UnReliance Rotten

i've said this before, Pune branches of big-ticket companies - food stores, couriers, clothing stores, bookstores - turn into particularly dumb, dense and dirty avataars of their parent company.

the sus (pune) reliance fresh store (and im sure others, but this one in particular) front is a story in itself. hygiene hazard, you can slip and fall on the muck, the delite (non veg section) next door stinks and is filthy. outside, along the entire store length, is open garbage, rotting veggies, fallen plastic, massive garbage bags overflowing, soapy water sludge, and plenty of flies. wet soggy cartons are stacked man-high right there - all this is at the main entrance, along a good 30 ft-long frontage. inside, there is plastic and nameless rubbish lying on the floor. against the once-pretty glass front, is stacked quintals and quintals of stuff in sacks. its as if the whole store is working inside out - all the rot, and the stored stuff and the stuff to be disposed of sits upfront! wonder what the situation is in the backyard.
on top of it, along this stinking messy frontage, a dosa machine is operated, with some filthy old plastic wrappers held together as a 'chajja' over it. here, out in the open, a man fills plastic bags with the dosa batter - which is open for any kind of creature to sit on it. amazing!
i wonder why no one from the Pune Municipal Corp or even residents of the area shopping there dont bother?
when i spoke to the supervisor, he just looked away embarrassed.
when i spoke to his supervisor he told me he came here just 3 weeks ago
when i spoke to HIS supervisor, he said he was sent here just 7 days ago from bombay.
i told them that i have noticed this state of affairs for over a month now.
so the buck passes on.
i asked them how they could afford to be so filthy when there is an epidemic in the city and when there is a recession too!
i'm sure other Reliance Rotten stores will also make for not-so-pretty pictures. the one in Bavdhan near my home is bad news too.
i have the names and numbers and email ids of the 3 guys that i spoke to.
i want to also draw the larger company's attention to this - will figure out how, soon.
