10.Institutional Setup

  1. Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yozana (PMGSY) is a central program implemented by Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) in all states and UnionTerritories involving agencies and departments from centre, state to local level. The key involving institutions are: (1) National Rural Development Agency (NRRDA) at central level (2) State Rural Road Development Agency (SRRDA) at state level (3) Project Implementation Units at District level (PWD/PMB) (4) Village Panchayat at local level.
  2. The NRRDA is the implementing agency at central level and the SRRDA the executing agency at the state level, while the Project Implementation Unit (PIU), at the district levels, will execute the project at the local level. All these institutions are responsible for implementing the provisions of the SMF, VF, ECoPs and EMF along with the other project components, under the overall coordination and oversight of the NRRDA. NRRDA have a nodal Social and Environment Officer to oversee and ensure the implementation of the social and environmental safeguards.
  3. To facilitate implementation of the safeguards (ESMF) at state level, SRRDA will have a dedicated nodal officer (Social and Environment Specialist). SRRDA can recruit these officers either on deputation from other departments or from the market as need be. The key tasks of the specialist include, assisting and advising the Project Director at SRRDA level and implementing the SMF/VF/ECoPs.
  4. The Project Management Consultants (PMC) in each state will include the required number of Social Development Executives depending upon the quantum of sub projects to be implemented. These will assist the SRRDA and the Social and Environmental Specialist in planning, design, construction and monitoring of the rural road works and confirm that actions taken at each stage of the sub project cycle are in compliance with agreed procedures and standards. In case of Punjab, it was agreed with the World Bank and NRRDA that PMC will not be required in the project as the task of PMC is being carried out by the appointed Nodal Officers Social & Environment and inhouse capacity.
  5. The PIU, through the designated SDE/JE on social and environmental safeguards, will implement all the SMF/VF tasks at the field level with the assistance and participation of the District Administration/PRIs/Sarpanches and other Panchayat / ward members. The PIU will coordinate implementation of project components with the different agencies, such as the PRIs, DRDA, RevenueDepartmentetc, including resettlement issues.
  6. The civil works will be initiated only after the required RoW or land which is free from any encroachments and the PIU has the physical possession of the land. Before the start of civil works the compensation will be disbursed to land owners in state where land will be acquired through purchase or compensated acquisition.
  7. Likewise the MoUs/Affidavits/Gift Deeds should be in place in the DPRs in states where land is arranged through donation.
  8. During implementation, consultations with the communities shall be undertaken by the PIU to provide information on the progress of the project work.
