Response to letter to CM from EDMC Mayor.

Dear Madam,
 
I am responding keeping in mind the interest of common man and the farmers of this nation.
 
1 I feel big retail stores and small colony shops can exist together.There is enough business for both.
 
2. In your write up you have totally ignored the interest of common man and farmers,who have been exploited for long by traders (Aarthias) and consumers by local shopkeepers.There is no redressal of grievences and consumer have to eat a humble pie as often we end up buying substandard goods.
 
3.This would check the menance of hoarding of crops by traders and also would check wastage due to lack of storage godowns.We have seen food grains rotting in the open and people going hungry and dying in other states due to poverty.
 
4.If we can buy branded clothes from malls ,what stops us from buying good quality household items and grocery from foreign retail outlets.Inspite of malls people still visit markets like Lajpat nagar and Patri bazaars.
 
5FDI will give citizens choices and consumers and producers rights will also be protected.
 
6.As for the youth ,they will only learn ethical business practices.It will be survival of the best and youth will get enough job opportunities.
 
I as a consumer and citizen want FDI in our country as I want better choices ,accountability and  care for the farmers and peasantry of this nation who have been denied their due for long.
 
Sincere regards
