CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project (PMP) has been envisaged on the
Mahakali River (known as Sarada in India) where the river forms the
international boundary between India and Nepal, dividing the Far Western
Development Region of Nepal from the Uttrakhand State in India. The main
dam at Pancheshwar is proposed across the Mahakali River, 2.5 km
downstream of the confluence of river Sarju with Mahakali River and, about 70
km upstream of the Tanakpur town (India).
It is a bi-national scheme, primarily aimed at energy production. In addition,
the Project aims to enhance the food grains production in both the countries
by providing additional irrigation resulting from the augmentation of dry
season flows. Due to moderation of flood peaks at reservoir(s), incidental
flood control benefits are also envisaged from the project.

Chapter 1: Introduction Page 2
1.2 THE MAHAKALI TREATY-1996
Recognizing that the Mahakali River is a boundary river on major stretches
between the two countries, a treaty (known as the “Mahakali Treaty”) was
signed on February 12, 1996 between His Majesty’s Government of Nepal and
the Government of India concerning the integrated development of the
Mahakali River including Sarada Barrage, Tanakpur Barrage and
Pancheshwar Project. The center-piece of the treaty was “Pancheshwar
Multipurpose Project” which both sides agreed to implement in accordance
with the Detailed Project Report jointly prepared by them.
The main principles enshrined in the Treaty, on which the Pancheshwar
Multipurpose Project is to be designed and implemented, are summarized as
under:
Both Parties have equal entitlement in the utilization of the waters of the
Mahakali River without prejudice to their respective existing
consumptive uses of the waters of the Mahakali River.
Water requirements of Nepal shall be given prime consideration in
utilization of the waters of the Mahakali River. Both the parties shall be
entitled to draw their share of waters of the Mahakali River from the
Tanakpur Barrage and/or other mutually agreed points.
The Project shall be designed to produce the maximum total net
benefit. All benefits accruing to both the Parties with the development
of the Project in the forms of power, irrigation, flood control etc., shall be
assessed.
The P roject shall be implemented as an integrated project including
power stations of equal capacity on each side of the Mahakali River
and the total energy generated shall be shared equally between the
Parties.
Cost of the project shall be borne by the parties in proportion to the
benefits accruing to them. Both the Parties shall jointly endeavour to
mobilize the finance required for the implementation of the Project.
A portion of Nepal’s share of energy shall be sold to India. The
quantum of such energy and its price shall be mutually agreed upon
between the Parties.
Further, in the letters dated 12 February, 1996 exchanged by the two
Governments along with the Mahakali Treaty, the principles for assessment of
project benefits during the preparation of the Detailed Project Report of the
Project are also deliberated as under:
Net power benefit shall be assessed on the basis of, inter alia, saving
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 3
in costs to the beneficiaries as compared with the relevant alternatives
available,
Irrigation benefit shall be assessed on the basis of incremental and
additional benefits due to augmentation of river flow, and
Flood control benefit shall be assessed on the basis of the value of
works saved and damaged avoided (to both sides of the river).
Besides the above, Nepal is entitled to draw 1000 cusec of water in
monsoon season and 150 cusec in the dry season from Sarada Barrage
(through its irrigation canal) at Banbasa under Article-1 of the Treaty. This
water drawn from Banbasa barrage provides irrigation to a command area of
11,600 ha; known as Mahakali Irrigation Project (stage-I & II) in Nepal. In
addition, another 1000 cusec of Mahakali water in the wet season and 300
cusec of water in the dry season has been committed under Article-2 of the
Treaty from the Tanakpur Barrage.
Under Article-1 (2) of the Treaty, it was further agreed that India shall maintain
a flow of not less than 10 m3/s (350 cusecs), downstream of the Sarada
Barrage, into the Mahakali River, to maintain and preserve the river eco-
system.
Further, the local communities living along both sides of the Mahakali River
shall be entitled to use of the waters of the Mahakali River, not exceeding five
(5) percent of the average Annual flow at Pancheshwar under Article-7 of the
Treaty.
The Pancheshwar DPR has been prepared keeping the above guiding
principles in consideration and the benefits from the Project which are likely to
be accrued to each Party, are assessed clearly in accordance with the letters
dated 12.02.1996 exchanged by the two Governments along with the Mahakali
Treaty.
1.3 PANCHESHWAR DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
Pursuant to the Article-10 of the Mahakali Treaty, it was agreed that, both the
Parties may form project specific joint entity for the development, execution
and operation of new projects including Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project in
the Mahakali River for their mutual benefit. Accordingly, at the 3rd meeting of
the Joint Committee on Water Resources (JCWR) headed by the water
resources secretaries of India and Nepal, held in November 2009, it was
decided to set up the Pancheshwar Development Authority, an independent
autonomous body, to finalize the Pancheshwar Detailed Project Report and
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 4
expedite the implementation of the Project.
The Authority was set up in August 2014, having two Co-Chairpersons, one
from each side, and twelve Members (six Members from each side), which
would be working as a Governing Body of the Authority. Among others, the
Ambassadors of Nepal to India and India to Nepal shall be permanent invitees
at the meeting of the Governing Body. The Composition of Governing Body of
Pancheshwar Development Authority (PDA) is given in Table-1.1.

1.4 HISTORY OF THE PROJECT
The Pancheshwar dam site was first identified during the hydroelectric survey
of potential sites on the Mahakali River conducted by the erstwhile Central
Water and Power Commission of India in 1956. A storage type development for
power generation was envisaged at that time.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 5
In the year 1962, State Government of Uttar Pradesh carried out preliminary
field investigations with the assistance of the Survey of India and Geological
Survey of India. Based upon the field investigations carried out and data
collected by U.P. Irrigation Department, a project report of the scheme was
prepared by WAPCOS INDIA LIMITED in November 1971. The report
suggested a concrete gravity dam with a crest at an elevation 638 m a s l or a
height from the river bed of about 232 m.
In order to develop the feasibility study of the scheme and to decide about
further investigations to be carried out, a Joint Group of Experts (JGE) of India
and Nepal was constituted in the year 1978. Detailed investigations on Indian
side to formulate the scheme were initiated by Central Water Commission
(India) in July, 1981.
During the 3rd JGE meeting held in April, 1984, it was decided that the
feasibility report would be prepared jointly but the investigations required for the
study be carried out independently by India and Nepal in their respective
territories. The Nepal side appointed consultants with the financial assistance
of the International Development Agency (IDA) to carry out field investigation
works at feasibility level. On the Indian side these investigations were carried
out by Central Water Commission (CWC) with the help of Survey of India,
Geological Survey of India (GSI), Central Electricity Authority (CEA), Central
Soil and Materials Research Station (CSMRS), New Delhi and Central Water
and Power Research Station (CWPRS), Pune.
During 5th meeting of the Joint Group of Experts (JGE) held in March, 1991,
field data collected by both sides were exchanged and data gaps were
identified. It was decided to prepare and finalize a mutually acceptable Project
Definition Report (PDR) to outline the project parameters. Based on the data
collected by both sides, draft Project Definition Report(s) identifying the basic
characteristics of the project, its preliminary benefits and costs was prepared
by both India and Nepal independently and made available to either side for
further discussions.
During the goodwill visit of the Nepalese Prime Minister to India in December
1991, an understanding was reached between the two Countries to prepare a
Joint Detailed Project Report, at Feasibility level.
The 6th meeting of Joint Group of Experts of India and Nepal (JGE) on
Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project was held in February 1992 to discuss the
data gaps in field investigations and modalities for preparation of the Detailed
Project Report. An action plan was drawn and the work of preparation of
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 6
Detailed Project Report was assigned by distributing the subject chapters
between the two sides. The additional field investigations that were identified in
the 6th meeting of JGE were completed in December 1993. These field
investigations comprised mainly of topographical surveys, geological
explorations, seismological studies, in-situ rock tests, construction material
surveys, etc. The Indian side completed the assigned chapters and sent to His
Majesty's Government of Nepal (HMG/N) in 1994 for review. Based on the
information contained therein, a draft Detailed Project Report (DPR) was
prepared by HMG/N in 1995 and forwarded to Government of India in July/
August 1996 for their comments. After examination of the draft DPR, three
meetings of Joint Group of Experts followed by two meetings at the level of
Technical officials were held and the contents thereof were discussed to arrive
at a mutually agreed solution.
In the 11th JGE meeting held in March 1999, it was agreed in principle to
establish a Joint Project Office - Pancheshwar Investigation (JOP-PI) at
Kathmandu along with Field Offices, as required, to conduct additional field
investigations for the Re-regulating dam and studies for preparation of Detailed
Project Report jointly. Accordingly, the JPO-PI was established at Kathmandu
in December 1999. The Division office at Tanakpur and three sub-division
offices viz. at Pancheshwar for main dam, at Tamli for Rupaligad site and at
Thuligad for Purnagiri site were established in May 2000. The personnel from
both India and Nepal were deployed to conduct additional field investigations
and studies for preparation of Detailed Project Report jointly.
Due to submergence of Rangun khola valley in Nepal, the Govt. of Nepal did
not agree to locate the re-regulating dam at Purnagiri site and insisted to
construct the regulating dam at Rupaligad only to store the Pancheshwar
powerhouses’ releases during peak hours and release them from Rupaligad
round the clock, to meet the irrigation water requirement downstream. To
resolve the issue pending for last more than ten years, the Indian side agreed
to the Nepalese request to locate the re-regulating dam at Rupaligad site in the
3rd meeting of the Joint Committee on Water Resources (JCWR) held in
November, 2009 at Pokhara (Nepal).

