Enough is enough

Enough is enough. People of Bengal are fade up of vote bank politics of some immature leaders. Their statement gives clear indication that they are not bothered if Tata goes from here. They just doing their best to turn a promising industry to another graveyard in Bengal.

As per media news, Tatas have decided to leave Singur. The decision is reported to have been made by the Tata management and the Bengal government has been informed. But Tatas are likely to make a public announcement next week unless something dramatic happens very soon which seems unlikely.

The West Bengal Government has shown signs of defeat. Nirpupam Sen, the Industries Minister of West Bengal on Tuesday acknowledged that the prospects of the Nano project in Singur are becoming bleaker by the day. And it seems Tata’s top brass has already taken that final call, sources say that an internal decision to shift out of Singur has already been cleared. So, there will be no turning back for Tata.

The Trinamul leaders are sticking to their demands hoping that their stubborn stand will pay dividends in rural Bengal in the forthcoming parliamentary election. Naturally what matters for them if Tata opts out of Singur and another graveyard is added to Bengal ?

This is politics but this time it may boomerang

The state of West Bengal is passing through a difficult times. All the developments and industrialization process may be at grinding halt due to some irresponsible movements by the few politicians. The state is always politically active but this movement is unprecedented and most damaging to the image of the state. The upcoming Nano factory at Singur has been closed before completion of its construction and the situation there has forced TATA to rethink about the project. Their workers were stopped and threatened and the most important NH2 was blocked for days. The damage what was inevitable due to the irresponsible movement of the political parties at Singur, has been successfully done by them. The movement for ‘land for land’ for the unwilling farmers itself is a unpractical demand. If this demand is met, then it will become a precedence for the future and no development in the state could be done. The mood of the agitating parties shows that they are not bothered for the development of the state, because they want to project themselves as the savior of the farmers, just for a narrow political mileage.

The industry-pro environment was created in the state by the present Chief Minister shri Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee and to turn “anti” to “pro” took few years. But the agitating parties and their irresponsible movement ruined pro environment in few days and it will not be surprised if the decade old ‘industrial draught’ condition comes back in the state, if TATA forced to withdraw his project from Singur. The indications are coming of similar nature, because during last few days, investors have shown their concern and apprehension and they are rethinking.

Inspite of all these how the agitating party can say that they too want industrialization in the state. Their words or wish (at least for Singur) are not matching with their activities. The package offered by the Government is very much attractive and there are still rooms for negotiations. But the agitating leaders have just rejected the package and they are sticking to ‘Land for land’ demand. It again shows that the leaders are aiming for their narrow gains only and not the interest of the farmers and the state. The agitating party should understand that their adamancy now goes against the interest of the poor farmer and this will boomerang on them and the resultant political mileage may be zero from this movement.
