I am hearing from a distance (as I am away from Country for last 16 years) that no farmer is interested to sell his land in Hoogly or Midnapur districts of West Bengal. It is correct -that they will not get job after industrialist built Plant as they are untrained/unskilled/uneducated. But I suggest to consider the land cost in such a manner that farmer will find it reasonable and the basis should be made to take care their dependent well (in absence of harvesting). This means Government should consider paying a very heavy amount to each farmer for their land compare to present payment rate verbal promise of a Job. This is just a suggestion and may be looked into. Gautam Chakrabarti E-Mail: gautam_chakrabarti@rediffmail.com
