In an attempt to retain Wipro and Infosys in West Bengal, the state government today offered 45 acre each to the two IT giants for setting up their units.     

"We are ready to give 45 acre each to Wipro and Infosys. They can construct new units at Rajarhat," Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee told a press conference at the CPI(M) headquarters here.     

"The two IT firms will be contacted by tomorrow," Bhattacharjee said, 10 days after scrapping of the IT township project at Rajarhat following an alleged land scam.