Rupaligad dam site- downstream axis
1.5 PROJECT LOCATION
The Pancheshwar main dam site is proposed about 2.5 km downstream of the
confluence of Sarju with the Mahakali River, a primary tributary of the
Mahakali from India. Here, the Mahakali river flows in a narrow V -shaped
gorge, flanked by 45 degree slopes rising more than 1,000 m above the river
bed. A re-regulating dam is proposed downstream of main dam to even out
peaking out flows from Pancheshwar power houses for meeting irrigation water
requirement and to exploit hydro potential of the basin below Pancheshwar. For
this purpose, two alternative locations were identified; one at Rupaligad, 25 Km
downstream of main dam and other at Purnagiri, 61 Km downstream main
dam. Finally, the Rupaligad site has been selected for re-regulating dam.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 8
An Index Map showing location of main dam and re-regulating dam is
presented in the Figure-1.1.
Figure-1.1: Index Map of the Project
The project structures, including the reservoir area, lie in Champawat,
Pithoragarh, Bageshwar and Almora districts of Uttaranchal state in India and
in Baitadi and Dharchula districts of Far Western Development Region in
Nepal. The entire area directly covered by the project structures and the
proposed reservoir is located between 29°25'0" and 29°47'30" latitude N and
79°55'0" and 80°35'0" longitude E.
1.6 MAHAKALI RIVER BASIN
The Mahakali River originates from the Lipulekh glacier at an elevation of about
7,820 m in the Himalayas. The river flows steeply through a complex sequence
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 9
of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks of the High and Inner Himalayan
physiographic provinces and then passes through the Lower Himalayan
province (Mahabharat and Siwalik ranges) before emerging onto the Gangetic
plain in the Terai region.
The Mahakali (Sarada) basin up to the Pancheshwar dam site has a total
catchment area of 12,276 km2, located between 29°20'30" and 30°35'30"
latitude N and 79°20'30" and 81°9'45" longitude E. Out of the total catchment,
an area of 9,720 km2 of the river catchment lies in India, and 4,456 km2 in
Nepal.
During its course, the river carries the flows from several major tributaries
including the Dhauli Ganga (catchment 1357 km2), Gori Ganga (catchment
2300 km2) and Sarju (catchment 4019 km2) from India and the Chamaliya
(catchment:1572 km2) from Nepal. Other minor tributaries joining the Mahakali
River below Pancheshwar dam site are Lohawati & Ladhiya Rivers from India
and Surnayagad, Rupaligad, Sirsegad & Ragun Khola from Nepal before the
river emerges onto the Gangetic plains below the Purnagiri temple near
Tanakpur town. The total drainage area up to Purnagiri temple has been
worked out to be around 14,922 sq km, out of which 10,884 sq km area lies in
India and 4,038 sq km area in Nepal.
The upper reaches of the Mahakali River and of its various tributaries are
characterized by very steep drops. For instance in the first 100 km reach, the
river drops over 4900 m. In its middle and lower reaches it flows through
relatively gentle gradients providing favorable terrain for storage projects.
1.7 ACCESS
At present, the only access by road to the project area is through India. The all
weather 40 km long road from Lohaghat to the Mahakali River at Pancheshwar
was constructed by the State Public Works Department in 1971 to facilitate the
field investigations of the dam project taken up by the Indian side.
It is proposed to use the existing Tanakpur – Lohaghat - Pancheshwar road
(about 130 km) as the main access through India, for the pre- construction
activities of the project. The last portion of this road, approaching the actual
dam site that would eventually be submerged by the reservoir would be
suitably relocated according to the requirement of the permanent project
structures and of the construction planning.
At present, access to the site from Nepal is possible only by helicopter or by a
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 10
two-day, 60 km trek from the Patan village. The only existing vehicular access
to the far western development region of Nepal from the rest of the country is
the East - West Highway. The Dhanghari - Dadeldhura - Patan - Baitadi feeder
road, connects the project area to the East- West highway.
In order to gain access through Nepal for the transportation of construction
equipment, machinery, materials, etc. for the project; and for transport of
generating equipment to the Pancheshwar and Rupaligad Re-regulating dam
sites, a new road from Brahmdev to Pancheshwar along the left bank of
Mahakali River has been envisaged and detailed field investigations including
cost estimates have been undertaken by the Project Authority.
1.8 PROJECT FEATURES
As presently conceived, the project includes the following main structures:
A main rock fill dam at Pancheshwar, 315 m high from the deepest
foundation level, forming about 80 km long reservoir, with a surface area
of 116 km2 and a total gross storage volume of about 11.35 billion m3;
Spillway on the left bank (Nepal side of the river), designed to safely
discharge the estimated maximum river flow;
Two underground powerhouses, one on each bank, having a total
installed capacity of 4800 MW (2400 MW capacity on each bank);
A re-regulating dam downstream at Rupaligad site to even-out main dam
releases to achieve continuous river flow conditions;
Two Underground power houses at re-regulating dam having a total
installed capacity of 120 MW each.
The project will generate a total of 7678 GWh dependable power every
year at main dam complex; that will meet a substantial part of the energy
and peak power demand of the Northern India. The project would also
simultaneously cover the medium and long term energy requirements of
Nepal. In addition, 1438 GWh of dependable power would be generated
annually at Rupaligad dam power stations.
At the same time, the project will regulate the natural river flow, allowing
the year round irrigation of agricultural land in the Kanchanpur District in
Nepal, and meeting the existing and future water requirements of the
Indian irrigation systems. It is expected that an additional irrigation
potential of 1.70 lakh hactare in Nepal and 2.59 lakh hactare in the
Indian side would be created with augmented river flows in the post-
Pancheshwar scenario.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 1: Introduction Page 11
In addition, the project will have an incidental flood mitigation effect, reducing
risk of flooding along the lower course of the Mahakali (Sarada) river, both in
the Nepalese and Indian territories. It is expected to protect low lying areas in
Chandani-Dodhara villages along the west bank of Mahakali River in Nepal.
Further, around 10,000 hactare of area of district Pilibhit and 90,000 hactare in
the district Lakhimpur Kheri in Uttar Pradesh (India) are inundated almost every
five years in the Sarada basin due to floods in a stretch of 60 km of the river
which would get protection from floods of 25 years frequency, in the post-
Pancheshwar scenario.
1.9 OUTLINE OF THE REPORT

CHAPTER – 2
ASSESSMENT OF PROJECT AFFECTED VILLAGES AND FAMILIES
2.1 METHODOLOGY ADOPTED FOR ENYMERATION
The purpose of enumeration of affected properties and project affected families,
both secondary as well as primary sources of information was used. A
preliminary list of probable affected villages was prepared using submergence
area maps and Administrative Atlas for Uttarakhand, which was subsequently
verified and updated with the help of revenue officials. The khasra maps
collected from the Revenue Department were scanned and superimposed on
the project area/ submergence area map to delineate the affected/ impacted
zone. These maps were extensively used to delineate the plots or parcels of
land likely to be affected due to the process of land acquisition. A list of such
plots was prepared to correlate with ownership details through the RoRs.
2.2 IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT AFFECTED VILLAGES
A total of 134 villages will be affected, of which 123 villages are affected in the
Pancheshwar MPDP (Refer Table-2.1) and 11 villages in the Rupaligad RDP
(Refer Table).

2.4 ENUMERATION OF PAFS AFFECTED DUE TO LAND ACQUISITION
After the affected/ impacted zone was delineation on the superimposed khasra
maps, a list of all the affected khasra/ plot numbers within the impacted zone
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 2: Assessment of Project Affected Villages and Families Page 9
was prepared. Thereafter, revenue records, viz., Right of Records (RoRs) were
collected for all the affected villages. The State of Uttarakhand has
computerized and uploaded RoRs on their website: www.devbhumi.uk.gov.in
which was collected and computerized for analysis. The RoRs provided
ownership details of land parcels within each affected village. The list of
affected land plots/ parcels was correlated with the RoRs to establish
ownership details of each affected land plots. Analysis of the RoRs lead to
enumeration of affected persons/ families/ land titleholders and information was
compiled to show PAFs likely to lose land only, land and homesteads and
homesteads only. The village-wise PAFs likely to lose land only, land and
homesteads and homesteads only for Pancheshwar MPP and Rupaligad RDP
are listed in Tables 2.8 and 2.9. The summary of number of PAFs likely to be
affected due to the project are given in Table-2.10.

CHAPTER – 4
DATA ANALYSIS OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC SURVEY
4.1 GENERAL
Most often, development projects are planned based on the availability of
exploitable natural resources. This attracts flow of finances, investments, jobs
and other livelihood opportunities, which brings in people from different cultural
and social background. Such planned activities not only provide impetus to the
local economy but also bring about a multi-dimensional economic, social and
cultural change. Most often it has been observed that such development
projects are commissioned in economically and socially backward areas.
Commissioning of a development project invariably brings about a number of
desired and undesired impacts along with it. The main aim of the of the study is
to provide services for conducting social and property survey for the
Pancheshwar Multi-purpose Project (PMP) in Uttarakhand. As part of the study,
socio-economic survey was conducted for the project affected families of
Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project. The baseline setting for socio-economic
aspects are outlined in the present Chapter.
4.2 SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE OF PROJECT AFFECTED FAMILIES
4.2.1 Methodology Adopted for Socio-Economic Survey
Information for undertaking the socio-economic studies included both
secondary as well as primary data and information. Secondary data was
collected from the revenue department in the form of Right of Records (RoRs)
and Khasra (Cadastral) maps. Secondary source of information in terms of
existing reports, maps and other documents pertaining to the project. Primary
data and information was collected through interactions and consultations with
project affected families in the affected villages. Primary socio-economic
information from the stratified random 30% sample PAFs was gathered with the
help of survey tools, specially devised for this purpose. The primary information
from the sample PAFs was computerized and analyzed to draw inferences and
subsequently a socio-economic survey report was prepared.
A considerable time was spent in collation of information from the secondary
sources. Through desk research and review of maps from District Administrative
Atlas of Uttarakhand, a comprehensive list of probable affected villages was
prepared. In all there are 134 affected villages in districts Pithoragarh (87),
Champawat (26) and Almora (21). The project-wise list of project affected

