Banerjee also said her ministry would save Rs 1,500 crore during the current financial year from the austerity drive initiated by the UPA government. The railway minister also feels it is better to delay a project for a few months than trying to forcibly acquire land. “What is the harm if a project takes two or four months more to start? We don’t want to force people to give up land. We don’t want to fight with people,” Banerjee said today.
