Meanwhile, Punjab too invited Tata Motors to make the state its home for manufacturing Nano, promising all possible facilities the car maker needed.
"I will soon write an offer letter to Tata to formally invite the group to install its Nano plant in Punjab, for which every possible facility will be provided by the state government", state Industry Minister Manoranjan Kalia told PTI.
A delegation of Tata group would be invited for a formal meeting with the state Chief Minister, so that every aspect of the proposed plant could be discussed, he said and added that this was an opportunity for bringing ancillary auto parts makers to the state.
Asked if the state had any land to offer to the Tatas, Kalia said land would not be a problem and that the state would make one of the best available offers to Tata. Once the offer was discussed in a threadbare manner, every issue would be sorted out.
