Cong wants Wipro, Infosys to stay back

Two days after the West Bengal government scrapped the ambitious IT project at Rajarhat, the Congress today said IT majors like Wipro and Infosys should be given alternate land elsewhere in the state.

"We want companies like Wipro and Infosys to stay back and set their shops in the state. The government should provide them alternative land elsewhere," WBPCC working president Pradip Bhattacharje told reporters here.

In the wake of the Vedic Village controversy involving land scam, the state IT department stated earlier this week that "We are unable to stick to our assurances of providing land to Infosys and Wipro. The government had assured 90 acres each to Infosys and Wipro in the project and signed MoUs with the two companies last year."
