6 1.1 Project Description I. INTRODUCTION 1. Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) with a sector project loan funding from Asian Development Bank (ADB) has proposed to implement Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Project (MPUSIP), herein after referred as the Project. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company Limited (MPUDC) shall be the Implementing Agency (IA) and the State Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) shall be the executing agency for the Project. A project management unit (PMU) created under MPUDC is implementing MPUSIP. 2. MPUSIP s physical components include (a) improvements to water in 64 project towns; and (b) sewage and storm water collection and treatment services proposed in two (2) identified towns (Khajuraho, and Rajnagar). 1 The project also includes an institutional strengthening component and a project management and administrative support component. 3. This Indigenous Peoples Planning Framework (IPPF) for MPUSIP outlines the objectives, policy principles and procedures for compensation and other assistance measures for tribal people who may be displaced/ affected due to project implementation. A detailed description of each compensation measure and assistance is provided in the entitlement matrix Overview 4. The state of Madhya Pradesh counts for highest Schedule Tribe (ST) population in India 2. However, desk review of the Census 2011 data of the 128 towns where the programme is proposed reveals that out of the total population in 128 towns (2,697,091) percent (481,700) belongs to Schedule Caste category and 6.19 percent (167,066) is Schedule Tribe. To achieve the overall goal of the programme an understanding of how social elements influence poverty, inequality, and vulnerability is important. 1.3 Scope of Indigenous People Planning Framework (IPPF) 5. The IPPF has been developed to manage and mitigate possible impacts to the indigenous people in the investment program area. 6. The IPPF sets out the policy, principles, and implementation mechanisms to address such impacts according to ADB s Safeguards Policy Statement (SPS) requirement no. 3 on indigenous people (IP). During the course of project identification and social impact assessment, if any IPs are identified, the impacts (both positive and negative) of the subproject component on affected groups/communities will be addressed according to the prepared framework. The framework will address the developmental needs of indigenous people/ tribes as a distinct community through a process of sustainable development. 2 Statistical Profile of Scheduled Tribes in India, 2013, a document published by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Statistics Division, Government of India reveals that the state of Madhya Pradesh counts for highest Scheduled Tribe (ST) population in India (14.69 percent). 5 MaRS Planning and Engineering Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

7 7. Tribals constitute 8.61 percent of the total population of the country, with a total population of million (Census 2011). In Madhya Pradesh 46 tribal communities eside. Appendix 1,provides the list of tribal communities in the state of Madhya Pradesh as provided by Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Government of India Distribution of Scheduled Tribes in Madhya Pradesh in Relation to India 8. The tribal population of Madhya Pradesh increased to 15,316,784 in 2011 from12,233,474 in The decadal growth rate during this period is percent. Review of the Census 2011 data of the 128 towns of Madhya Pradesh where the programme is proposed, reveals that out of the total population in 128 towns (2,697,091) percent (481,700) belongs to Schedule Caste category and 6.19 percent (167,066) is Schedule Tribe. 9. The trends in the population of the Scheduled Tribes by residence (total, Rural and Urban) for Census Years shows that the percentage of Scheduled Tribes Population in the Rural Areas (11.3 percent) much higher that Urban Population (2.8 percent). In Madhya Pradesh certain areas have been declared as scheduled area as Specified by the Scheduled Areas under the Sixth Schedule of Indian Constitutions 3. List of Schedule Areas in Madhya Pradesh is provided in Appendix Identification of Indigenous People/Tribal People 10. ADB s Indigenous People Policy uses the following characteristics to define IP: i) self identification as members of a distinct indigenous cultural group and recognition of this identity by others; (ii) collective attachment to geographically distinct habitats or ancestral territories in the project area and to the natural resources in these habitats and territories; (iii) customary cultural, economic, social, or political institutions that are separate from those of the dominant society and culture; and (iv) a distinct language, often different from the official language of the country or region. 11. According to the Census of India 2011, 8.61 percent of the Indian population is classified as ST. In comparison to the national figure, Madhya Pradesh has 14.7 percent of its populations classified as ST. The major tribes of Madhya Pradesh are classified in Appendix 1. 3 Scheduled areas are autonomous areas within a state, administered federally, usually populated by a predominant Scheduled Tribe. 6 MaRS Planning and Engineering Pvt.

Preliminary Screening 12. The preliminary screening of all IP communities and villages within and in the vicinity of the proposed sub-project area. The ULB arranged public meetings at IP communities to provide information regarding the Jaithari Water Supply sub-project. During these 8 MaRS Planning and Engineering Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