The process of collation of information, such as record of rights (RoR) and
khasra maps, from the Revenue authorities was initiated and completed. The
team was met District Magistrates/ Collectors (DM/ DC) of districts Pithoragarh,
Champawat and Almora, and appraised them about the Pancheshwar
Multipurpose Project, the property and socio-economic study, information and
data required for the study, and requested assistance of the Revenue
Department to share the required information. Subsequent to the meeting,
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 6
respective DMs directed their officers and concerned staff to extend all possible
support and assistance. On the directions of the respective DMs, team
members met respective Sub-Divisional Magistrates (SDM), Tehsildars,
Patwaris, Land Record Section Officer and Staff. The comprehensive list of
affected villages was verified and updated and subsequently revenue maps for
the affected villages were collected.
At headquarters, collected khasra maps were scanned and superimposed on the
submergence area map to delineate the affected/ impacted zone. Thereafter, a
list of all the plots/ khasra, likely to be acquired/ impacted was listed down. This
was extensively used to gather Right of Records (RoRs). The State of
Uttarakhand has computerized and uploaded RoRs on their website:
www.devbhumi.uk.gov.in which was used to collate RoRs of the affected
villages. These analyses led to enumeration of affected persons/ families/ land
titleholders likely to lose land, land and homesteads and homesteads only.
A list of affected persons/ families/ land titleholders was prepared, which was
used to identify them in the field for conducting socio-economic survey in the
affected villages. Thus, for the purpose of identification of PAFs in the affected
villages, this list of affected persons/ families/ land titleholders was used, and
30% stratified random sample survey of affected families was conducted.
For the process of primary data collection, a survey team comprising of local
educated youths was formed. It was ensured that the members of the survey
team (investigators/ surveyors) were educated, well acquainted with Hindi
language (as the schedules were to be filled-in this language) and at the same
time that they were well versed with the local customs and language. Training
was imparted to the members of the survey team, wherein they were appraised
about the purpose of the survey and on the method of consultations with the
affected families/ persons and how to use GPS and filled-in the survey schedule.
The survey team traversed the submergence area and dam alignment and
visited the affected villages for conducting the socio-economic survey. Based on
the list of project affected families prepared from the Khasra details, Survey
coordinator delineated the stratified random 30% sample of PAFs. A list of such
PAFs was prepared and shared by the investigators and used to identify the
PAFs in the field and canvass them. A considerable time was spent in reaching
many of these villages. Upon reaching the affected villages, they contacted
the Village Panchayat/ Panchayat member or secretary and appraised them
about the survey work and required information.
At the end of each day’s work the filled-in data checklists were cleaned for
internal discrepancies. The survey team coordinator ensured that the survey
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 7
team members eliminated the internal discrepancies and filled-in the missing
information in the survey schedules. The gathered information was thereafter
computerized. This keyed-in information/data was then analyzed and inferences
were drawn using Microsoft Excel computer software.
This socio-economic survey report has been prepared for the entire 134 project
affected villages and at the end of the survey, the survey team contacted 1965
project affected families as part of the stratified random sample survey.
4.2.2 Findings of Socio-economic survey
A total of 11776 families from 111 affected villages were covered as a part of
the survey in Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project.120 families from 11 affected
villages were surveyed for Rupaligad Project. Thus a total of 11896 families in
122 affected villages were covered as a part of the survey.
Religious affiliation
The village-wise religious orientation of the surveyed population is depicted in
Table-4.2 and Figure-4.1. Among the sample population, a large majority 99.53%
of the surveyed population follows the Hindu faith. Only 0.32% PAFs were
Mulsim. For the remaining data on their religious faith was not available. The
religious affiliation of 0.16% the surveyed families is not defined. In the
Rupaligad RDP the entire sample PAFs follows the Hindu faith.

d) Migration Pattern
The information on migration patterns and trend among the surveyed
population were also collected as a part of the study. The village-wise details of
resident and non-resident population are given in Table-4.5. The resident
population accounts for about 84.32% of the total population, and the remaining
(15.68%) is non-resident population (Refer Figure-4.3). During the survey, it
was gathered that the non-resident population had migrated to various places,
and have settled-down permanently or temporarily.
Figure-4.4 reflects that a large majority of the non-resident population has
migrated to various parts of the Uttarakhand, while 42.07% have migrated to
other states, i.e., Delhi, Punjab, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Chattisgarh,
Madhya Pradesh, etc. A small proportion (1.22%) of the non-resident
population has migrated abroad as well to countries like USA and Malaysia.
The reasons of migration from the villages are depicted in Figure-4.6. About
60.1% have migrated in search of jobs and vocations, 28.1% as a result of
marriage, mainly comprising of women-folk, and 4.8% who have migrated to
stay with their family members. About 7% comprising of students, have
migrated for educational purposes as well. A minuscule proportion (0.1%) has
migrated for training purposes.

e) Caste profile
As part of the socio-economic survey, information on caste profile of the
surveyed population was also gathered. The project area is dominated by the
General caste group comprising of Brahmins, Kshatriyas (Thakurs) and
Vaishyas, and account for about 83.13% of the total surveyed population. The
second largest group is that of scheduled castes who comprise 13.24% of the
total surveyed population. Backward Caste group constitutes 2.4% of the total
surveyed population. Scheduled Tribe population accounts for 0.15% of the total
surveyed population. About 1.09% of respondents did not disclose their caste
during the survey.
Out of the total surveyed population it has been observed that in the
Pancheshwar MPDP, large majority of the surveyed population 82.47% belonged
to the General Caste, followed by Scheduled Castes (13.69%), and Backward
Castes (2.54%). Scheduled Tribe population is present in very small proportion
(0.16%) to the total surveyed population. Caste details of 1.14% of the surveyed
population could not be established.
In the Rupaligad RDP villages, General Caste dominated the society, comprising
of 94.44% of the total surveyed population, followed by the Scheduled Caste
(5.56%). The village wise Caste Profile of the PAFs is elucidated in Table-4.6
and Figure-4.6 respectively.

of surveyed population educated or undergoing their education in middle
school and secondary school is of the order of 18.35% and 36.14%
respectively. It is evident from the given statistics that the number of persons
getting educated beyond the primary school and subsequent levels drops, and
thereafter increases in the secondary level education. Further individuals who
complete school level and thereafter take-up higher education reduced
drastically. Individuals who are presently undergoing/ have completed graduate
(includes BA, B.Com, B. Sc) or post graduate (MA, M. Com, M. Sc, PhD) level
comprise 4.63% and 1.66% of the total surveyed population respectively.
Further, individuals who have taken-up or completed professional courses, e.g.
Engineering, MBA, LLB, etc., constitute a minuscule proportion (0.1%) of the
total surveyed population.

PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 38
h) Economic Profile
The maximum number of PAFs are cultivators. A large number of the survey of
affected population are engaged in various government and private jobs, yet
they are still dependent on cultivation. Agriculture not only provides vocation
and food to the PAFs, but it’s a way of life. Farming is mainly done along
terraces.
The main crops grown in the area includes wheat, paddy, maize, maduwa,
pulses, and green vegetables. Farmers use both chemical fertilizers and
cow dung as manure to increase productivity of their plots of land. In villages
which are abundant with water or have streams flowing through the village,
there the farmers constructed contour canals (kiuls) to provide irrigation. Most
of the farmers depend on the rains for irrigation. The produce was used by the
farmers for subsistence, which lasted them anywhere between 6 to 8 months
in a year. Thereafter, they purchased food grains and vegetables from the
market.
i) Livestock Rearing Pattern
Cultivation is the main livelihood that sustains people in the project area. Apart
from cultivation, livestock rearing is the major occupation. Livestock are
reared for milk, meat, eggs and labour. Goats are the dominant livestock by
the affected population, as these are less expensive to maintain and provide
milk and meat. Cows and buffaloes together are the second dominant livestock
reared by the PAFs, which is essentially for its milk and progeny. On an
average, there are about 2 milch animals per family among the surveyed PAFs.
Bullocks and he-buffaloes are reared as beasts of burden, mainly utilized in
farm activities e.g. ploughing, leveling and threshing of crops; they account for
about 12% of the total livestock. Other beasts of burden, viz., horse and
mules are reared by a few PAFs that account for 1.3% of the total livestock
heads. Pigs are also reared, albeit by very few PAFs. Chicken and other
poultry birds were reared by almost all PAFs.
j) Housing Details
Information regarding Housing details was also collected from the affected
families during the socio-economic survey. It was found that no family was
house-less. Mixed layout of housing was observed in the villages. The
settlements ranged from dispersed to compact. Linear settlement (on either
sides of a village lane) was observed in few villages. This residential unit
served the purpose of housing families of sons and grandsons, shelter for
cattle, storage areas for fuel wood, and other material possessions of these
families.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 39
It was observed that the houses on an average had about 4 rooms. Stone,
brick and mud were used to build the walls of the houses, while the roof was
mostly made of wood and tiles.
It was observed that about 60% of the houses had a defined space for housing
cattle. About 4.6% of the cattle sheds were electrified. On an average,
there is about one room for housing cattle.
A small percentage of the houses had provision for separate bath room and
toilet facilities. Otherwise, it was observed that most of the residents used
village ponds or river for bathing, washing and cleaning purposes. Most of the
villages did not have drainage system.
k) Sources of Drinking Water
Tap water supply forms the largest source for the surveyed PAFs. Usually, a
storage tank is constructed near a source, generally on a height and
distributed under gravity through pipeline. Taps are installed at vantage points
to supply water for meeting drinking and other uses. Apart from tapped water
supply, the other sources of water include hand pumps, and tanks/ ponds. The
residents of the project area also depend on the river for water. Springs also
are sources of water for various uses. The main source of water for the affected
population is depicted in Figure-4.8.
Large majority of the sources of water are located near homesteads that served
a few to several homesteads in the village. About 36% of the sources of water
supply were within the homestead premises. A few of the sources were located
within the village, but at a common place, from where residents could use it.
The sources of drinking water for surveyed PAFs are depicted in Figure-4.7.
The distance of the source of water for surveyed PAFs is depicted in Figure-
4.8.

