CBCNN goes into overdrive mode to coverup Nandigram pogrom

Deaths in violence unfortunate, says Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee

Mr. Bhattacharjee said security forces had been sent to restore normality and peace in an "area where there had been no rule of law and no presence of an administration for not one, two or 10 days but for two-and-a-half months."

Here is the communist tactic of "truth by repeated assertion" at play.

"The police had not gone to Nandigram for the purpose of acquiring land. But shortly after they reached there, they were attacked. After trying to repulse the attack with teargas shells and rubber bullets, they had to resort to firing," Mr. Bhattacharjee said.

Yes, a 4000 strong police force - enough to invade Bangladesh - to control villagers.
