The West Bengal government is planning to set up new industries at Singur after the exit of the Tatas Motors.

"We have several proposals in hand. We will announce these in a few days. Land was acquired at Singur for industrialisation and we will set up industries there and nothing else," said Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee in an interview to a CPI(M) daily.

"The Singur episode is an isolated one arising out of the destructive movement of Trinamool Congress ... and none of the Indian and foreign investors have left because of the post- Singur situation," the Chief Minister said.

But he regretted that almost 85 per cent of the work was completed when the Tatas left Singur.

There were investment proposals from China, Japan, the US, Germany, besides fresh investments were coming from companies like Reliance, Birla and even the Tatas, he added.

"We have been stressing on manufacturing industry, like steel, petrochemicals, automobile, cement etc ... Moreover, information technology and biotechnology are also getting equal importance," the Chief Minister said.
