A coworker, who is from India, said (with typos): “atleast in Mumbai we do..a lot of them. depends..India is like a huge country. every state is very different from another”.

I was there for several months - in 1988 - and I don’t think there were supermarkets then. Back in 1988, even the capital city, Delhi, was regularly plunged into darkness due to electrical infrastructure failure.
I hated India - absolutely hated it - but was fascinated by it and remain fascinated by it. In spite of my hatred for the place I have a strange desire to return to explore it again.
It is a strange, wonderful, terrible, magical, tragic, beautiful and ugly place.

Its tragic that people have such weird notions about India even today, what with all the media attention the country gets these days.
There are about 5 supermarkets within ten minutes from my home in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. And I live 25 minutes away from the centre of the city. And these supermarkets have been around for years. I’ve been shopping at supermarkets for the past 20 years or so.
The article mentioned probably received a tip-off from Reliance, and thus misinterpreted the information.
