From my Diary - Nano to Roll Out From Gujrat

Finally Tatas have decided to roll out their Nano from Sanand. So it switched over from Singur to Sanand and Tatas have switched their loyalty from Mamta to Modi. Probably there is some truth in what Mr. Ratan Tata said about the 2 Ms. One M is good and one was bad for the Tatas. This decision appears to have been taken purely on commercial and political terms. Thanks to the Modi Government and hidden influence of Mr. Advani. But the decision should and could have been different, if an objective analysis was done and following factors would have been considered: Availability of Land, with out any issues Availability of Water & Power Law & Order Situation Proximity to an International Air Port & a Port Threat perception of Terror & Communal disturbances Stability of Government & their Policies Regulatory Issues ( Pollution, Factory Inspectorate etc ) Availability of Skilled Labour & Staff ( Having experience from similar industry ) Proximity & Availability of Auto Ancillary Industry Hub Subsidies and Other Benefits

Then certainly Pune and not Sanand, would have been my choice if I was in Mr. Ravikant's shoes.
