Singur standoff: Farmer commits suicide

Singur, Sep 3: On Wednesday, Sep 3 a pro-Tata farmer committed suicide, hearing the news of Tata motors pull out from Singur plant. All his three sons are employed in the Tata Nano plant. The 65 year old farmer had sold his entire farm land to Tata motors. He was paid three and half lakh as compensation for this. He used this money to construct a two storey house. It was learnt that he was apparently upset with the news of Tatas withdrawal.

Mean while Mamata Banerjee said that she is hoping for a positive solution to the Singur agitation.
