Singur land not 'formally' sought: Industry minister
The West Bengal government had not sought return of the land at Singur from Tata Motors ‘formally’, said West Bengal commerce and industry minister Nirupam Sen, a day after Ratan Tata said the government had not approached for the land. Speaking on the sidelines of a seminar organized by Assocham in association with the Bengal Chamber of Commerce & Industry and Merchants’ Chamber of Commerce, Sen said, though the government had not formally asked for the land, the company had been informed about the Bhel proposal and later the Railways proposal. Sen said, unless the Railways submitted a formal proposal, the government would not ask for the land back. With Sen’s comments, it appears that Singur was once again in limbo, as Railways has made it clear that it would not visit the land as it belonged to Tata Motors.

Road Transport and Highways Minister Kamal Nath said here that India has achieved construction of nine-km roads per day and the target of developing 20-km daily would be accomplished by this April. - Two major tax reforms to give edge to Indian businesses - Fix reasonable targets: Plan Comm to road ministry - Letters: Ridden with roadblocks">Letters: Ridden with roadblocks - Highways development back on track in 2009 - Road ministry still sits on safety budgets - Govt to borrow $2bn more from WB for road proj: Nath "We have reached nine-km per day of road construction and will hit our target of 20-km a day by April," Nath, who is here to hold talks with the Malaysian government to invite them to enter the highway construction sector in India, said. Thirty-five Malaysian companies are already involved with various infrastructure projects in India. To have a 20-km of road construction a day or 7,000 km of roads a year, there has to be 20,000 km of work in progress, he noted. The minister said that between November 2009 to June 2010, contracts worth $20 billion would have been awarded. Referring to land acquisition, he noted that states would also need to address the issue. Nath stressed that mega infrastructure projects would not be awarded to small companies. "Medium-sized companies should take more jobs and aspire to become bigger. If small companies take big projects, I may not have the roads," he said, adding such companies may not even be able to get finances. "We don"t want companies to take on more than they can chew. We also don"t want hoarding of contracts," he added.
