Tata Motors has finally won compensation from the West Bengal government
This comes after its Singur facility in West Bengal was scrapped 16 years ago due to protests over alleged land-grab
The facility in Singur was planned to manufacture Tata Motors' most affordable and smallest car, Nano
The construction of the facility began in January of 2007 after the erstwhile Left Front government gave approval
In June 2007, Tata Motors faced the first hurdle over its Singur facility
This is when the Opposition started agitation over alleged corruption in handing over lands from farmers to the carmaker
The protests ultimately led to violence in December
In October 2008, Ratan Tata had decided to pull out of West Bengal
Tata later confirmed that Sanand in Gujarat has been finalised as the new location
