In line with the ESMF, a Social Impact Assessment (SIA) was undertaken that identify the positive and negative impacts on Project Affected Persons (PAP) within the project area/right of way(ROW) along with strategies to manage them (enhancing positive impacts and mitigating the negative ones). Six Resettlement Action Plans (RAP) was prepared for six proposed substations in compliance with the World Bank’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement (OP 4.12) and Government of Bangladesh (GoB) requirements.
