THE ‘MOU’ IS SIGNED. NANO PLANT IS COMING UP AT SANAND TALUKA IN AHMEDABAD DISTRICT. THE NAVRATRI FESTIVALS HAD MORE GLAMOUR WITH NANO COMING TO GUJARAT. BOMB-SCARE FORGOTTEN. PEOPLE THOROUGHLY ENJOYED, RATHER CELEBRATED THE NANO ENTRY.
THERE ARE FEW INTERESTING THINGS TO RECALL:
1. PARSIS, SAILED FROM IRAN TO INDIA. THEY PUT THEIR FIRST STEP ON THE INDIAN SOIL IN GUJARAT. OVER TIME THEY HAVE BECOME A PART OF GUJARATI CULTURE. THE OLDER PARSIS SPEAK GUJARATI FLUENTLY. THEY HAVE HIGH SENSE OF GRATITUDE FOR GUJARATIS FOR GENERATIONS DOWN FROM THE TIME THEY LANDED IN GUJARAT.
2. SHRI.RATAN’S GRANDFATHER JAMSHEDJI TATA DONATED RS.1000 DURING THE FAMINES IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY, FOR BUYING CATTLE FEEDS. A STONE PLACARD ERECTED AT THE SAME SPOT WHERE THE NANO PLANT WILL BE SHAPING UP DECLARES THIS.
3. WHEN TATAS DECIDED TO MOVE OUT OF SINGUR, SHRI.NARENDRA MODI SENT A SIMPLE MESSAGE TO SHRI.RATAN TATA “SWAGATAM”. EARLIER WHEN THINGS WERE GOING THROUGH A BAD PHASE FOR TATAS, MODI TALKED TO RATAN SEVERAL TIMES AND SHARED HIS CONCERN. NOT ONLY THIS, HE EXPRESSED THAT HE WISHES THAT NANO ROLLS OUT OF SINGUR AT THE EARLIEST. RATAN TATA WAS SURPRISED THAT AS A STATE C.M, HE NEVER TRIED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION. RATHER HE WISHED HIM GOOD AT SINGUR.
4. THE FARMERS AT SANAND, SOME OF THEIR LANDS NEEDED TO BE ACQUIRED FOR MAKING THE ROAD TO THE SITE, VOLUNTARILY HANDED OVER THE DOCUMENTS AND WERE PREPARED TO HELP MORE IF NEEDED. LUCKILY WE DO NOT HAVE A MAMTA IN GUJARAT.
5. FROM THE WORD GO, THAT TATAS WILL BE INTERESTED IN SHIFTING TO GUJARAT, ALL THE FORMALITIES, ALL THE PREPARATIONS FOR THE MOU, INCLUDING THE LEGAL PERSPECTIVES WERE EXECUTED IN TEN DAYS FLAT. LATER MODI MENTIONED THAT THE GUJARAT GOVERNMENT WORKED EVEN FASTER THAN TATA ITSELF.
6. LONG AGO THE ASSEMBLY UNIT OF AMBASSADOR, A BIRLA COMPANY SHIFTED FROM GUJARAT TO WEST BENGAL. GUJARATIS THOSE DAYS SAID “TATA” TO BIRLA AND WE SAY “WELCOME” TO TATA.
7. THE PEOPLE OF ‘SANAND’ CELEBRATED DIWALI IN ADVANCE. THEY FIRED CRACKERS, AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE. THEY HEARTILY WELCOMED RATAN AND THE NANO PROJECT. GUJARATI’S ARE JUBILIANT. PEOPLE OVERALL FEEL GREAT ABOUT THEIR CHIEF MINISTER.
