Nano is launched

At last much awaited “Nano” is launched today and created history in the automobile engineering. Unfortunately Singur could not be the part of the history just due to Mamata Banerjee, the most immature, destructive and anti-industry, anti-development leader of this century. Of course the name of Singur and Mamata has already made their space in the history for negative reasons, which nobody wanted.

Much have been talked/written in the media about the destructive, anti-people activities of Mamata Banerjee, so whatever I try to talk will be less. The elections are round the corner. We find surprisingly how these leaders are changing their colors and trying to be friendly with the people. She can do/ talk whatever she likes, but people of West Bengal will never forgive her for her betrayal to the youth of West Bengal, particularly Singur and neighborhood by driving out the Tata Nano from Singur. People will not forget what she and her men did for closer of the Nano factory when the car was rabout to roll out in October 2008 itself.

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.
