Earlier, Chakrabarti had asked the railways about the time they were planning to visit the land at Singur.
“We will build up the coach factory on 600 acres of land and we will return the remaining 400 acres to unwilling farmers. But all this we can do after we get the possession of 997 acres of land,” the letter from Khurana said.
The chief secretary confirmed the receipt of the letter but he refused to divulge the contents.

The Trinamool Congress has already said the state government was misleading the people of the state on this issue. “Who are the owners of the land? The Tatas or the WBIDC? Why is the state government playing hide-and-seek on this issue? Why is the agreement between the state government and the Tatas not being made public? We need answers to all this,” Trinamool leader Partha Chatterjee had said earlier.
