objective of a monitoring and evaluation
(ME) programme is to monitor, assess and report on the effectiveness of the
implementation of project activities resettlement, and particularly the application of
mitigation measures. This includes land acquisition, payment of compensation, and
physical progress with land resettlement and rehabilitation activities, effectiveness of

11.3 Impact Evaluation

Monitoring & Evaluation is an important task for measuring the periodic progress of
activities under resettlement program. Impact evaluation is also an important task. This
helps to identify the constraints and bottlenecks in the progress as well as future impacts
to determine remedial measures. Implementing Social management and resettlement
being a complex nature of task, it needs development and establishment of Computerized
Management Information System (CMIS). The main objective of the CMIS is to provide
the management of the project with an efficient tool for better planning and control of
different project tasks. Therefore, NCC will develop a computerized management
information system in monitoring social and resettlement work. Software will be developed
for CMIS. The authority will appoint experienced system analyst, programmer for this. All
sorts of social issues and resettlement information, land acquisition, Entitlement Person
(EP) file including all information and entitlements, pre and post-acquisition and requisition
information of resettlement will be provided for CMIS. Socio economic background of the
concerned affected persons and project community will be recorded for ready reference.
The authority will arrange necessary step in this connection for proper and successful
resettlement and social development. The major input in to the system will be:

 Affected household data

 Land acquisition data
 Data on losses
 Resettlement entitlement and delivery data
 Resettlement monitoring and evaluation data
 Other management related data
Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are critical for ensuring effective implementation of the
RAP and achievement of the set targets. Resettlement monitoring is a continuous process
of data collection, dialogue with the various stakeholders, analysis & reporting and
feedback to management to enable timely adjustment of implementation procedures and
entitlements, if required.
The monitoring will commence with the commencement of the Project implementation and
shall continue throughout the implementation of the Project. At the implementation period,
field officials will design a format for monthly resettlement/SMP monitoring and data
collection. NCC will prepare a post-resettlement/social evaluation report at the end of the
Project activity. The report should provide evidence whether adverse effects of the project
have been mitigated adequately or at least pre-project standard of living and income have
been restored because of the RAP/SMP implementation.
Some monitoring indicators are given below. This might help as proper guideline for
implementation and monitoring of RAP/SMP. In addition to that, NCC will appoint
Monitoring and Evaluation Specialist for further developing indicators and format for
further needs or may reshuffle from the changed needs for efficient implementation of
RAP.
The GRC, implementing agency or NGO, NCC RU/Social Development Unit and
Accounts section will develop standard reporting formats and reports will be submitted on
a monthly basis highlighting constraints and suggestion for implementation of SMP/RAP.
RU/ Social Development Unit will arrange monthly review meeting with assistance of
Implementing Agency NGO for identifying the problems and proper suggestions will be
given to the implementing NGO and minutes will be sent to the concerned persons and
higher authority. For smooth implementation of the affected person’s problem, project
community GRC will have a direct contact with the field.
The NGO or implementing agency, executing the program will monitor PAPs participation
in the vocational training and other economic rehabilitation program. Records will be
maintained about their attendance and the payments. Post resettlement socio economic
survey for evaluation will be carried out based on a TOR to be developed by a
resettlement/ social development expert engaged by NCC .The survey document will be
the final project document. The implementing NGO will develop Computerized
Management Monitoring System and will supply to the NCC and implementing NGO and
NCC will preserve the data.
Implementation of the RAP/SMP will be monitored regularly. A Computerized

Management Information System (CMIS) will be established to provide integrity of data
records, better planning and decision-making, improved resettlement services, problem

detection on resettlement issues, and project expenses and implementation within limits
and schedules. The CMIS will provide household files for PAPs containing losses and
entitlement, scheduled monitoring reports, progress reports, and financial reports. The
Project Management Office (PMO) i.e. RU will establish a quarterly monitoring system
involving staff of the NGO staff. The PMO will prepare progress reports on all aspects of
land acquisition and resettlement activities. The report contains progress made in RAP
implementation with particular attention to compliance with the principles and matrix set
out in the plan. (NCC will hire Independent auditors acceptable to World Bank (WB) to
carry out external monitoring of the resettlement operations within two months of loan
effective date. The External monitor’s report will be submitted simultaneously to the NCC
and WB regularly. The monitoring consultant will be selected within three months of loan
approval. Monitoring will be carried out every year during project implementation.
For efficient implementation and management of the RAP/SMP, some review work is
needed. This will be internal and external. The authority will produce monthly and
quarterly reports for monitoring the progress. NCC will engage efficient consultant from
outside for total review of the project after the implementation period. At the same time,
WB and other stakeholders may arrange separate study to monitor the implementation of
RAP/SMP. NCC will carry out a midterm internal evaluation for the affected person at the
implementation period. Following formats are proposed to use the progress monitoring. In
addition to following formats internal Monitoring Specialist, Resettlement Specialist may
develop other formats or may change following formats if justified.

