💨 Abstract

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee assured that the state government will not disrupt tea cultivation while granting approvals for tourism-related activities. The government will allow up to 15% of tea garden land for tourism projects, but only where tea is not cultivated, and 80% of the workforce must be local residents. The government will decide individually on requests for more than 15% land, provided there are no pending dues.
