The West Bengal government today said it would start the process of getting back the land from the Tatas in Singur if BHEL selects the site for setting up a mega power plant there.
"I don't think there will be any problem to get back the land from the Tata Motors Ltd," Industry Minister Nirupam Sen told reporters on the sidelines of the Eastern Print Pack-2009 conference here.
BHEL Officials had inspected the site in Singur earlier this month where the state government proposed to set up a 1600 MW mega power plant as a joint venture.
Railway minister Mamata Banerjee had last week said the Railways would set up a rail coach factory in the site jointly with the state government or under a PPP model.
But Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee said the Railways had not sent any proposal to the state government for setting up a coach factory in Singur.
He told a TV channel yesterday his government was trying to set up the power plant in Singur jointly with the central government.
