Buddhadeb writes to Mamata again on Tata controversy
West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee on Monday wrote another letter to Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee in a fresh bid to end the Singur land impasse.
The chief minister's letter will be taken to the dharna 'manch' (dais) of the Trinamool Congress chief on the second day of her party's indefinite agitation at Singur demanding immediate return of 400 acres to farmers unwilling to part with their land.
"The contents of the letter will be made known this afternoon," a source in the chief minister's secretariat said.
Senior officers of the state Home department would hand over the letter to Banerjee, Home secretary Ashok Mohan Chakraborty told reporters.
The letter comes following the Trinamool chief's proposal to end the deadlock, suggesting that there was a 500-acre low-lying plot near to the small car plant where the ancillary units could come up.
Launching her dharna yesterday at Singur, she said if the government agreed, the proposal could be shared with them.
The CPI(M)-led Left Front has asked the chief minister to continue the dialogue with the Trinamool Congress to end the Singur impasse.
Chief Minister Buddhadev Bhattacharjee invites Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee to directly discuss the Singur impasse for a solution.
