People Say Tata are ethical.. But Chanakya has said " Business and ethics dont go hand in hand". Tata or Narayan murthy of Infosys may wear mask of ethics but truth is every corporate in India and all over world are grown on basis of manipulation and unethical work.But unethical means varies from corporates to corporates.Reliance may do more,tata may do less-- But every corporate does unethical work.Talking about bribes even Tata have paid bribes- So no ones saint in corporate world. Now let us come to the moot point :
First, let your own land or house or property gobbled up in the interest of an industry and
then comment. This is the most fertile zone of WB. Some distance way in infertile land other
industries are coming up without any difficulty. Ratanji made several mistakes which he might not acknowledge but remains answerable to shareholders and making the industrial climate state of WB, and the country hostage first with his follies and then with veiled threats. He is trying to equate Nano with India iteself which is a dangerous thing to do.First, let be Nano on road for few years, perform and then we start clapping. Now onto his mistakes

(i)Why did he only depend on only overwhelming majority of CPIM in state of WB, not bothering to talk to prinicipal oppositions or local people as in politics things might change. Did he believe that CPIM is ruling Bengal for 30 years and will continue to do so for another 30 and he doesn't need to bother??ii) underestimating opponent - in nano naming function he said that he wanted to name it 'Buddha', 'Mamata' and 'despite Mamata' thinking the battle is already won. One can make fun of his friend if he doesn't mind but wasn't it prematured to make fun of Mamata (iii) Ratanji very boisterously said that some other car manufacturing co. is instigating trouble in Singur, he has proof and would reveal it at appropriate time. When will that time come now that he is deciding to leave Singur, eating his own words?iv) what if supreme court says the method in which a fertile, irrigable land was acquired without owner's consent in the name of public interest and given to a private profit making company is illegal? did he ever look at legal, constitutional issues? Tatas have many other manufacturing facilities in WB doing very well and nobody opposes it.

Why is it here? One should have the patience to understand the problem and act like a narcisist.
What is then the way out? The middle path proposed is to retain 600 acres as required solely by tata motors to be there where it is, remaining 400 acres required for ancillary units to be moved to few km away in a low lying land which is not as fertile. It may increase the cost of the car by approx. 5000 INR. Is this Ratanji's ego that 1 lakh is 1 lakh and if it
is 1.05 is the ego is hurt or Nano becomes unprofitable? Which other car is competing with it in that price range? It is time accept mistakes and apologise to the people of Singur as well as shareholders of Tata Motors for the mistakes made by him and move forward or if the chorus, JLR acquirer's ego is so much inflated let the job be given to somebody else.I request the readers to take note of the fact how people in and around Singur oerwhlmingly
voted for Mamata. These were the places where CPIM was ruling. Why is it so? In a democracy you should learn to respect peoples wishes. Unfortunately, very few of us believe in democracy and mostly feudal in nature. We want to decide what is good for others. We worry about youth not getting job if there is no industry because our kids are to serve in industry? Will we stop eating? Who will cultivate land and where? Industry can shift to an infertile land but cultivation cannot. We want others to sacrifice. How much sacrifice we ourselves have made?