Figure-4.8: Distance for Source of Drinking Water
l) Power Supply
The surveyed project affected Families use various energy sources for power
supply in the homestead. The main source of power supply for lighting in
the homesteads is electricity. A large majority of the affected homesteads
are electrified. About 96% of the homesteads get electricity for lighting
purposes. In addition, the affected sample population also depends on
kerosene for lighting purposes. Other sources such as other oils and solar
lamps are also used.
m) Sources of fuel for Cooking
The project affected families are dependent on a number of sources of fuel for
cooking purposes. Firewood is the major source of fuel, and contributes about
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 41
98% of the all fuels used by the project affected population. Other sources
such as electricity, kerosene, coal, cow dung cakes and fodder stalks from their
own fields contribute together to a small proportion of 2% of all sources.
n) Physical Health
A vast majority of the project affected surveyed population, i.e., 99.84% is in
good health and is physically fit and normal. However, there are about 21
individuals (one each in villages Kanari, Amtari, Ranuwa and Daulani, 2 each
in villages Sailoni and Tallisar, 3 each in villages Titri and Bagrihat, and 6 in
village Askora), i.e, 0.16% of the total surveyed population who are physically
challenged. All these physically challenged persons were enumerated in the
Pancheshwar MPDP.
o) Material Assets
The socio-economic assessment covered overall socio-economic status of the
surveyed project affected population vis-à-vis ownership of material assets,
which is an indicator of well- being. It is clear that many of the surveyed
PAFs, if not all, own material assets, which include farm equipment, modes of
transportation and consumer durables and electronic household gadgets.
Farm equipment
Traditional farm equipment such as wooden and iron ploughs and wooden
planks for leveling are owned by most of the farmers in the project area.
However, specialized and mechanized equipment such as pump set, tractor,
thresher, seed drill, cultivator, leveler, sprayer, etc are owned by very few
farmers. Two tractors, 6 cultivators, 1 leveler and 6 sprayers were observed by
PAFs covered as a part of survey in the Pancheshwar MPDP area. In the
Rupaligad RDP area, farmers did not own farm equipment.
Mode of transportation
PAFs in the project affected villages own various modes of transportation,
either used by themselves or operated by them for commercial purposes.
Motor-cycles and passenger cars are the most common mode of
transportation owned by the surveyed PAFs. Second most common mode was
bicycle. Commercial vehicles such as truck and buses are also owned by some
of the PAFs.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 42
Consumer durable electronic household gadgets
Ownership of consumer durables is a clear indicator of well-being,
consumerism and purchasing power among the surveyed PAFs. The most
commonly owned and used electronic gadget is the Mobile phone. Fans and
watches were also owned by a large number of PAFs. Other common gadgets
include television sets with dish antenas, refrigerators, and compact disc
players. A few families own sewing machines and coolers for air conditioning
their homesteads.
p) Rearing of Trees
The project affected families rear fruit bearing trees around and within their
homesteads and agricultural fields. Fruit bearing trees are raised by the PAFs
for sustenance, although surpluses are usually sold to middle-men, traders and
in the market directly by the surveyed PAFs. The most commonly raised fruit
bearing trees include mango, citrus such as lemon, orange, kinu, sweet lime,
malta, banana, apricot, guava, papaya, pear, peach, pomegranate, etc. Other
fruits such as apple, grapes, jamun, lichi, walnut, tamarind, jack-fruit, are raised,
albeit in smaller numbers by a few PAFs as well.
Rearing of Trees
Almost all the project affected families are engaged in agricultural activities and
growing and rearing of trees, both fruit bearing trees are quite common among
the villagers. Trees such as Jackfruit, Lemon, Orange, Papaya and
Cinnamomum are cultivated and reared by the surveyed population.
q) Types of Households
The survey was conducted in 49 families for the status of houses owned by
them. It was observed from the survey that 100% of the population owns
homestead. Walls were made from Galvanized form, Bricks, Stone or Concrete.
The commonly used wall materials were Cement, Wood and Mortar. The
maximum number of homesteads had Concrete walls followed by wood. The
material used for roof in the surveyed area homestead is CGI sheet, Concrete,
GI sheet, HN sheet, RCC and Tin shed; maximum households amongst the
surveyed population have Tin shed roof followed by CGI sheet. None of the
households amongst the surveyed population have LPG connection. The fuel
used for cooking in the area is firewood. It is further observed that almost all the
surveyed households were electrified.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 43
r) Skill Mapping
As mentioned earlier, in all there are 134 project affected villages; viz., 21 in
district Almora, 26 is district Champawat and 87 in district Pithoragarh. A total
of 31023 families are losing land and 1308 families are losing homestead. As a
part of the study, socio-economic survey was conducted for 11776 Project
Affected Families for Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project. In addition, 120
families from 11 affected villages were surveyed for Rupaligad Project. Thus a
total of (11776+120) 11896 families in 122 project affected villages were
covered as part of the stratified random sample survey.
As per the data collected from the surveyed population it was observed that
about 31% of the surveyed population is gainfully engaged in an economic
activity. This group consists of persons engaged in cultivation (15.82%),
government jobs (4.20%), private jobs (10.50), self-employment/ business
(0.28%), artisans (0.02%), political position (0.07%), and labourers (0.03%). As
per the analysis of the occupational profile of the surveyed population it is
observed that most of the project affected persons are engaged in the
agricultural activities. The, summary of Occupational Profile of the project
affected surveyed population is given in Table-4.9.

It was observed that the resident population accounts for about 84.32% of the
total population, and the remaining (15.68%) is non-resident/migrated
population. There are several reasons stated for the migration of the people
from the project area. Of the total migrated population it is observed that the
population migrated for training purpose only accounts for 0.1% (Engineer,
MBA, LLB, etc).
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 44
It has been observed from the survey that there are no professional institutes
like Medical College, MBA College, and Engineering College in the study area.
Hence, project affected families have Traditional Skills like agriculture, dairy
farming and Horticulture. Although a large number of the survey of affected
population are engaged in various government and private jobs, still major
portion the surveyed population is dependent on cultivation. Agriculture not
only provides vocation and food to the PAFs, but it’s a way of life. Livestock
rearing is the next major occupation adopted by the study area population
Livestock are reared for milk, meat, eggs and labour.
Agriculture is the main occupation in the PAVs. On an average, 76.8%
(63.1% among main workers and 36.9% among marginal workers) of the total
working population is engaged in cultivation. A very minuscule proportion, i.e.
2.9% of the working population is engaged as agricultural labourer. Only a
small proportion of the working population is engaged in household industry
work/vocations. However, a considerable proportion, i.e., about 18.1% of the
working population is engaged as other workers. It appears that a vast majority
of this class is engaged in tertiary economic vocations such as private and
government jobs, self-employment and business, etc.
About 16% of the total sample population is illiterate, while the remaining
84% populations are either literate or are presently continuing with their
education. Amongst the sample surveyed population, 22.38% are either
educated upto or pursuing primary school level. The percentage of sample
population educated or undergoing their education in middle school,
secondary school is of the order of 18.35% and 36.14% respectively.
Individuals who are presently undergoing/ have completed graduate (includes
BA, BCom, BSc) or post graduate (MA, MCom, MSc, PhD) level
comprise 4.63% and 1.66% of the total population respectively. Further,
only 0.1% of the surveyed population has taken-up or completed professional
courses such as engineering, MBA, LLB, etc.,
Cultivation is the main livelihood that sustains people in the project area. Apart
from cultivation, farmers and other PAFs rear cattle for milk, meat, eggs and
labour.
Goats, account for 58.4% of the total livestock population, are by-far the most
common livestock reared by the PAFs, as these are less expensive to maintain
and provide milk and meat. Cows and buffaloes together are the second
dominant livestock reared by the PAFs, which is essentially for its milk and
progeny; they account for 19.5% of the total livestock owned. On an average,
there are about 2 milch animals per family among the sample PAFs. Bullocks
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 4: Data Analysis of Socio-Economic Survey Page 45
and he-buffaloes are reared as beasts of burden, mainly utilized in farm
activities such as ploughing, levelling and threshing of crops; they account for
about 12% of the total livestock. Other beasts of burden, viz., horse and
mules are reared by a few PAFs that account for 1.3% of the total livestock
heads. Pigs are also reared, albeit by very few PAFs. Chicken and other
poultry birds were reared by almost all PAFs.
The conclusion of Skill Mapping are given as below:
Skill level are quite low amongst PAFs.
PAFs have skills related to Agriculture and Livestock
Even in Agriculture and livestock, PAFs are not trained in modern
practices.
As a part of skill development, it is suggested to impart training for the following aspects:
o Dairy
o Beekeeping
o Horticulture

CHAPTER-5
PROPERTY SURVEY
5.1 GENERAL
The main aim of the assignment is to carry-out the property survey –
enumeration of properties likely to be impacted due to the proposed
project. This chapter outlines the study approach and methodology adopted to
carry-out the property enumeration the project affected families.
5.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The scope of work for the Property Survey, the study encompassed desk
research, devising survey tools, Interaction and consultations with district
revenue authorities and staff, field investigation, and consultations with local
key personnel such as village-headman and senior citizen and prominent
citizens, etc to gain an insight of the baseline conditions. The main objectives
of this assessment are to:
Collate revenue records and maps for the project affected villages.
Superimposition of submergence area map on khasra maps
Superimposition of Submergence Area and other project appurtenances
on Khasra Map
Identification of the Khasra numbers to be acquired for various project
affected families.
Identification and collate project affected families (PAFs) from Revenue
records.
Conduct a property survey of the 100% of the project affected families
(PAFs), through field investigations
Estimation of the project affected families losing only land, only
households and both land and households.
Inventory of the properties owned by the project affected families,
common property resources like religious places, community centres,
etc.
5.3 STUDY APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
Information that was required for property enumeration was collated from both
secondary as well as primary sources. Secondary data was collected from the
revenue department in the form of Right of Records (RoRs) and Khasra
(Cadastral) maps. Primary data and information was collected through
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 5: Property Survey Page 2
consultations with village head-man, village elders and prominent citizens of
the affected villages along with the submergence area maps. Thereafter,
through desk research and review of maps, a comprehensive list of probable
affected villages was prepared with the help of Administrative Atlas of
Uttarakhand. Subsequently, during the reconnaissance visit to the project
area, this list of probable affected villages was verified and updated with the
able assistance from officials of the Revenue department. This preliminary list
of probable affected villages comprised of 134 villages spread across districts
Almora, Champawat and Pithoragarh.
Meeting was held with District Magistrates/ Collectors (DM/ DC) of districts
Pithoragarh, Champawat and Almora, and appraised them about the
proposed project, the property, Subsequently, the respective DMs directed
their officers and concerned staff to extend all possible support and
assistance. Thus, on the directions of the respective DMs, meeting was
held with respective Sub-Divisional Magistrates (SDM), Tehsildars, Pawaris,
Land Record Section Officers and Staff, to collect revenue maps for the
affected villages.
At headquarters, the khasra maps collected from the revenue department and
project area maps were scanned; scanned revenue maps were superimposed
on the submergence area maps. This exercise was carried-out with the help
of GIS computer software, which aided in jigsaw fit the revenue maps on the
submergence area map. This process helped in adding or eliminating villages
along the submergence area, based on jigsaw fit, and also to delineate the
affected/ impacted zone, i.e., areas within the revenue maps falling within the
full reservoir levels. Thereafter, a list of all the plots/ khasra, likely to be
acquired/ impacted was prepared, which was extensively used to gather the
Right of Records (RoRs). The State of Uttarakhand has computerized and
uploaded RoRs on their website: www.devbhumi.uk.gov.in which was to
collate RoRs of the affected villages. This information although was
downloadable but it was not editable; thus it was re-computerised for the
purpose of analysis and drawing inferences. These analyses lead to
enumeration of affected persons/ families/ land titleholders likely to lose land,
land and homesteads and homesteads only.
A list was prepared for affected persons/ families/ land titleholders, which was
used to identify them in the field for conducting socio-economic survey and
property enumeration in the affected villages. Thus, for the purpose of
enumeration of affected properties within the FRL, this list of affected
persons/ families/ land titleholders was used to enumeration affected private
properties of 100% affected families. A checklist was devised to gather and
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 5: Property Survey Page 3
enumerate affected/ impacted properties.
At the completion of this exercise, final list of 134 affected villages spread in
districts Pithoragarh, Champawat and Almora.
5.4 FIELD WORK
For the purpose of primary data collection, survey coordinator put-together a
survey team, comprising of local educated youths. While engaging them, the
coordinator ensured that the team members (investigators/ surveyors) were
educated, well acquainted with Hindi language (as the schedules were to be
filled-in this language), well versed with the local customs and dialect, etc.
Training was imparted to the members of the survey team, wherein they were
appraised about the purpose of the survey and on the method of
consultations with the affected families/ persons and how to use GPS and
filled-in the survey checklist.
The survey team traversed the submergence area and dam alignment and
visited the affected villages for enumeration of properties. A considerable time
was spent in reaching many of these villages, as these were remotely located
and trekking from the nearest road-head was the only means of reaching
these villages. Upon reaching the affected villages, they contacted the Village
Panchayat/ Panchayat member or secretary and appraised them about the
survey work and required information. Thereafter, the survey team along-
with the village leders, emminant citizens and affected families of the villages
located themselves within the village at an elevation of 680 m MSL for
Pancheshwar MPDP and 420 m MSL for Rupaligad RDP using GPS. From
that location, they conducted consultations and physically enumerated
affected properties and structures.
5.5 DATA COMPILATION, ANALYSIS AND REPORTING
At the end of each day’s work the filled-in data checklists were cleaned for
internal discrepancies. The survey team coordinator ensured that the survey
team members eliminated the internal discrepancies and filled-in the missing
information in the survey schedules. The gathered information was thereafter
computerized. This keyed-in information/data was then analysed and
inferences were drawn using Microsoft Excel computer software.
The Property Survey/ Enumeration Report has been prepared for 134
surveyed villages. As per the property survey conducted in the area a total of
14,047.05 ha of land from both nations would be required for construction of
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 5: Property Survey Page 4
various project appurtenances. Thus, land of the order of 9,058.25 ha and
4,988.8 ha are likely to be acquired from India and Nepal respectively, for
various purposes. The present chapter outlines the Property Survey Report
for submergence area in Indian Portion.
It was assessed that in all there are 1308 affected persons/ families that are
likely to be displace from their homesteads. Project-wise, there are 1283 PAFs
from 59 villages and 25 PAFs from 3 villages in Pancheshwar MPDP and
Rupaligad RDP respectively details are given in Table-5.1.

