  locked up due to CRZ regulations and salt pan
  leases.
• Thousands of buildings are in dilapidated
  conditions endangering the lives of lakhs of
  people

  the use of re-housing PAPs currently encroaching
  public land needed for vital public project
• Land owner to receive 11 TDR in lieu of the land

  against construction of rehabilitation tenements
  at the ratio of 11.33

23
Legal Framework Governing SRA Scheme

  notifying the slums and for fixing the
  eligibility criteria of slum dweller
• LA Act 1894 for compulsory acquisition of land
  for public purposes.
• MRTP Act, 1966 for preparation of Development
  Plans to designate land for public purposes,
  which can be acquired under LA Act

  for an alternative to acquisition under LA Act
  1894 by way of Transfer of Development Rights
  (TDR)
• The Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act 1960

  administering the cooperative societies

24
Step Involved in Slum Rehabilitation

• Identification of vital public projects
• Preparation of BSES Reports and Cadastral Maps

  permanent rehabilitation, preparation of plans
  and approval to the schemes by the competent
  authority
• Preparation of eligible slum dwellers/PAPs list
• Certification of the PAPs list by the Collector
• Public consultations, issuance of identity cards
  and allotment letters
• Construction of Transit tenements
• Shifting of PAPs into transit tenements and
  clearing the corridors.
• Construction of Permanent tenements

  MUTP along with necessary infrastructure
• The transit tenements are of approximately 120
  sq.ft carpet area each with common toilet
  facilities
• Pedestrian pathways along with other basic
  amenities such as water, electricity and ration
  shops have been provided

26
Resettlement and Rehabilitation Process

• Based on recommendations of a Task Force
  assigned to frame a policy regarding Resettlement
  Rehabilitation the policy has been formulated.
• Baseline Surveys, Resettlement and
  Rehabilitation Action Plan, Rehabilitation
  Implementation Plans (RIPs) and Community
  Environmental Management Plans (CEMPs) have been
  prepared with the help of NGOs.
• Rehabilitation Action Plan (RAP) prepared
  covering
• Number of families affected by the project
• Policy framework and entitlements
• Land acquisition details
• Identification of resettlement sites and
  purchase of built houses
• Plans for transit and permanent housing
• Economic rehabilitation measures
• Monitoring, evaluation procedures, grievance
  redressal mechanisms
• Time-table including the preparation of detailed
  implementation plans

27
NGOs and Community Involvement

• The project is being implemented with the
  assistance of the NGOs like SPARC and SRS
• The process of community participation began from
  the stage of conducting BSES and RIP preparation
  and the post rehabilitation support and services
  for each of the project component
• Reputed NGOs and Community Based Organisations
  working in the project areas engaged to carry out
  the BSES through the active participation of the
  community

28
NGOs and Community Involvement

• NGOs involvement helped to
• Identify the community preferences in new
  relocation site
• Shelter design
• Formation of Co. Op. Housing Societies of the
  PAHs
• Formation of Mahila Milan Committees
• Training the groups in maintenance and management
  of community needs
• Preparing the community to adapt to new lifestyle
  in multi-storied building
• Maintenance of the local environment and services
• Training and assisting the communities in
  establishing community based savings and loan
  during the post resettlement phase
• Promote community savings, income earning
  activities and improved quality of life

29
Public Information Centres (PIC)

• PICs have been established in the office of
  MMRDA and the project sites to provide
• Information pertaining to the project
• Eligibility entitlements
• Project components and implementation schedules
  
• Public consultation and transparency process
• NGOs associated with the project to provide
  volunteers to manage the PIC at the project site

30
Grievance Redressal Mechanism

• Two separate Committees have been appointed by
  MMRDA for redressal of grievances of the Slum
  dwellers/ PAHs
• Field Level Grievance Committee, comprising
  officials of the PMU, representatives of the NGOs
  and Project Implementing Agencies (PIAs), to hear
  the grievances of the PAHs at the first instance
• High Level Grievance Redressal Committee,
  comprising the officials of the MMRDA and the
  representatives of the NGOs, to hear and decide
  appeals of the aggrieved Slum dwellers/ PAHs
• A high level Independent Monitoring Panel has
  been constituted to supervise the overall
  implementation process

31
Post Resettlement Activities

• Formation of Co. Op. Housing Soc. including
  their PAH members and transfer of legal tenure of
  the land in the names of the societies
• Payment of all kind of monetary compensations
  transfer of maintenance charges
• Providing community facilities, to the left over
  population that are lost in the process of
  resettlement

32
Management Inofrmation System (MIS)

• In order to monitor the rehab process, MIS has
  been established by MMRDA
• The MIS is prepared based on the inputs from the
  field level operations to generate quarterly
  progress reports

33
Innovation in Implementation

• The mammoth task of rehabilitation and
  resettlement is being implemented with the
  following fast and quick actions
• Establishment of SRA cell in MMRDA
• Motivating the developers to offer tenements
  under SRA scheme
• Invitation of proposals through public
  notification for construction of tenements under
  SRA
• Timely approvals after statutory scrutiny to the
  proposals of the developers and grant of TDR
  benefits

34
Innovation in Implementation contd.

• Supervision to ensure design standard, quality
  construction through PMCs ensuring development of
  off-site infrastructure utilizing engineering
  capabilities of MMRDA
• Involvement of NGOs to carry out the BSES,
  preparation of RIP, CEMP and EA etc.
• Co-ordination with government agencies like
  revenue department and collector encroachments to
  finalise eligibility and entitlements
• Shifting of families through NGOs involvement
  under the supervision of trained and qualified
  team of MMRDA
• Taking over of cleared lands and providing
  security to prevent re-encroachments

35
Impact Assessment

• The execution of MUTP, MUIP and resettlement and
  rehabilitation of project affected/slum dwellers
  would have several spin off benefits
• The cost of the RR if entirely procured through
  public procurement process, purely on financial
  terms would cost Rs. 1500 Cr.
• The process through which these tenements were
  procured has put a very limited burden on
  government and therefore saved the public funds
  at large
• This project not only helped to relieve Mumbai of
  its transportation problems but also give the
  much awaited impetus to the stagnant growth of
  Mumbais economy
• The transport infrastructure project are expected
  to yield remarkable benefits to the city in terms
  of improved productivity, saving in fuel and
  travel time, reduction in pollution and overall
  growth of the city
