Kolkata: The Bengal government's standing committee on infrastructure development and industry on Saturday approved investments to the tune of Rs 6,050 crore by four companies in the manufacturing sector. The companies are Power Grid Corporation, SPS Steel and Power Ltd, ACC Cement and Ankit Metals and Power Ltd.
Industries minister Partha Chatterjee said after the meeting the group of ministers responded positively to the applications of the four companies for setting up industrial units in the state. "We are also reconsidering the application of Sobha Ispat," Chatterjee said. Chief minister Mamata Banerjee presided over the meeting at Writers' Buildings.
"We have already said that the government will not acquire land forcibly. But the government will always encourage those who have land and who want to set up industries here. We have been saying that if the projects are acceptable to the chief minister, all applications to set up industries will be approved," Chatterjee said.