5.6 LAND REQUIREMENT FOR THE PROJECT AND PROPOSED
ACTIVITIES
The Pancheshwar MPDP and Rupaligad RDP involves land acquisition in India
and Nepal. About land of the order of 9100 ha and 5000 ha of land are likely to
be acquired in India and Nepal respectively, for various project appurtenance.
Hence, a total of 14100 ha of land from both nations would be required for
construction of various project appurtenances. About 8780 ha of land is to be
acquired for Pancheshwar Multipurpose Project and 320 ha for Rupaligad RDP
respectively. Table-5.2 provides the break-up of total land, project
appurtenance-wise, required in both the Nations for the construction or location
of various project appurtenances and/or components.

5.7 ASSESSMENT OF LOSS OF PRIVATE PROPERTIES
As part of the property survey the total number of PAFs/ land titleholder/
shareholders and the quantum of land each PAFs is likely to lose, enumeration
of private assets was also conducted in each of the affected villages. As
already mentioned, there are 1308 PAFs who are likely to be evicted from their
homesteads. As per the survey shall 1308 PAFs lose homesteads, process of
land acquisition. A total 1563 homestead structures would be affected, of
which, 1537 homestead structures would get impacted due to the Pancheshwar
MPDP while 26 of them would get impacted due to the Rupaligad RDP.
It was observed during survey that some of the PAFs have more than one
homestead structure which is likely to get impacted. Besides, other private
assets were also enumerated, such as lavatories, kitchens, cattlesheds, shops,
tanks, etc. As per the survey, 959 separate toilets, 252 separate kitchens
(Separate kitchens and toilets means that a separate structure is constructed
for these respective purposes, which are located within the homestead plot, but
they are not part of the main homestead structure) and 166 cattle sheds and
likely to be affected. The details are given in Table-5.3.

due to the Pancheshwar MPDP. It has been observed from the survey that
there are privately owned fish ponds; in all there 4 fish ponds in the project area
of Pancheshwar MPDP. Table-5.4 depicts village wise details of the other

5.8 COMMUNITY PROPERTIES AND ASSETS
As per the data collected from the property survey of community owned
properties and assets. A consultation was held with the village headman,
village elders and prominent citizens to assess and enumerate community
assets located within the earmarked elevation for the respective projects. An
inventory of all such private assets was prepared which are likely to get
affected due to the process of land acquisition within 680m and 420m MSL
elevations. The village-wise details of community properties is depicted Table-
5.5.
As per the findings of the property survey. It is observed that the community
properties such as Panchayat buildings, temples/ places of worship will be
affected. A total of 115 community buildings and structures were enumerated,
which are likely to be impacted due to the submergence area of both the
projects. Of these, 21 are Panchayat buildings and 94 temples or places of
worship.

5.10 SUMMARY
Subsequent to the delineation of the affected/ impacted zone, the survey team
prepared a list of all the affected khasra/ plot numbers that are within the
project area. A list was prepared for the affected khasra numbers. Thereafter,
the team collected land records, viz., Right of Records (RoRs) of all the
affected villages. Analyses of the RoRs lead to enumeration of affected
persons/ families/ land titleholders likely to lose land, land and homesteads
and homesteads only.
Project Affected Families
It was assessed that in all there are 1536 affected persons/ families that are
likely to be displace/ evicted from their homesteads. The same PAFs would
also lose their lands as well. Further, there are 29715 land titleholders/ project
affected persons/ families who are likely to lose only their lands.
In all there are 1563 homesteads structures, 990 separate lavatories, 252
separate kitchens, 166 cattle-sheds that would be impacted as a result of the
process of land acquisition. In addition, 3 shops, 4 tanks for storing drinking
water, 4 fish tanks will also be affected.
Community Properties
During the property enumeration, community properties such as Panchayat
buildings, temples, water tanks constructed by the irrigation department for
drinking water, hand pumps, etc were enumerated. As per our survey, a total of
21 Panchayat buildings and 94 temples and places of worship are likely to be
impacted due to the submergence area of the both the projects.
Government Buildings
As per the property survey, a total of 98 government buildings were
enumerated, which are likely to be impacted due to the submergence area of
both the projects. A total of 3 post offices, 5 primary health centres, 29 primary
schools, and 14 secondary schools were enumerated as likely to be impacted.
Water Supply Facilities
1 dug well, 14 water tanks and 2 hand pumps that are also likely to be affected.

