CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat calling on veteran Communist leader Jyoti Basu in Kolkata on Thursday.

KOLKATA: The West Bengal government is “doing everything” to settle the Singur problem, Prakash Karat, general secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), said here on Thursday.

On the protests being planned by the Left parties and some other parties, including the Bahujan Samaj Party, against the Parliament session not being convened by the United Progressive Alliance government and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit to the United States on September 25 to finalise the nuclear deal, Mr. Karat said the matter would be taken up at a meeting in New Delhi on Friday. He also blamed the Centre for failing to control terrorism.

Mr. Karat called on veteran Marxist leader Jyoti Basu at his Salt Lake residence here.

Mr. Basu was discharged from a city hospital on Tuesday after he was admitted there on September 7, three days after suffering a fall in his home.
