Special Correspondent KOLKATA: The Tata Motors authorities have sent a letter to the West Bengal government, stating that they require over 997 acres to set up the automobile manufacturing project and ancillary units in Singur, Industries Minister Nirupam Sen said on Thursday. The letter was in response to a clarification sought by the government on a letter the company had sent to Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee on the project. Ms. Banerjee had highlighted a paragraph in the letter that between 600 and 650 acres was required for the car plant.
LANDING IN TROUBLE Saubhadra Chatterji / Semrota (uttar Pradesh) August 22, 2008, 1:01 IST Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee and Bhupinder Singh Hooda should take heart. They are not alone in facing political storms over their governments' land acquisition efforts. Congress' star general secretary, Rahul Gandhi, too, got the rough edge of his constituency's tongue when, during a free-wheeling interaction in Amethi, his voters berated him for eyeing their land, even if for development.
The Singur plant will require a full 1,000 acres since the ancillary units are an integral part of the small-car project, Tata Motors has clarified to the state government through a letter. "We had sent a letter to the Tata Motors managing director (Ravi Kant) to find out what exactly they had written to Mamata Banerjee on the land requirement in Singur and its use,' industries minister Nirupam Sen said today. "He has replied that the small-car plant would need 1,000 acres, and that the vendors or ancillary units are very much part of the project.'
A "worried' Ratan Tata has no intention to pull out of Singur "until and unless forced to do so', the Bengal government said tonight in the first public admission that the car project is not as foregone as was being made out. "Actually, he is quite worried about the developments in Singur. He did not anticipate this kind of thing to happen for such a project,' industries minister Nirupam Sen said tonight after meeting Ratan Tata at a city hotel.
V.K. Ramachandran New data show that, even over the last three years, the extent of land acquired by the State government for industrial and infrastructural purposes was a fraction of the agricultural land distributed under land reform. The primary point of distinction between Left-led and all other State governments in India is that, on coming to power, every Left-led government has confronted the agrarian question directly. Land reform has been integral to the policy of the Left in government from the outset.

Atiq Khan Agreement reached on compensation for acquired land U.P. Minister, Cabinet Secretary talk to farmers Deal comes days before Mayawati's visit LUCKNOW: The farmers' agitation over the compensation for acquired land and the death of five of their kinsmen in police firing in Ghorhi Bachhedha village in Greater Noida (Gautam Budhha Nagar district), Uttar Pradesh, was withdrawn on Wednesday.
Greater Noida: The conflict between the residents of Ghori Bachhera village and Noida police and administration, seems to have blown over after a team of farmers met UP cabinet secretary Shashank Shekhar Singh in New Delhi on Tuesday evening. The Ghori Bachhera representatives reportedly agreed to a compensation of Rs 10 lakh for each of the five deceased who were killed in the police firing recently. This is, significantly, the first official admission that five farmers were killed in the confrontation of August 13, rather than the four the police had initially claimed.
It is the government's continued inaction on the issue of the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) that is responsible for incidents like the one on Tuesday, when activists of the SEZ Virodhi Manch (SVM) and the Goa Bachao Abhiyan (GBA) barged into the site of the Raheja SEZ at Verna on learning that work had recommenced, forcibly stopped it, and caused the labourers at the site to flee. This would not at all have been necessary, had the government systematically probed into the SEZ mess and proceeded against the fraudsters.
