A day after a private firm handling cargo at the Haldia port in West Bengal pulled out of the state, saying it longer had a secure environment to work in, NDTV has accessed letters which indicate that HBT, an Indo-French joint venture, came up against a concerted campaign because it was hurting the business interests of a Trinamool MP.
