Land acquired for Tata Singur plant won't go back to prior operators: SC
The Supreme Court ruled that land acquired for Tata Motors’ Nano project in Singur will not be returned to prior industrial operators like Santi Ceramics. The 2016 verdict protecting vulnerable farmers does not extend to commercial entities with financial means. The decision upholds the land’s restoration to original cultivators, while allowing prior operators to remove or auction remaining structures and machinery.
