Pleas against Singur project dismissed

Marcus Dam

KOLKATA: The Calcutta High Court on Friday dismissed all 11 petitions that challenged the land acquisition at Singur in West Bengal for the Tata Motors’ small car plant.

Other matters pertaining to the project were also dismissed.

Ruling that the land acquisition was valid, a Division Bench, comprising Chief Justice S.S. Nijjar and Justice P.C. Ghose, said it was made for employment generation and the area’s socio-economic development.

In a statement, Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee described the verdict as one that would serve the greater interests of people and strengthen the State’s industrialisation drive.
