Tata welcomes govt initiatives

With the West Bengal government on Sunday issuing newspaper advertisements announcing a rehabilitation package for Singur land losers, Tata Motors expressed hope that the government's initiative would evoke a positive response.

"Tata Motors appreciates and supports the recent initiatives of the West Bengal government for Singur residents where it has acquired land for the small car project," Tata Motors said in a statement.

The statement said, "Tata Motors hopes these initiatives will evoke a positive response from the residents of Singur and that all stakeholders will contribute to creating a congenial environment for the long-term sustained operations of an industrial enterprise."
