After Tatas, Mamata targets retail chains entering WB

It looks like Trinamool Congress supremo Mamta Banerjee, who is leading an agitation against the Tata Motors’ small car project site in Singur, is not limiting her fight just against getting back 400-acres of land but her cry now targets retail chains entering West Bengal.

Mukesh Ambani, one of the first from India Inc to back Ratan Tata with his Reliance Fresh along with Sanjeev Goenka's Spencers Stores and Kishor Biyani's Pantaloons are all in her firing line.

In Singur for the third day, there was no work at the Nano plant and traffic on the Durgapur expressway continues to be blocked for the ninth day.

In fact, the mood on the ground seems to be one of a carnival, as supporters from parties as varied as Trinamool and JD(U) taking samosa and tea breaks.

All attempts to break the deadlock has yielded little result so far. For Mamta Banerjee, land acquisition and displacement are issues that's given her dividends at the recent panchayat polls.

Nandigram and Singur issues have revived Mamta's political fortunes but she wants to keep the momentum going and that's why she has taken up the anti-retail campaign.
