We are trying to make the Nano project work: WB CM

New Delhi: It could be the end of the road for Tata Motor’s Nano project in West Bengal. Government sources told CNN-IBN that there is unlikely to be a solution to the Singur deadlock.

According to sources in the state government, the committee on land review was not likely to find a solution as the mother plant and ancillary units cannot be separated.

An accord was reached between the state government and the Opposition parties on Sunday night after a series of meetings mediated by Governor Gopal Krishna Gandhi.

However, in a strongly worded press statement, Tata Motors on Monday said it would not resume work in its small-car plant in Singur, claiming that the outcome of talks between the government and opposition parties to end protests against the project lacked clarity.

At the end of talks mediated by Gandhi, an official statement said that the government would respond to the demands of those farmers who have not received compensation and asked vendors of Tata Motors not to go ahead with construction of their respective facilities in the meantime.

The company said that it would review its stated position only if it was satisfied that the viability of the project was not being impinged.

Tata Motors' statement came a day after Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee suspended her indefinite dharna on Sunday night following an agreement with the state government.

Meanwhile, movement of traffic resumed on both lanes of the Durgapur Expressway on Monday morning with the Trinamool chief suspending her two-week long dharna near the Tata Motors' small car plant.

As per the agreement, the state government will form a committee to look into the demands of the affected farmers, and submit its report in seven days.

Till then, construction the ancillary units will be on hold.

What's your reaction?
