Continuing its hunt for a new site for the Nano car project, a team of Tata
Motors' executives on Monday inspected a 1,200 acre land at Warangal, about 45
kms from Hyderabad.
Medak district Collector Peeyush Kumar, who took around the Tata team, told PTI
over phone from Medak that 650 acres could be made available to the company
immediately and the rest shortly.
He said the government would start work on reclaiming the land from illegal
occupants.
Kumar told them that the proposed site was well connected to
'Hyderabad-Karimnagar Rajeev Rahadari' which was being expanded into a four-lane
highway.
The Tata team reportedly did not speak anything either for or against the Medak
location and told the officials that they would get back to them after the Tata
management deliberated upon various options.
The Tata Nano car project is being vigorously wooed by Karnataka, Andhra
Pradesh and Gujarat as its top officials are carrying out site inspections after
the group exited West Bengal following political opposition.
