This might be a ray of hope for 8000-odd jobless workers of the seven ailing Duncans tea gardens in Dooars. Goodricke group has emerged as the first prominent name to show interest in managing some of the ill-fated Duncans estates owned by the G P Goenka-led group. The Tea Board of India has floated a tender for inviting expression of interest (EOI) to pick suitable operator for handling operations and running the gardens commercially.
