After reading the letter Ratan Tata must have asked… Who the hell is Sourav Ganguly? 😉 Seriously… who does Sourav think he is writing a letter to Ratan Tata!

Excerpt from The Telegraph:

Sourav Ganguly today wrote to Ratan Tata on the eve of his meeting with chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, urging the industrialist to manufacture the Nano in Bengal.

Urban development minister Asok Bhattacharya, believed to be close to the former Team India captain, confirmed that Ganguly wrote the letter.

“He (Ganguly) said Bengal is on the verge of making a turnaround. Therefore, if you leave now, the state’s economic interest will suffer,” Bhattacharya said.

If the Tatas stay in the state, a huge employment opportunity would be created and the youth of Bengal would benefit, Ganguly, a Tata Steel employee, is believed to have written.

Another public appeal also came, but not from the cricket field. CII mentor Tarun Das today issued a statement requesting Trinamul Congress chief Mamata Banerjee and her colleagues to act in a responsible manner before “it’s too late (to keep the plant in Bengal)”.
