Taking a lesson from the Nandigram violence over land acquisition, the government has decided to gauge the mood of those whose land will be taken for the proposed township and industrial hub at Dankuni in Hooghly district. Of the total 4,840 acres to be acquired, 1,600 acres will be acquired in the first phase. However, as a "test", the government has initially served notice for acquisition of two plots only, measuring 156 acres.
