      The Indian auto giant Tata Motors which had withdrawn the manufacturing units of its small car Nano from Singur in 2009, is now receiving assurance of full cooperation from locals of Singur for setting up a new plant. The locals of Singur have prompted the company to meeting the representatives for the same.

      In response, the company has indicated that it will meet Representatives of Singur locals who had given land for Nano’s production plant before the company’s withdrawal from the state due to a series of violent farmer agitations.

      In a response to a letter by president of the Singur Shilpa Vikash Unnayan Committee, Uddayan Das, Tata Motors Vice President (Govt. Affairs and Collaborations) A S Puri said, "I can call on you during one of my visits to Kolkata.”

      The letter was written to the Tata Motors on November 11, in which Mr. Das had apprised the company of the locals' changed attitude towards Tata's enterprise. "We never thought that inspite of completion of 85 per cent of total project work; you would take such a painful decision to close the (Nano) project," Mr. Das wrote.

      Meanwhile, the company has opened the direct sales of its small car Tata Nano at its 874 sales outlets spread across the Indian market. Tata Nano sales stood at 5,784 units in December 2010.
