Banerjee disclosed that the railways have already identified 113,000 acres across the nation which can be used for developing industrial infrastructure.

'Six bighas of this land is in Singur. This will be used for setting up an industrial cluster under the Kishan Vishan project, which will help farmers sell their products like potatoes, flowers and vegetables from outlets on this land. This will also create employment in Singur,' she said.

Banerjee, who also inaugurated a computerised train reservation centre here, said Rs.50 lakh would be spent for making Singur a model station.

The Singur agitation, which started in mid-2006 following the project announcement by the state's ruling Left Front soon after it swept the assembly polls, helped the Trinamool decimate the Left in last year's polls to rural local governments and the April-May parliament elections.

Banerjee staged a 26-day hunger strike in Kolkata in 2006 protesting against the forcible land acquisition by the state government in Singur, and demanding 400 acres taken from farmers unwilling to part with their land be returned to them.

She later travelled to the rural pocket and laid siege of the factory for 14 days last year.

After the Singur movement, followed by a similar agitation in Nandigram, the land acquisition agitation snowballed into a major issue in the state and brought handsome rewards to the Trinamool at the hustings.
