CPM goes for Gandhi

NEW DELHI, Oct 20: Apart from the Trinamul Congress and its chief, Miss Mamata Banerjee, the CPI (M) has held the West Bengal Governor, Mr Gopalkrishna Gandhi to be partly to blame for the shifting of the Nano plant from the state, saying he was "not partial" during the crisis. In a document adopted by the CPI(M) Central Committee, the party attacked, apart from the Governor, the Congress, saying it “played a dubious role” on the issue with its Bengal PCC chief Mr Priya Ranjan Das Munshi “encouraging” disruption of the project. The 'Report on Political Developments' said despite all efforts by the West Bengal government for negotiations and settlement, the adamant stand adopted by Miss Mamata Banerjee on the Singur issue led to a deadlock. “When public opinion in the state was veering around in support of the project going ahead ... the role of the Governor who acted as a facilitator between the two sides was also not impartial,” the report said, noting that the Tatas had shifted the plant from the state on 3 October. In a bid to end the crisis on the Nano project, Mr Gandhi had acted as a facilitator between the government and Miss Banerjee after the Tatas threatened to pull out from the state. The Governor has earlier earned the wrath of the CPI(M)-led government for taking “pro-active” measures and putting the dispensation on the backfoot. His earlier decision to put off the lights of Raj Bhavan when the state was facing “power shortage” had also been criticised by the CPI(M) saying he was exceeding his brief. n SNS ( Source : The Statesman)
