The project will cover only existing tanks and therefore
new land acquisition and physical displacement are
expected to be minimal. However, the main issue is
encroachment in the tank system particularly in tank bed
areas and therefore, due to project interventions, there
are likely to be some adverse effects or impacts on
families and people in the form of losing the encroached
land in the tank area and their livelihood source. To
minimize the adverse effects, there is a need to prepare
a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) and incorporated into
tank level ITDPs. The RAPs shall address socio-economic
issues associated with displacement of families and also
devise strategies and actions to minimize adverse
effects on people and their livelihoods. The state R & R
Unit is responsible for implementation of RAP in the
project districts, which includes providing support,
guidance, and all required assistance to DPUs apart from
regular monitoring of the entire process. Objective
The objective of this policy is to avoid or minimize the possibilities of adverse effect resulting in displacement (physical or economic or both) of people in the project area.
Where displacement is inevitable due to technical reasons of the project design, the objective is to minimize the hardship to the affected families, enhance, or at least restore their livelihood opportunities.

the Integrated Tank Development Plans (ITDPs) prepared
for integrated tanks. Resettlement issues have been
mainstreamed and institutionalized, by which adequate
mechanisms have been put in place for survey of
encroachments, identification of lands required for
project interventions, identification of project
affected families and persons, third party review of
RAPs, grievances redressal etc.
From the 1,734 ITDPs appraised till November 2007, the information from 1,734 tanks has been analyzed.
