TATA – SINGUR CONTROVERSY

TATA Nano Singur Controversy

•Tata Nano Singur Controversy refers to the controversy generated by land acquisition of the proposed Nano factory of Tata Motors at [Singur] in Hooghly district,

West Bengal, India.

•Singur gained international media attention since Tata Motors started constructing a factory to manufacture their $2,500 car, the Tata Nano at Singur. The small car

was scheduled to roll out of the factory by 2008.

Conti…

• Chief protesters include the opposition parties spearheaded by the Trinamool Congress under Mamata Banerjee and Socialist Unity Centre of India.

• Chief protesters include the opposition parties spearheaded by the Trinamool Congress under Mamata Banerjee and Socialist Unity Centre of India.

• The Tata Group announced on October 3, 2008 that they are pulling out of Singur due to the political unrest and agitation.

• Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi has given the Tata Motors a deal it will never forget. A deal that convinced the auto giant to choose Gujarat over other states as the site for the Tata Nano plant.

• The biggest incentive was a Rs 9,570 crore soft loan over 20 years — close to 25 per cent of Gujarat's annual budget.

• Tata Motors will repay the loan in 20 years, at 0.1 per cent interest rate and will repay the land price in eight equal annual installments.

• The government will also provide a four-lane road connectivity and also exempt Tatas from electricity duty, registration and transfer charges of land.

• It will also put up a waste disposal plant, supply natural gas through a pipeline and provide 100 acres near Ahmedabad for a township.

Questions to be asked??

• Do you think that this deal was fair enough from the government point of view?

• Is providing such a huge amount of loan at just a minimal interest rate fair?

• Well what about the welfare of the people at Singur who faced complications due to controversy?
