Salim meets Buddha, Nirupam
In what was described a "courtesy visit', Mr Anthony Salim, the Salim group chief spent more than an hour closeted in a meeting with Mr Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, chief minister and Mr Nirupam Sen, state industries minister and senior officials at Writers' Buildings even as the city lay paralysed following a strike call by Trinamul Congress today. While Mr Salim declared that his group will go whichever way the state government asks with regard to its projects in the state, he also speculated the possibility of launching new projects in healthcare and food processing, reports said.
