West Bengal CM visited the Nandigram

West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee expressed sorrow for not only the CPI-M supporters but also for the anti-SEZ supporters who lost their lives in the violence that erupted in Nandigram earlier in the year.

"I feel sorry for everyone. I express my sorrow to not only the CPI-M supporters but also the opposition supporters who have died. The state government takes responsibility to compensate for all this. I appeal to the opposition and the CPI-M workers for no more violence anymore," Buddhadeb said.

Buddhadeb reiterated that till there is a concensus, the state government will not lay claim to any land for the SEZs.

He also regretted March 14 police firing in Nandigram saying no government in a civilised country can send police to kill people.

On Wednesday, Buddhadeb visited Nandigram for the first time after violence in March and addressed a rally where he appealed to both the groups to refrain from violence. The CM is expected to address another rally in Tamluk.

The CM also asked CPI-M leaders not to "misbehave" with opposition activists but to be polite with them and added that a special committee has been formed to prepare a comprehensive package for Nandigram's development.
