Mr. Ajit,
Its not clear what point you are trying to make. Perhaps you are not clear with it yet. It%u2019s trying time for you as well to prove a point. Anyways every industry & every person should go through a trying & testing mode so that he can learn more & be more professional, competitive & efficient. If things are costly in France it doesn%u2019t mean that even a poor country like India should keep essential commodities costly for the common man. And for your information Carrefour, the world%u2019s second largest retailer is from France!! So organized retail is there everywhere in the world, even in communist China. So if consumers & common man is reaping the benefits of organized retail the world over, why should the Indian consumers be deprived of this benefit. And with the Indian retail market of $350 billion, there space for everybody, so let the consumer get a benefit & let him use his money better. People opposing organized retail is like taking India back to medieval times & most of those who are opposing it are either middlemen or those who have cheated the common man till now with inflated rates on inferior quality products.
