By Our Staff Reporter

KOLKATA, JAN. 13. The Union Minister of State for Telecommunications, Mr. Tapan Sikdar, said that the Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DoT) would set up a research and development centre in Kolkata. The centre would mark C-DoT's entry into Eastern India. The facility would later be used for training also.

Mr. Sikdar said C-DOT authorities were earlier negotiating to purchase some real estate properties from Jessop 7 Co. ``However at a recent meeting I suggested them to set up shop at the `Infinity' building in Salt Lake''. He was addressing a press conference on the occasion of 32 mbps connectivity provided by VSNL to `Infinity'.
