REHABILITATION

    The first guidelines for rehabilitation and resettlement of displaced persons/families was issued vide Revenue Department Letter No.3963 dated 24.01.1997. But these guidelines were found to be inadequate after a lapse of time. Hence, from 2004 onwards, a number of modifications were affected in the guidelines by enhancing the benefits to be given to the land displaced/affected persons. They are as follows: -
1. The amount of ex-gratia to be paid to land affected/displaced persons was raised to Rs.15,000 from existing rate of Rs.10,000/- per acre vide Revenue Department order No. 3963 dated 24.01.1997.
2. The amount of ex-gratia was further enhanced to Rs.25,000/- per Acre .
3. Rehabilitation Advisory Committee for the project was reconstituted vide Revenue Department Letter No. 24205 dated 26.06.04 and was again reconstituted vide Revenue Department Letter No. 45919 dated 24.11.04.
4. The post of ADM and Supporting Staff for looking after rehabilitation and resettlement issues was revived vide Revenue Department Letter No.1188 dated 10.01.2005.
5. The details of Ex-gratia payment made is enclosed.
6. Rehabilitation colonies with infrastructure have been set up at Tirijanga, Manitira and Gobarghati under the supervision of IDCO.
7. From January, 2005 onwards, several steps have been taken to improve the standard of rehabilitation of the displaced/affected persons in the Industrial Complex.
8. A provision has been made for payment of Rs.5000/- per family for temporary shifting and accommodation.
9. In supersession of all earlier orders, a rehabilitation policy has been prescribed by Revenue Department on 18.11.2005, which clearly spells out the manner of implementation of rehabilitation policy and eligibility criteria for such benefits. In this policy all displaced families irrespective of their status will get Rs.50,000 of cash assistance. Homestead land of ten decimals shall be given free of cost with developed infrastructure in rehabilitation colony. For self rehabilitation one who opts to make own rehabilitation elsewhere additional Rs.50,000/- per family shall be paid. There is special provision for house building assistance to displaced families. Even there are provisions for benefits to eligible encroachers in whose case, under the provisions of OPLE Act, 1972, the encroachment is unobjectionable. Even in case of objectionable encroachments, the displaced person will get the cost of the structure.