10 meetings, community leaders and other participants will be given an opportunity to present their views and concerns. An initial screening will check for the following: o Presence and names of TP community groups in the area; o Cultural and religious distinction of the TP groups vis-à-vis other communities, and mainstreaming of the TP with the dominant population; o Laws and legislations related to TP groups; o Total number of TP community groups and percentage of TP population to total population in the area; o Number and percentage of TP households likely to be affected by the subproject component; and o Initial assessment to also include level of vulnerability of the TP, such as being a (primitive) tribal groups (PTG) and existing socioeconomic conditions that may further deteriorate due to project impact. If such especially vulnerable groups among the TP community are identified within the project area, they warrant special measures for protecting their socio-cultural identity and baseline economic standard. While determining vulnerability of these TP groups, assessment will be made if there is any possibility of future impact due to the project. 13. An IP assessment done on the basis of checklist of SPS The results of the preliminary screening show that there are IP households in the proposed sub-project area, but they are not affected by construction activities during implementation. For their safeguards a social impact assessment (SIA) will be conducted to capture IP issues and development opportunities that exist in the area at preconstruction stage. A checklist format for screening of IPs in the sub projects is in Appendix 3. Preliminary Screening flow chart:- Subproject components requiring IPP for IP in project area Social Safeguard Personnel (DPR Consultant)/PMU,MPUDC conduct preliminary screening Based on findings of screening,category will be finalized and accordingly SIA/DDR will be prepared. 5. Categorization 14. The proposed subproject, Jaithari Water Supply is classified as Category B for Indigenous people impact,as proposed investment will have positive impacts on IPs living in the project town. 15. The impacts on indigenous people households are potentially positive, measures will be undertaken to ensure that benefits are equally shared between IP and non IP population. 9 MaRS Planning and Engineering Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

11 It will be ensured indigenous peoples as stakeholders take part during all stages of the investment program. 5. Strategy for tribal people s participation i) Consultations and information disclosure are an integral part of IPP preparation in order to ensure that the priorities, preferences, and needs of the tribal groups have been taken into consideration adequately. With that objective in view, a strategy for consultation with tribal communities and their leaders will be developed so that these are conducted in a participatory manner. The MPUDC/ PIU, MPUDC/ULB representatives will be part of evolving that strategy and consultation process. Table 1. Summary of Public consultation with Indigenous people Date Location No. of Participan ts Participants Topics Discussed Issues 27 th Jan., 2016 Slum area ward 4 (having maximum IP populatio n) M=10 F=8 T=18 Residential welfare Association Briefing on project objectives probable implementation procedures Potential positive and negative impacts due to project implementation Experiences sharing on - livelihood activities, Resettlement and Rehabilitation, women empowerment, tribal development, health, education, convergence with existing government social security schemes etc. Grievance Redress procedures Active participation during implementation None of the people knew about the proposed project. On learning about the project, they expressed that they were happy that the entire community would be benefited from the upgraded water supply. The area has insufficient and inadequate drinking water resource. They purchase water from private source and have to pay INR 200 per month (per family). The area faces severe water crisis during the summer when the ground water level drops. The community willingly accepts the project and are willing to pay user charges Most of the community people are daily wage workers.people are 10 MaRS Planning and Engineering Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

12 keen to take up capacity building training for enhancement of skills and income generation activities. ii) The IPs will be actively engaged in all stages of the project cycle, including project preparation, and feedback of consultations with the IPs will be reflected in the project design, followed by disclosure. Their participation in project planning will inform project design, and the TPs should be convinced of their benefits from the project. The awareness material prepared will be translated into the local language of the IPs and made available to them before implementation of the project. iii) Local CBOs/tribal community representatives will be involved in IPP implementation and resolving all issues related to the IP through consultation and facilitation by the PIU/ULB and PMU. The PMU/ULB will ensure adequate flow of funds for consultation and facilitation of planned activities within IP. iv) One project information disclosure (PID) brochure will be prepared, translated into a language understandable to the tribal people, and distributed among them. 6. Jaithari Municipal Parishad - Jaithari falls under scheduled area declared by Government of India. In 2011, the total population of SC (616) and ST (1567) accounted for 7.3% and 18.67% of the total town population (8396), respectively. Overall, SCs and STs accounted for 26.00% (2183) of the total Jaithari population. The sex ratio for SC and ST population in the year 2011 is 915 and 715,respectively. Table 2.

15 8. CONCLUSIONS A. Summary and Conclusions 17. No negative IP impacts are assessed at identified sites and project area for sub-project components, as adequate vacant Government land is available for the proposed facilities. The proposed site for new WTP & 3 OHTs at Jaithari are owned by Revenue and Intake well is proposed to constructed on Water Resource Department Land; NOC for which is received. No involuntary resettlement, displacement or income loss of indigenous people is anticipated as a result of subproject. For linear components (pipe laying) or those proposed along government road RoWs, temporary disruption to road users, pedestrians and community members will be avoided. 18. IPs will be included in project benefits through (a) 100% individual household connection for BPL SC and 100% ST households which will be ensured under the project, (b) the contract will include a provision related to preferential employment of local SC/ST population and women / vulnerable persons available for work, in construction-related work and work related to O&M of project facilities. The contractor will maintain records of such employment, which will be monitored by the PMU. 19. As Jaithari is Scheduled Indigenous area declared by GoI, stringent monitoring to safeguard the rights of IPs will be under taken. Simple and mitigations measures such as provision of access planks will be ensured by the contractor during implementation. Table 5.