Public consultation is a very important aspect for monitoring purpose and it is a

continuous process. Resettlement Unit (RU)/ Social Development Unit of NCC will use
this format for reporting public consultation in their monthly and quarterly progress report.
NGO or implementing agency will submit it to the RU/Social Development Unit and to the
WB.
11.4 Computerized Management Information System (CMIS)

Monitoring and Evaluation is a huge task for measuring the intermittent advancement of
activities under resettlement program. Impact evaluation is also an imperative task. This
distinguishes the constraints and bottlenecks in the development and future impacts to
decide and modify remedial measures. Actualizing Social management and resettlement
being a complex characteristic of the task, it needs improvement and foundation of
Computerized Management Information System (CMIS). The prime concern of the CMIS
is to give the administration a project with an effective tool for better arranging and
controlling of different tasks assigned.
In this way, NCC will build up a computerized information system in checking social and
resettlement work. Software will be developed for CMIS. The relevant authority will
designate experienced system expert or analyst and a programmer for this. A wide range
of social issues and resettlement data, acquisition of land, entitlement person (EP)
document including all data and designations, pre and post-obtaining and requisition data
of resettlement will be accommodated in CMIS. Financial background of the concerned
victims and targeted project community will be recorded. Moreover, for the implementation
of an automated Computerized Management Information System (CMIS) for the
accomplishment of stated task and data record, a budget will be needed. The budget draft
would require the following issues for implementing a Computerized Management
Information System CMIS:
1. Purchasing equipment:
_Computers
_A central Server (Network Hub)
_Printers Furniture
2. Transportation to the office
3. Configuring the network
4. Software development

5. Appointing of experienced system analyst

Comments and Remarks on SIA Report
SI Topics Comments Remarks

1 Executive A. Introduction: As discussed at the Incorporated as per the comments
nd
Summary: Office of the PD, MGSP on 22 and the Title has been changed as
May, the sub project title may be the “Restoration/Rehabilitation of
changed in order to keep the sub Baburail Canal with Landscaping,
project in Environment Category Beautification & Lighting”
Yellow B. The project would need
restructuring with focus to
beautification instead of
highlighting restoration of water
flow of Baburail Canal. New title
may be "Narayanganj City East-
West Beautification Sub Project".
The word canal is avoided here.
The changed focus: will require
tremendous amount of rewriting
(Para 1, p13).
2 C. Social Impact i. Need some editing. We would i. Incorporated and corrected. This
Assessment: like to have soft copy of the SIA section has been discussed in
report, not now, but after Section 2.2: Phase II: Survey
modification as huge amount of Activities.
rewriting is involved. Then we shall
be able to edit in track change
mode. Interview of 384
respondents by structured
questionnaire is a qualitative
survey, the qualitative part is 5
FGDs and 13 Klls (para 1, p14).
ii. Para 2 (p14) notes that 53% ii. Incorporated and

structures are illegally established, corrected according to comments.
it requires mentioning- on whose
land? Khas/Railway/BWDB etc.
iii. Para 4 (P14) write a lot about

past glory of Baburail khal as a link
waterway between two rivers. iii. Incorporated and rewriting
While rewriting, it should mention according to comments
that restoration of waterway is a
dream and would be addressed
through some other large project
when water quality of Sitalakhya
and Dholeswari will improve. This
is far away from the scope of this
small sub project.
iv. After para 4 (p14) nine bullet iv. Here some ponts has
points noted some concerns which been addressed from FGD
sound negative but several of them findings & concern from the local
are already resolved. Authority of people. Point has been
NCC and adjoining UP on land is incorporated according to
no longer an issue. Bullet 3 comments.

vaguely says that many poor

people will lose earning opportunity
without mentioning how many poor
people would lose earning and
how. Bullet 4 says about pollution
but does not mention what
pollution. Bullet 7 remarked that the
rich will benefit (may be for
increased value and rent of
property) and the poor will not
benefit. The sub project would also
benefit the poor for increased work
opportunity during construction and
after construction employment in
restaurant and fast food shop etc.
will increase.
3 D. Mitigation i. Para 1(p15) mentions budget of i. Detail discussed in

Plan: SMP implementation and that Resettlement Action Plan
resettlement would be dealt (RAP) Report
separately without putting any
budget under it.
ii. Para 2 (p15) suggests among

other things alternative livelihood
program for affected households. It
ii. Near 400 PAHs has been
mentioned. Detailed
does not say for how many project discuss in Chapter -8:
affected households such Impact Assessment and
livelihood program will be needed, RAP Report
definitely not all. Most would like
one-time compensation in cash.
This paragraph mentions large
number of social problems without
considering how the project would
negatively impact them. The
project is not likely to have any
negative impact on child marriage
and dowry. Labor influx may have
some influence on wage
discrimination and engagement of
child labor if not mitigated. Influx of
visitor
in the beautification sites may have

some effect on food safety,
sanitation, hygiene, sex work etc
but effective mitigation measures
can be taken.
4 E. Conclusion: Please include monitoring and Incorporated according to

evaluation including external comments
evaluation as means to enhance
implementation success and
sustainability.
