Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee today said her party would cooperate with West Bengal Governor Gopal Krishna Gandhi, who has convened crucial talks between the state government and the party panel to end the Singur deadlock.     

"We want to cooperate with the Governor. We want talks. We will not show any discourtesy to him," Banerjee said from the dharna site here.     

Stating that Durgapur Expressway was open, she instructed her supporters to keep the lane opposite to her dharna site open when crowds assembled. However, only one lane was open for traffic.     

Additional Superintendent of Police (Hooghly) Debasish Boral said police would ensure unhindered movement of traffic.
