Hi SP, Let me counter your point with whatever u have told. I am from Bengal. During Jyoti Basu's time Bengal was ruled by communists who dearly believed in the principles of Marx, Lenin and were very much active in implementing the old socialism principles. It hindered growth of Bengal. Now when Buddhadeb came the rulers understood the importance of industry more than agriculture in modern day society. As Bengal Land distribution system was complete (unlike most of the states in India - one positive thing of Jyoti Basu regime) they had no other options but to acquire lands from farmers. That led to the Nandigram incident. Presently after the Nandigram massacre the project was moved to a place called Nayachar. But still the fighting persists in Nandigram. The so called poor and innocent people have been lynching cars,houses,hurling bombs and shooting each other like mad men. These things have been propelled by the petty politicians. The condition for common people in Bengal is very fragile. One side they have the communists - who atleast are talking about progress and modernisations and on the other we have Miss Mamata- who is confused and yet to find a stable policy for her politics. She and her party workers are more into infusing trouble rather than talking sense. With no other options communists rule Bengal. This have been the case for last 30 years and trust me this might be the case for next 30 years also unless some sensible leader arises in the opposition.
