Buddhadeb scraps Nandigram project

Chief Minister of West Bengal state, Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee on Wednesday said he would go ahead with a controversial chemical hub project at a different site, after violence and subsequent protests made the government scrap the project in Nandigram village. The partners of the Communist coalition government have accused Bhattacharjee's CPI(M) of taking a unilateral decision of sending in police to Nandigram without their consultation.