CHATER-6
SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
6.1 INTRODUCTION
A project of this magnitude is likely to entail both positive as well as negative
impacts on the socio-cultural fabric of the project area and its surroundings. At
present, most of the population is engaged in agriculture. During construction
and operation phases, a lot of allied activities will mushroom in the project area.
It is felt that most of the labour force would come from various parts of the
country. However, some of the locals would also be employed to work in the
project. The labour force would stay near to the project construction sites. Apart
from direct employment, opportunities for indirect employment will also be
generated which would provide great impetus to the economy of the local area.
Various types of business like shops, food-stall, tea stalls, etc. besides a variety
of suppliers, traders, transporters will concentrate here and benefit immensely
as demand will increase significantly for almost all types of goods and services.
The business community as a whole will be benefitted. The locals will avail
these opportunities arising from the project and increase their income levels.
With the increase in the income levels, there will be an improvement in the
infrastructure facilities in the area. The educational, health, social services,
communication, etc. are some of the sectors which will improve greatly as a
result of the upcoming project. The quality of life of the locals including women
will improve as a result of the project.
On the contrary the project will also lead to certain negative impacts. The most
important negative impact due to the commissioning of the project would be
that a number of families would be displaced from their lands, homesteads and
economic activity. Besides, certain impacts are likely to emerge due to inter-
mixing of the native population with the expatriate labour force. Differences in
social, cultural and economic conditions among the natives and labour force
may lead to some vices among the natives. However, most of the deleterious
impacts, which have been elaborated in the following sections, could be
prevented, if timely interventions are administered.
6.2 IMPACTS DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE
It is expected that a lot of labour force will be deployed at the project site during
the construction phase and the total increase in population during peak
construction has been estimated to the tune of 22,600. Together with the work
force many business establishment will take place which will attract people from
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 2
other places. Influx of labour population might lead to number of social, cultural,
economic and security related problems. However, it is evident that the local
residents will have an upper hand in the establishments of any business
ventures.
6.2.1 Local employment opportunities
A number of marginal activities and jobs would also be available to the local
population during construction phase. Marginal jobs such as those of unskilled
labour, drivers, cooks, peripheral shops, peons and messengers etc. would
open up for the locals. However, such opportunities would be limited.
The scope for a number of non-project activities, especially in business and
self-employment sector, job opportunities, will increase tremendously during
construction phase. Business opportunities such as tea stalls, eating joints and
restaurants, fruits and vegetables vending shops, hiring of vehicles, Photostat,
internet café, mechanic and repair shops (of electrical & mechanical types),
small hotels, boarding and lodging provisions, etc would boom. It is felt that a
large number of enterprising locals in the vicinity of the project area would reap
benefits of such business and self-employment opportunities.
6.2.2 Construction workforce related influence on social services
(Educational, Health, Communication, Water Supply, Consumer
Goods, and Sanitation etc.)
During construction phase a large labour force, including skilled, semi-skilled
and un-skilled labour force, is expected to immigrate into the project area Some
of the locals would also be employed to work in the project. The labour force
would stay near to the project construction sites. Education will receive a shot
in the arm. The advantages of education to secure jobs will quickly percolate
through all sections of the population and will induce people to get their children
educated. A sizeable amount of surplus generated through labour will be spent
on education.
The labour force that would work in the construction phase would settle around
the project site. They would temporarily reside there. This may lead to pollution,
due to generation of domestic wastewater, human waste, municipal solid waste
etc. Besides, other deleterious impacts are likely to emerge due to inter-mixing
of the local communities with the labour force. Differences in social, cultural and
economic conditions among the locals and labour force could also lead to
friction between the migrant labour population and the local population.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 3
6.2.3 Construction workforce related influence on law and order
Certain impacts are likely to emerge due to inter-mixing of the local
communities with the expatriate labour force. Differences in social, cultural and
economic conditions among the locals and labour population could become a
reason of friction between the migrant labour population and the local
population.
6.2.4 Construction related influence on occupational health, community
health, and Accidental risks
The labour would be vulnerable to accidents, if appropriate management
measures are not undertaken during project construction phase. The
construction phase of any project is rather an unsettled stage characterized by
uncertainties and often disorders. The basic problem relates to management of
large population which migrates to the construction area in search of jobs.
The labour population involved in construction activities may immigrate into the
project area is likely to have different cultural, ethnic and social backgrounds.
Such a mixture of population has its own advantages and disadvantages. The
advantages include exchange of ideas and cultures between various groups of
people which would not have been possible otherwise. Due to longer residence
of this population in one place, a new culture, having a distinct socio-economic
identity would develop which will have its own entity.
The benefits however, are always not a certainty and depend on several
factors. Often, they are directly related to the way construction phase is
handled by the project authorities and their sensitivity to various socio-
economic problems that could develop during this phase.
It is normally experienced that untreated sewage would find its way into natural
drainage system, and is likely to get collected as pools of sewage or it out-falls
into the nearest water body along natural drainage pattern. Thus, it is important
to provide appropriate sewage treatment facilities at the labour camp and at the
construction site prior to disposal on land or in water body. The garbage
comprising of waste materials, e.g. packaging, polythene or plastic materials
are likely to be generated during project construction and operation phase at
the power station. The same needs to be properly collected and disposed at
designated sites.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 4
6.2.5 Improved access facilities in the project area
Development of the proposed Pancheshwar Multi-purpose project will have
multifold beneficial impacts. The immediate beneficial impacts from the project
will be improved connectivity by the road. The improved road access will bring
an improvement of food security situation and overall economic and social
stability. The improved access road will also provide cheap, safe and fast
transport of goods and services from rural areas to urban centers and vice
versa. This will contribute significantly to improve the overall socio-economic
condition of the people.
6.2.6 Impacts on infrastructure
The availability of infrastructure is generally a problem during the initial
construction phase. Though the construction workers would be willing to pay for
certain facilities like health, education, etc., the facilities itself are often not
made available timely and of the desired quality. The adequacy of water supply,
sewage treatment, housing etc. should, therefore, be ensured before and
adequate measures would be taken at the very start of the project.
6.2.7 Impacts on public health due to migrant population
About 8500 labourers, technical staff and service providers will congregate in
the project area during peak construction phase. The total increase in
population is expected to be of the order of 22,600. Most of the labour would
come from various parts of the country. The labourer would live in dormitories
provided by the Contractor. Proper sanitary facilities are generally provided.
Hence, a proper surveillance and immunization schedule needs to be
developed for the labour population migrating into the project area.
6.2.8 Increased incidence of vector-borne diseases due to excavations
The excavation of earth from borrow pits etc. is one of the major factor for the
increase in prevalence of malaria. After excavation of construction material, the
depressions are generally left without treatment where water gets collected.
These pools of water, then serves as breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
However, in the present case, the borrow areas are within the river bed, which
in any case remain under water. Thus, no additional habitat for mosquito
breeding is created due to excavation. The flight of mosquito is generally limited
up to 1 to 2 km from the breeding sites. Since, no residential areas are located
within 1 km from the reservoir periphery, increased incidences of malaria are
not anticipated. However, labour camps, etc. could be vulnerable to increased
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 5
incidence of malaria, if proper measures for drainage and mosquito control are
not undertaken.
6.2.9 Impacts on public health due to inadequate facilities in labour
camps
Improperly planned labour camps generally tend to become slums, with
inadequate facilities for potable water supply and sewage treatment and
disposal. This could lead to outbreak of epidemics of water-borne diseases.
Adequate measures for supply of potable water and sewage treatment have
been recommended as a part of Environmental Management Plan outlined in
Volume-II of this Report.
6.2.10 Loss of Historical and Cultural Monuments and Mineral Reserves
The reservoir so constructed as a result of construction of the dam will not
submerge any monument notified by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
However, about 89 temples are likely to be submerged. Among these
temples, three temples located at Pancheshwar, Rameshwar and
Taleshwar are the major temples which are revered not only by the locals but
also by the people in the surrounding areas. The main deity in these three
temples is Lord Shiva. The temple at Pancheshwar is located about 2.5 km
upstream of dam site at the confluence of rivers Sarju and Mahakali. The R.L.of
the temple is about 450 m. Thus, the depth of the reservoir water above this
temple will be 230 m. The temple at Rameshwar is situated at the confluence of
rivers Sarju and Ramganga. The R.L. at this site is 550 m. The depth of the
water above the temple will be about 130 m. The other major temple is at
Taleshwar along the banks of river Mahakali, about 10 km upstream of
Jhulaghat. The depth of water above this temple would be about 120 m. The
reservoir depth over the above mentioned temples sites are too high (120 m to
250 m) to be protected by engineering structures. Thus, these temples will
be submerged as a result of the projects.
6.2.11 Impacts on Mineral Resources
No mineral deposits are coming under submergence due to the reservoir. The
project and its surrounding areas have little or no mineral deposits.
6.3 IMPACTS DURING OPERATION PHASE
Although there are a number of positive impacts of the proposed project,
certain negative impacts will also be there, which are described in the following
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 6
paragraphs.
6.3.1 Impacts due to acquisition of land and homesteads
It was assessed that in all there are 1536 affected persons/ families that are
likely to be displace/ evicted from their homesteads. The same PAFs would
also lose their lands as well. Further, there are 29715 land titleholders/ project
affected persons/ families who are likely to lose only their lands.
In all there are 1563 homesteads structures, 990 separate lavatories, 252
separate kitchens, 166 cattle-sheds that would be impacted as a result of the
process of land acquisition. In addition, 3 shops, 4 tanks for storing drinking
water, 4 fish tanks will also be affected.
The risks involved due to acquisition of land and homestead are given as below:
Expropriation of land removes the main foundation on which people build
productive systems, commercial activities, and livelihoods. Often land is
lost forever, sometimes it is partially replaced, and seldom is it fully
replaced or fully compensated. This is the principal form of de-
capitalization and pauperization of displaced people, as they lose both
natural and man-made capital
Loss of wage employment occurs on account of acquisition of agriculture
land, yet creation of new jobs is difficult and requires substantial
investment. Resulting unemployment or underemployment among
resettlers endures long after physical relocation has been completed.
Loss of housing and shelter may be only temporary for many displaced
families, but for some homelessness remains a chronic condition
Marginalization occurs when families lose economic power and slide on
a downward mobility path middle-income farm - households do not
become landless, they become small land holders, small shopkeepers’
and craftsmen downsize and slip below poverty thresholds. Relative
marginalization often begins long before actual displacement; for
instance when lands are identified for future flooding they are implicitly
devalued, as new public and private infrastructure investment are
prohibited and the expansion of social services is also not done
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 7
6.3.2 Impoverishment Risk Assessment (IRA)
In project feasibility and preparation studies, the IRA performs two basic
functions. Foremost, it serves as a diagnostic and predictive tool, to anticipate
risks in resettlement and to assess their nature and their expected intensity.
Secondly, IRA is also used as a problem resolution and planning function, to
guide the incorporation of measures matching each main risk, either for
prevention or mitigation. The IRA identifies impoverishment not only in terms of
income, but also in terms of employment opportunities, health care, nutrition,
food security, common assets, education, shelter or social capital.
The IRA framework has been synthesized from the knowledge of past
experiences, which saves considerable time and effort in feasibility work by not
demanding general risk analysis to start afresh in each project, but rather by
ex-ante offering a well-tested starting point. The matrix of eight basic risks in
light of historical experience, predictable in most resettlement situations:
landlessness, joblessness, homelessness, marginalization, increased morbidity
and mortality, food insecurity, loss of access to common property, and social
(community) disarticulation. Each of these risks is discussed in Table-6.1.

of displaced people, as they
lose both natural and man-
made capital.
The villagers depend on their
lands for their livelihood. In
addition, there are a number
of families that are
dependent on these lands
for their livelihood, who work
as agricultural labour work
force. Acquisition of lands
would invariably affect their
means of livelihood and
sustenance.

underemployment among

Resulting unemployment or
underemployment among
resettlers endures long after
physical relocation has been
completed. There are a
number of PAFs who are
dependent on agricultural
land. The submergence of
this land would adversely
affect the job opportunities in
the area.
3. Homelessness Loss of housing and shelter
may be only temporary for
many displaced families, but for
some homelessness remains a
chronic condition.
Homelessness would be an
issue for these families
losing homestead.
Villagers have a special
bonding with their land and
properties which they never
like to part with. The
submergence of the project
will cause displacement of
the Abadi population pushing
them towards forced
transition from one place to
another which may be a
strange place for them. This
transition will cause stress
and unnecessary pressure
on their day to day lives.
4. Marginalization Marginalization occurs when
families lose economic power
and slide on a downward
mobility path middle-income
farm - households do not
become landless, they become
small landholders, small
shopkeepers’ and craftsmen
downsize and slip below

This aspect needs to be
carefully and sensitively
assessed, as the main
source of sustenance, ie.,
land would be acquired and
thus the main source of
income and livelihood is
gone; the possibility of many
of the PAFs would become
marginalized. As mentioned
there are land titleholders
that would lose land due to
the process of land
acquisition.

flooding they are implicitly
devalued as new public and
private infrastructure investment
are prohibited and the
expansion of social service is
undercut.
It is felt that only a few
families/ individuals that
would be able to bear the
brunt of land acquisition. For
the remaining the possibility
of sliding on a downward
mobility path would be
inevitable unless alternative
sources of livelihood are not
provided.
5. Increased
Morbidity and
Mortality
Serious decreases in health
levels result from displacement
caused social stress, insecurity,
psychological trauma and out-
break of relocation related
illnesses particularly water-
borne and vector-borne
diseases.
Unsafe water supply and poor
sewerage system increase
vulnerability to epidemic and
chronic diarrhea, dysentery etc.
The weakest segments of the
demographic spectrum, viz.,
infants, children and the elderly
are severely affected the most.
Fluctuations in morbidity and
mortality rates would depend
on the displacement related
social stress, insecurity,
psychological trauma. Out-
break of illnesses particularly
water-borne and vector-
borne diseases can be
envisaged. But these would
depend on the kind of civic
amenities provided at the
relocation or at the labour
camps, where the labour
would be housed.
Health indicators could also
fluctuate due to the presence
of labour colonies that have
come to work in the plant
construction. Thus it is
imperative to provide proper
civic amenities in these
colonies as well.
6.4 IMPACTS DUE TO COMMAND AREA DEVELOPMENT
6.4.1 Improvement in agriculture production
The project envisages irrigation over an area of 2.59 lakh ha. With the
introduction of irrigation, not only the irrigation intensity will improve, but also
the cropping intensity will improve. The introduction of irrigation will also lead to
improvement in agriculture productivity as well.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 10
The total agriculture production would increase resulting in increase in
agriculture production. The increase in crop production would also increase the
income level, which is a significant positive impact.
6.4.2 Improvement in livestock
The improvement in the socio-economic status of the population in the
command area will indirectly improve the quality of livestock. The main reasons
could be improvement in the supply and availability of the veterinary services
along with the betterment in the infrastructure facilities in the area.
During project operation phase, food grain production will increase significantly.
Assuming even 50% of agriculture by product is usable as fodder, hence, it
would satisfy the fodder requirements of large number of cattles. This will
reduce the pressure on the existing forests or vegetation of the area, which is a
significant positive impact. The project would also improve the water availability
for livestock. The coupled with improved fodder availability improve the
livestock status of the area. It has been observed in other Irrigation Projects the
number of livestock does not increase significantly. It is the quality of livestock
that show similar improvement. Similar impacts are envisaged in the proposed
Project as well.
6.4.3 Employment generation
The increase in the irrigation intensity in the command area would improve the
employment scenario to a large extent. The introduction of irrigation requires a
greater amount of labour in fields. This would improve the employment scenario
not only for the local farmers, but would also increase the demand for
agricultural labour. On average, labour demand in irrigated and unirrigated field
is 200 man-days/ year/ ha and 100 man-days/ha/year. The employment
potential in with out -project phase for a cropped area of 2, 45,000 ha have
about 24.5 million which will increase to 49.0 million man-days in project
operation phase. Thus, with the increase in the irrigation intensity, manpower
requirement in the agriculture sector would increase by 24.5 million man days
per year.
As per the general definition, a main worker is defined as one who is engaged
in any economically productive activity for at least for 183 days or six months in
a year. Thus, the increased irrigation intensity will ensure employment to about
1, 33,000 persons per year. This is a significant positive impact.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 6: Social Impact Assessment Page 11
6.4.4 Urbanization
The commissioning of the project will increase the gross money flow in the
command area. This will lead to significant impacts in the project area. The
area will have increased demands for services, such as sewerage system,
communication, transportation, medical and educational facilities, etc. It is
presumed that all these developments would result in generation of additional
employment. Thus, with the increased income level, there will be a greater
impact for urbanization in the command area.

