It was very foolish business decision of the Tata group to opt for Bengal whn there are many other states which are very willing to give thm a red carpet welcome. Whn it comes to industrial investment, Bengal is the worst place...worse than Bihar. In Bihar, u have goons as the problem, who could be controlled if their masters (read politicians)have the will. In Bengal, the problem is the politicians themselves.
Bengal, at the moment, is clueless as to wht path to opt for... extrelemy leftist path or pro development path. Whtever path they opt, one thing is certain, the state is set to be doomed. Whn every positive minded Indian is talking abt development, liberalisation and making India one of the economic superpowers of the world, Bengal is doing everything possible to negate all the good efforts of the Indian industrilaists. No matter which party is in the power, the bandhs are the only means of protest there.
In my view, Tatas should not have opted for a politically fragile state like Bengal. Its a hell for industrialists. Even if they manage to open up their car making unit in Singur, who would guarantee the smooth functioning of the unit??? Bengal is known for its BANDHS. Its a place where only mazdoor union leaders can prosper and not the industrialists.
