@Reply to whole world
----------
after reading all forums ,debates etc let me make it clear
----------------
SUPPORT:
===---====
ALL INDIAN POLITICAL PARTIES SUPPORT 51 PERCENT INVESTMENT FDI IN RETAIL
========================================
DO NOT SUPPORT:
=============
51 PERCENT FDI OWNERSHIP IN RETAIL ON PAN INDIA BASIS
===========================
First see the diff between the above two and then comment
=============================
Also
TATAs buying - CHORUS or Jaguar(FOrd) is company to company transaction ,not initiated by Indian govt to UK Govt
====
same way
---------
Indians buying COAL plant from Hancock coal is also Company - company Transaction not Govt initiated at all

also AUSTRALIA benefist selling COAL ,as it gets hard cash as well into its economy

COAL is still considered polluting source of POWER generation fuel and Indians will get the pollution in air (Indian skies)

I have listened to the BBC debate on podcast from GURGOAN

ugandans and some people were asking why are Indians objecting (showing double standards ) etc

That is why I wrote the above to clarify the finer points
===========================
political parties who are opposing say

51 percent FDI investment is welcome not 51 percent ownership in RETAIL (this is PAN INDIA basis)

If nothing else, it will get rid of the leeches the myriad middlemen who suck the blood of the farmers as well as the consumers.
Enough of selling third rate goods at inflated prices.
Consumers need choice.
Anyway, these middlemen, so called traders are all BJP supporters. They need to stop this blood sucking and look for real jobs.

With FDI the middlemen are not removed but in reality their number actually increases. Behind the scene all these Middlemen are related to the Retailers

They just take new forms–

Quality controller,
Standardiser,
Certification agency,
Packaging consultant etc – operate and live with farmer’s income.

This the Retailer earns even more abd costs keep rising

Due to the sheer size and buying power, big retail generally forces farmers to reduce prices.

(Have any builder ever given good price to the Farmers whose land they buy)

In England, Tesco paid 4 per cent less to farmers then local shops. Low supermarket prices in Scotland have forced irate farmers to form a coalition called ‘Fair Deal Food’ to seek better price for their farm produce

Please take a note by readers that this miss presentation by rediffmail that Indians are doing well in Abroad, First of all in London itself more than 25000 Indian retail shop owner are jobless and money less because of Super Markets . Secondly very few Indians are having super market most of them are small retail business which required small capital. Not a single billionaire or millionaire which is shown in the above list started with big supermarket they straggle hard and then they achieve this level.
Now these so called Americans and britishers realized that unless and until we take buying and selling in our hands we can’t control the world economy so they plan to put super market in India and will start selling imported product from America and Europe which is exported by India in a form of Raw material to America and Europe.
Our politicians want to send us old British Colonial days to buy a salt we will have to pay this American and Europeans.
Please I want to request you to all Indians not to allow this people to enter in retail market.
