Tata Decides To Leave Singur
Tata Motors has finally decided to leave Singur following stiff opposition from various political and social groups. The company faced many violent protests and agitations on land acquisition issue. It was also forced to halt work at the project site at Singur by the farm community and workers of Trinamool Congress.
The state government of West Bengal tried its best to retain the project but all its efforts ended in smoke due to inflexible attitude of Mamta Benergee. The state had also announced a fresh compensation package but it was also failed to yield consensus on the matter.
TATA chief, Ratan Tata termed it as a very painful decision. He said it reflects the problems to acquire land in the country for industrial units. The company is now doing a right thing as it is left with no other option. Mr. Tata said that the company has not selected new site for Nano yet. However, many states have assured to provide good environment for the world’s cheapest car Nano.
