SC quashed the acquisition of land in Singur
- The Supreme Court quashed the CPI (M)-led West Bengal government’s acquisition of 997 acres of agricultural land for industry captain Tata Motors’ Nano “small car” plant in Singur.
- Judgement said though it is “completely understandable” for the government to acquire land to set up industrial units, the “brunt of development” should not be borne by the “weakest sections of the society.”
- The judgment questions the former CPI(M) government’s acquisition of the land over the objections raised by farmers and even proceeding to install equipment and factory machinery.
- The issue led to an electoral victory for the Mamata Banerjee government, which went on to enact the Singur Land Rehabilitation and Development Act in 2011 to re-claim the land from the Tatas.
