State should change its policies on SEZ: Somnath

Former Lok Sabha speaker Somnath Chatterjee said the state should change its policies regarding special economic zones (SEZs) and reconsider certain cases in the interest of the state at a summit organised by a private news channel today.

“I would advise the CM not to shun the SEZ pointblank because in that case there would be some companies that would enjoy the benefits of an SEZ while others remain deprived,” he said while discussing that leaders need to push forward and make a conscious effort towards a holistic development of the state and the country.

“We should try and make Bengal workable with good infrastructure,road,water and other facilities,uninterrupted power,good working condition and financial benefits for companies to come here for business,” he said.

He hinted that even as the people of West Bengal had voted out the Left government and elected her,it might change the other way round.
