The Supreme Court directed the West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee not to return Singur land to ‘unwilling’ farmers, in what can be seen as some relief for Tata Motors which had leased the land from the previous Marxist government for its doomed Nano factory.

Mamata Banerjee won big on two fronts today. She won a legal battle against Ratan Tata that’s centred on the land allotted to him in Singur. She also won her assembly by-election from her constituency of Bhawanipore by nearly 50000 votes. She was earlier an MP. Her legal victory was declared first this morning. The Calcutta High Court ruled that the Singur Land Rehabilitation Act is constitutional and valid. The Act was introduced in June by Mamata Banerjee shortly after she was elected Chief Minister of West Bengal. It allowed her government to cancel a 99-year-lease signed with Mr Tata for nearly 1000 acres for his Nano factory. The deal had been signed by the Left which lost to Ms Banerjee in the state elections in May this year.

It’s festival time once again in West Bengal. But the Durga Puja this time is being held under a looming cloud over the exit of the Nano from Singur. And one Puja pandal is sure to see high footfalls this year is the Santosh Mitra Square in central Kolkata where the theme is the people’s one lakh car.

Our Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) has partnered with the Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design (ACCAD) to create a visual representation of the hierarchical structure of research within the Center for Affordable Nanoengineering of Polymeric Biomedical Devices (CANPBD). This ambitious project has been nicknamed VIE, or Virtual Interactive Environment. The VIE will allow a user to review our Center’s testbeds, core technologies, projects, and people as well as see how every one of those ties in to the others.