CHAPTER- 7
RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION PLAN
7.1 INTRODUCTION
The Pancheshwar MPDP and Rupaligad RDP are located in the mountainous
state of Uttarakhand; many of the affected villages are remotely located and
accessed by footpath, by varying distances from the nearest road-head. A
project of this magnitude is likely to impact 123 villages by the Pancheshwar
MPDP and 11 villages by the Rupaligad RDP due to the process of land
acquisition for various purposes. The deleterious impacts would include
submergence and or acquisition of land, primarily cultivated lands and
orchards, eviction of families from their homesteads, acquisition of other private
properties, community property resources, and government assets. Thus, all
such assets and properties that are likely to be impacted would require to be
compensated. Therefore, it is essential to spell out the loss which is likely to be
incurred due to the process of land acquisition. This would enable project
planners to either look for less impacting options or to take appropriate
measures to devise suitable compensation and R&R package as a solace to
the PAFs.
This chapter details-out the enumeration of various properties and assets that
are likely to be affected due to the process of land acquisition for the
Pancheshwar MPDP and Rupaligad RDP. The Compensation shall be awarded
to the affected population on the guidelines of the “The Right to Fair
Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and
Resettlement Act 2013”. The details of the private land been acquired is given
in Tables-7.1 and 7.2 summarize the Project wise PAFs losing land &

7.2 RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION PLAN
For the purpose of this project, the R&R plan has been devised using the
norms and guidelines of the “Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in
Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013”. The Consultant
based on past experiences in similar projects, in the area have
suggested/specified/ augmented/ enhanced the R&R provisions. The objective
of the R&R Plan is to enable project planners to take appropriate measures to
devise suitable compensation as a part of resettlement and rehabilitation
package for the PAFs.
7.2.1 MEASURES FOR COMPENSATION OF LOSS OF PRIVATE
PROPERTIES
7.2.1.1 Compensation for Land

Chapter 8: Livelihood Plan Page 1
CHAPTER – 8
LIVELIHOOD PLAN FOR PAFS WHO ARE LIKELY TO LOSE
ENTIRE LANDS
8.1 INTRODUCTION
The livelihood Plan shall be given to those PAFs who are likely to be loose
major proportion of their land holdings. The families loosing land under
reservoir submergence shall be covered under Livelihood Plan. A total of 1308
PAF are likely to lose homestead and 31023 PAFs are likely to lose land under
reservoir submergence. As part of Income generating activities, following
activities are proposed.
Livestock rearing
Horticulture
Bee Keeping
Eco-tourism
Training for skill development
8.2 LIVESTOCK REARING
Livestock requiring is quite common in the project affected families. It is
proposed that for about 1308 PAFs, 4 cows/buffalos shall be given to each
family. Thus, about 1600 cows / buffaloes shall be purchased. The cost of a
cow/buffalo has been taken as Rs.25,000/-. Thus, total amount spent on each
PAFs shall be Rs.1.0 lakh. In addition, an amount of Rs.25,000/- can be given
to each PAFs for construction of cattle shed and initial inputs. It is proposed to
conduct following training programmes:
Fodder Demonstration
Demonstrations of use of mineral mixture in daily diet of milch animals
Artificial Insemination and natural Breeding in Cow and Buffalo
Training and Exposure of PAFs
Technical Training of Veterinarians instrumental in implementation of
various activities.
Fodder plays a vital role in livestock production. The health and productivity is
directly proportional to quality and balance feeding. The main purpose of this
activity is to educate the farmers about the need of feeding green fodder to
cattle. There are two ways of fodder production i.e. overlapping cropping and
Relay cropping. In overlapping cropping a fodder is introduced in the field
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 8: Livelihood Plan Page 2
before the other crop completes its life-cycle. In relay cropping, the fodder
crops are grown in succession, i.e. one after another, the gap between the two
crops being very small. Both practices can be taken at field level.
The deficit of green fodder and lack of pasture land has great impact on
increase in number of infertility amongst milch animals. Mineral deficient cow
and buffalo not only shows reduction in wet period but also having poor health
and reduced auto immune system to fight with adverse environment condition.
The demonstration of use of mineral mixture has been envisaged to educate
the farmers for adoption and continuity in daily diet of milch animals.
It is proposed to develop a quality breeding service through commissioning of
Artificial Insemination Centres in project area. It is proposed to select and
trainee 200 unemployed educated youth for door to door artificial insemination
and other related activities. Besides this natural breeding center shall also be
established.
To promote better Livestock management practices in the project area, it is
important to provide skill up-gradation training to the PAFs. For imparting
modern techniques of the livestock management, it is necessary to equip the
department staff with such techniques. Thus, it is proposed to further upgrade
the existing skills in the Department of Animal Husbandry through various
trainings on modern livestock management.
An amount of Rs. 1508.0 lakh has been earmarked for livestock development
amongst PAFs. The details are given in Table-8.1.

PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 8: Livelihood Plan Page 6
8.6 TOURISM DEVELOPMENT
The reservoir will have great tourism potential and it can create many income
generating resources to the local people in many ways viz ; boating, angling
competition, guide, creation of the paying guest houses, travelers’ tour
packages to the nearby sight-seeing places, development of camping sites,
birds watching etc. This must be linked with the ecology environment of the
reservoir. For the development of the tourism, brochures, pamphlets, signage,
models, opening of the tourism information centers, Telescopes, Binoculars,
computerized data, trekking routes and their stay arrangements etc shall be
required.
The following activities are proposed for the development of the eco-tourism
zone:

Chapter 8: Livelihood Plan Page 7
The Committee shall review and oversee the conservation work to be undertaken
8.7 WOMEN SELF HELP GROUPS
The livelihood plan will be implemented through Women Self Help Groups. This
will enable PAFs, to form their own SHG, link them to credit access and
sustainable livelihoods opportunities.
The SHGs shall follow the standard SHG parameters of forming around some
social affinity and mutual trust basis; same gender, regular savings, and inter-
loaning. A SHG shall have around 10-15 members. These SHGs will be
provided support for mobilization, nurturing and SHG formation, financial
management, and development of group solidarity and access skills. As the
SHGs attain certain maturity and became capable of handling key management
issues within the SHG, they will be developed to formulate their own livelihood
plan. The SHGs shall initially start off with thrift and credit through rotation of
the SHG members’ fund, promoted to adopt specific livelihood activities in
gradual phase.
The SHG serves the purpose of providing women members’ space for self-
help, mutual cooperation and collective action for social and economic
development. It promotes savings, build own funds and becomes the local
financial institution to provide a range of financial services including providing
credit for debt-swapping and livelihoods.
The key elements of the SHGs strategy are:
Self-determined group membership and group norms;
Homogeneity in group membership;
Group determined savings and inter-loaning norms;
Initial inter-loaning from own savings for easing consumption
Social capital for providing support services;
CCL from banks to augment capital to meet various credit needs of
the members.
Utilization of Livelihood Support Fund (LSF)
The Self Help Groups shall be implemented in a phased manner. The first
phase included formation and capacity building of self-managed primary
institutions known as SHGs. During the second phase, some of these mature
primary level institutions (SHGs) were promoted to adopt livelihood
enhancement and income generation activities in the cluster. For
implementation of livelihoods and income generation activities amongst the
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 8: Livelihood Plan Page 8
SHG members of project villages, the approach adopted is based on various
development milestones of SHGs, which are as follows:
Pre-formation (2-3 months): Profiling and assessment of the poor women;
initial interactions
Formation (6 months): Organizing and nurturing, developing norms,
Practicing Panchasutra (Regular meetings; Regular savings; Regular inter-
loaning; Timely repayment; and Up-to-date books of accounts), Developing
Micro Credit Plan, Leadership development
Linkages (6-24 months): Capacity Building, Micro Credit Plan, Linkages
with Banks
Beyond (2nd year onwards): Visioning/Plan, Livelihoods, New Products,
Social Capital
After completion of first phase, skill based market-led training will be imparted
to the members of SHG during the second phase based on skill assessment of
members of SHG. For implementation of livelihoods development program
amongst women beneficiaries of project villages, a multi pronged strategy will
be adopted for identification of good training institutes, which are capable to
impart necessary skill based market-led training to the members of SHG at their
own doorstep.
In the second phase, for implementation of livelihoods development program on
large scale amongst the SHGs of the project villages, it has been planned to
provide Livelihood Support Fund (LSF) of Rs.45000/- to the SHGs, which have
qualified the credit rating as per maturity index and prepared their own
livelihoods development plan in two tranches:
LSF- 1:- First tranche of Rs. 15,000/- to be provided to those WSHG, which
have qualified in A or B category in the WSHG assessment and have
developed their Micro Credit Plan.
LSF-2:- Second tranche of Rs. 30,000/- to be provided to those WSHG, which
have utilized LSF-1 grant within 3 months and members have refunded the
same to the WSHG and / or the CCL has been sanctioned by the Bank.
It is proposed to develop 3,000 SHGs. An amount of Rs. 1350 lakh has been
earmarked for this purpose.
The self-help groups will have to exhibit adequate maturity in order to receive
cost support from the project. The maturity status/level will be assessed on the
basis of maturity index/indicators summarized in Table-8.7.

