The West Bengal government is unlikely to hold any meeting with Tata Motors chairman Ratan Tata Friday, Industries Minister Nirupam Sen said here Thursday.

'We have no such plans yet to meet Ratan Tata tomorrow,' Sen said, while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the launch of a solar power project.

Tata will be here for the annual general meeting of Tata Tea.

The tussle between the Left Front government and the main opposition Trinamool Congress over land acquisition for Tata Motors' small car factory in Singur has taken a new turn after both sides agreed to talks Wednesday, although the meeting remained inconclusive.

Tata Motors is building the plant for its Rs.100,000 ($2,500) small car, Nano, at Singur on a 997.11 acre plot.
