New Delhi, Aug. 25: If the Bengal government wants to return some of the Singur land to the original owners, it can bypass the legal difficulties by enacting a law in the Assembly, legal experts say.

One reason the state has cited to reject Mamata Banerjee's demand to hand back 400 acres to unwilling landlosers is that the law doesn't allow return of acquired land.