CHAPTER–9
LOCAL AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN
9.1 INTRODUCTION
The present chapter outlines the Local Area Development Plan (LADP) for
Pancheshwar Project. The objective of the plan is to empower the families of
the study area villages. Contrarily, it is the project affected families residing in
affected who are not likely to benefit from the proposed project except for
compensation of their acquired properties, which would be mostly part of their
lands. Thus, LADP is being framed to extend benefits to not only the residents
of the affected villages, but also to residents of the villages adjoining to project
area which are also within the study area villages.
The following aspects have been covered under the Local Area Development
Plan:
Educational Facilities
Health Care and Medical Facilities
Infrastructure Development
Economic Development
Social and Cultural Development
A budget of 0.5% of the project cost has been earmarked for implementation of
Local Area Development Plan (LADP) which is 168 Crore.
9.2 LOCAL AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN
9.2.1 Up gradation of Educational Facilities
It is proposed to upgrade the primary schools in 25 villages in the periphery of
the affected villages. The following activities are proposed under LADP
activities:
Up-gradation of school fixtures, equipment
Improvement of drinking water facilities
School bus service
It is suggested to upgrade school fixtures, equipment, etc., and to improve
drinking water facilities in one primary school in 25 study area villages. A lump-
sum amount of Rs. 15.0 lakh per primary school is being made for this purpose.
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 9: Local Area Development Plan Page 2
Since 25 primary schools are to be upgraded, an amount of Rs.362.5 lakh
needs to be earmarked for this purpose. In addition, an amount of Rs.200 lakh
has been earmarked for purchase of 10 school vans/mini-buses. Thus, total
lump-sum amount of Rs.562.5 lakh needs to be earmarked for this purpose.
The breakup of cost required for up-gradation of existing primary schools is
given in Table–9.1. The list of villages in which existing primary schools are to
be upgraded is enclosed as Table-9.2.

9.2.2 Scholarships for Students
It is suggested to provide scholarships for local students. For all those students
who are presently studying between Class–I to college, about 100 scholarships
are suggested for them. It is proposed that an amount of Rs. 1000 per month
for a period of 12 years may be extended as scholarship to about 10 students
in each of the 50 Study Area Villages. Thus, a total of 500 students will be
covered under this scheme. These students will then be supported in their
college education as well. Each student will get Rs. 20,000 for meeting their fee
and study material requirement. In addition, they will get Rs. 3000 per month for
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 9: Local Area Development Plan Page 4
meeting their hostel requirements, as they will have to move out of their areas
for higher studies.
In addition, there are youths who have completed school level at present as
well. It is suggested to give an impetus to such youths who wish to pursue
college or higher education. These students will also be supported for college
education. About 500 such students (10 students in each of the 50 Study Area
villages) will be supported by the project. Thus, a total of 1000 students will be
supported for college education.
A total amount of Rs. 2576.0 lakh say Rs. 25.76 Crore may be earmarked for
providing scholarships, as part of local area development plan. The details are

MONITORING AND EVALUATION
10.1 INTRODUCTION
Monitoring is an essential component for sustainability of any water resources
project. It is an integral part of any environmental assessment process. Any
water resources development project introduces complex inter-relationships in
the project area between people, various natural resources, biota and the
developing forces. Thus, a new environment is created. It is very difficult to
predict with complete certainty the exact post-project environmental scenario.
Hence, monitoring of critical parameters is essential in the project operation
phase.
Monitoring of social indicators signal potential problems and facilitate timely
prompt implementation of effective remedial measures. The data so generated
can serve as a data bank for prediction of post-project scenarios in similar
projects.
10.2 INSTITUTIONAL/ADMINISTRATIVE ARRANGEMENT FOR
IMPLEMENTATION OF R&R MEASURES
Appointment of Administrator at State Level
State Government of Uttarakhand shall appoint an officer not below the
rank of Joint Collector or Additional Collector or Deputy Collector or
equivalent official of Revenue Department, who will be responsible for

PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 10: Monitoring & Evaluation Page 3
appropriate Government.
10.3 MONITORING AND EVALUATION
Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) must be simultaneous with the
implementation of Rehabilitation Plan. It requires specialized skill for application
of general project monitoring procedures to the process of land acquisition and
rehabilitation. Conventional monitoring, normally carried out by the Government
machinery, often misses focus on certain vital aspects and does not identify
certain shortcomings, which may otherwise prove very important. While the
conventional government monitoring will continue, an external M&E agency will
also be engaged to help in proper monitoring of land acquisition and
rehabilitation programs. The main purpose of involving such an agency is to
bring the problems and difficulties faced by the PAFs to the notice of
Administrator R&R on a regular basis for their redressal as well as to help in
formulating and undertaking corrective measures. The external Monitoring and
Evaluation (M&E) agency can submit half yearly reports on the progress of
implementing Rehabilitation Master Plan (RMP) along with suggestions and
corrective measures required for improvement in the implementation of
Rehabilitation Plan.
For Land Acquisition and rehabilitation program, M&E system will consist of:
i) Administrative monitoring;
ii) Socio-economic performance, and
iii) Impact evaluation.
Administrative monitoring will be conventionally carried out by SLAO, project
authorities, Resettlement Commissioner and other concerned government
agencies/departments. The focus will be on physical (like number of land
holders affected and land based resettlement, area identified for allotment to
Village Level Committee, etc.) and financial (like compensation paid, payment
to M&E agency, office establishment cost, etc.) parameters.
The socio-economic monitoring which will be carried out concurrently is the
crux of M&E exercise to provide interim measures based on the field level
situations. This along-with impact evaluation at the end of plan period will be
carried out by the M&E agency. While covering the affected community,
monitoring will focus on the vulnerable groups like women, physically
handicapped, etc. The household information collected through the socio-
economic survey will form the benchmarks for comparison. However, these
benchmarks will be supplemented in order to create new reference points
against performance, effects and objectives.

10.3.1 Monitoring and Evaluation Guidelines
Monitoring of the progress of R&R is important because of the sensitivity of
these issues. The objective of monitoring is to assess the progress of
resettlement activity, to identify difficulties, ascertain problem areas, and
provide indication for the need of calling attention to some specific issues at an
early stage. Following tasks have to be performed by the group at different
stages of the project:
Establish baseline information on individual PAFs and their pre-
project standards of living, health conditions, nutritional patterns, etc.
This should precede resettlement in general by a year.
The planning of the resettlement monitoring studies could cover
disbursement of compensation and grants.
Monitoring of resettlement sites regarding, preparation of land,
construction activities, water and other facilities required before the
actual resettling of PAFs.
The resettlement monitoring system could cover transport of people,
belongings and allocation of replacement assets. Their report should
also include information on performance of field staff and concerned
official’s participation of the PAFs and host community reactions.
After resettlement, a few sensitive indicators using sample survey
techniques should be measured, mainly to understand how effective
the R&R plan has been in reality.
The monitoring and evaluation can continue for several years after
actual relocation. The frequency of monitoring can be reduced after
the completion of R&R work. The monitoring reports need to be
submitted periodically to assess progress of resettlement and its
effects compared with established policy and specific timetables and
benchmarks at each phase.
10.3.2 Post-Project Monitoring
Status of availability of alternative homestead for project affected persons,
development of infrastructural facilities such as schools, sewer networks, roads,
etc. are some of the aspects which could be considered for monitoring and
modifications may be suggested if required. It needs to be appreciated that
R&R issues are politically and socially sensitive issues and need timely
attention. For such reasons, it is suggested that the monitoring be conducted by
an independent agency not connected with the project. Therefore, an
independent Consultant having experience in monitoring & evaluation of
implementation of Resettlement & Rehabilitation Plans in similar areas and not
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 10: Monitoring & Evaluation Page 5
connected with the project can be appointed for monitoring the project. The
Consultant will review the rehabilitation and resettlement programme after 2nd,
4th and 6th year from the completion of the R&R activity.
10.3.3 Participation of PAFs
Involvement of affected communities in planning and implementation of
rehabilitation programs according to their felt needs and socio-economic
conditions are of vital importance. To obtain co-operation, participation and
feedback, PAFs need to be systematically informed and consulted during
preparation and implementation of resettlement plan about their options and
rights. In the proposed project, co-operation and participation of PAFs in the
resettlement process could be ensured through their involvement in each of the
following stages.
Involvement in preparation of Rehabilitation Master Plan
As a part of participatory planning, community meetings should be held on a
routine basis to explain about the project and the R&R policy of the project.
Direct communication with the PAFs will negate the politicization of the R&R
Process. The communication with the PAFs can be through the Village Level
Committee.
Involvement of PAFs in implementation process
The Village Level Committee can be involved in the implementation of
Rehabilitation Plan particularly during the identification of forest land to be
allotted to Village Level Committee. They shall also be consulted in finding out
alternative economic opportunities to supplement their household income.
However, some NGO groups can also be associated which can interact directly
with the project authorities and the affected population.
10.3.4 Parameters for Monitoring and Evaluation of R&R Plan
Once the R&R Plan is implemented, affected families should not be forgotten.
Their progress should be monitored, evaluated and recorded. This would
greatly help the government or other organizations for further improving the
Rehabilitation and Resettlement guidelines. It would form a basis of evaluating
whether the resettlement has been a success or not. If the resettlement has not
been successful, the answers would come out at this stage and the same
mistakes can be avoided for other resettlement schemes.
Priorities that would have to be monitored and evaluated are; is the family's
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 10: Monitoring & Evaluation Page 6
income more or less in their new location? Do they inter-mingle with the host
population? If not, why? Has their standard of living increased or decreased?
Are health and education facilities more accessible to them? Have new
opportunities come their way or have they stagnated? etc. Such questions
would prove invaluable in assessing the success of the resettlement scheme.
Progress report of their resettlers should be maintained. The progress report
format should include among others the following:
Total household covered under the R&R plan:
(1) No of families
(2) Population
Birth and Death information:
(1) No. of children born
(2) No. of deaths
Income and expenditure (monthly) pattern of the resettlers
(1) Average monthly income (with its break up)
(2) Average monthly expenditure (with its break-up)

(2) Constructions completed
(3) Materials used
(4) Size of construction
Credit facilities availed:
(1) No. of resettled families that have availed of credit

(2) Good (over 50%)
(3) Bad (below 20%)
Agricultural inputs;
(1) Seeds (kg)
(2) Fertilizers (kg)
(3) Pesticides (kg)
PANCHESHWAR MULTIPURPOSE PROJECT SIA Study Report
Chapter 10: Monitoring & Evaluation Page 7
Agricultural Production:
(1) Annual cereal productions (kg)
(2) Cash crop productions (kg)
(3) Other farm produces (kg)
Education facilities:
(1) Primary School

If such a format was included the progress of the resettled families can be
easily monitored and evaluated. However, such a formatted progress report
would have to be up dated annually for a minimum of five years in order to get
an accurate picture.
