Singur issue: PM has telephonic talk with WB CM Friday, December 29, 2006 05:01 [IST]
Kolkata: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had a telephonic talk
with West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadev Bhattacharjee this morning, a day
after Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee ended her 25-day old fast on the
Singur issue.
Chief Minister's secretariat sources confirmed the telephonic conversation but
did not divulge what transpired between the two leaders.
Banerjee ended her fast late last night at the request of President A P J Abdul
Kalam, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and BJP leader Atal Bihari Vajpayee 'in
the hope of getting justice' for her demands to protect interests of farmers
affected by the Tata Motors small car project at Singur. |
