Land Battle at Singur!

They say 'Justice hurried, justice burried' as well as "justice delayed,justice denied'.So it's advisable to follow moderate pace in this regard.But Mamata Banerjee is in unusual hurry, as if the time is running out, to fulfill the electoral promises of returning land to the 'unwilling' farmers of Singur.Return of acquired land to the land losers is admittedly a complicated legal process.Perhaps there is no precedence in this regard in the history of land deal in our country for public purposes.(Calcutta high court recognised making of Tat'a's Nano factory at Singur as public purpose).If Mamata Banerjee is ultimately successful in returning land to the 'unwilling' land losers at Singur negotiating legal hurdles, she would be acclaimed a pioneer in this respect.However,for this she primarily requires patience and every move is made with utmost care and caution.But she brooks no delay as her wont. and wishes to see the process complete almost over night.In fact, the more impatient she would be, the more likely for her to commit legal mistakes.

Though she herself claims 30days' notice is required prior to distributing land to the land losers, then why did she decide to return land to 12 'unwilling' farmers today as publicised in a large section of press?Of course,she herself in public and her lawyers in Supreme court have denied it but people know what's true.Did her men think Tatas won't get stay order on land distribution process so easily from SC and by this time land would be returned to the land losers.?If so,it was a facile optimism. In fact, such a hurry coupled with apparent trickery does not behove a govt that has come to power with massive mandate.
