Singur vs Nandigram - land acquisition by WB Govt
by RANGARAJAN KAZHIYURMANNAR on Jan 12, 2007 10:54 AM   Permalink

There is a stark distinction between the Singur and Nandigram land acquisition approaches by the WB Govt. While the CM stood firm in Singur and ensured acquisition of required area of land, without thinking necessary to meet the agitating peasants, it was a different story in Nandigram. Since Nandigram abounds with land of the minotiry population who are vehemently attched to their properties and do not wish to part with, the Govt is going to withdrawal-syndrome and has even termed their decision to acquire land at Nandigram as a 'blunder'. So much of appeasement!
