West Bengal's ruling Left Front today hoped that Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee would hold talks on the Singur issue with the Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee government after her recovery. "The Left Front is happy that Mamata Banerjee has ended her fast yesterday. We hope that she will get well soon and join talks with the state government (on the Singur issue)," Left Front chairman Biman Bose, who is also the state secretary of the CPI(M), told PTI after a meeting of the LF committee here. "There is no timeframe, however, for the talks," he clarified. Asked if the Left Front had learnt a lesson from the turn of events at Singur, Bose said, "it is for the state government to consider." He said the Chief Minister and the Industry minister submitted a status report of on-going industrial projects. Bose said that perception of industrial prospects has changed in course of years and "we have to take the fullest advantage of the situation." The state, he claimed, was reaping the fruits of industrial development the infrastructure of which was developed during former chief minister Jyoti Basu's regime. He said the meeting also suggested that a team of all-party legislators would visit Singur in the wake of the controversy, but did not say what its objective would be. "We will first discuss with the state government about the visit," he said. --- PTI
