KOLKATA: Veteran CPI (M) leader Jyoti Basu today said that industrialisation process would continue in West Bengal despite the Nandigram incident which had nation-wide reactions.

"Indeed there was a countrywide reaction over the issue but we will be able to sort out the difficulties and the industrialisation process will continue", Basu told reporters when asked whether the Nandigram incident has tarnished the image of the Left Front.

At least 14 persons were killed and over 160 people injured in the police action at Nandigram on March 14.

Basu said that there should be better compensation package and improved rehabilitation policies for those whose land would be taken for industrial projects.

He underlined the need for Left Front unity at all cost and urged the constituents to cooperate.
