Pepsico

Lolly-water manufacturer Pepsico finds Frito-Lay India, a snack-making subsidiary, unable to take possession of land because two small factories, backed by Mamata Banerjee’s opposition Trinamool Congress, have refused to move out. It seems that Pepsico have no legitimate right to occupy the plot but the Marxist CPM are as usual trying to muscle it in at the expense of the locals.

IMO: MNCs like Pepsico are in the hands of non Indians and like the Russian Mafia, often bring only harm, overall, to India. One remembers Coca-Cola's pollution of the valuable drinking water in Kerala and its attempted selling of water polluted by carcinogens in Sidcup, England as "pure bottled water" until the UK health services stopped it. These non-Indian MNCs regularly attempt tax fraud on the Indian Government. So why destroy small Indian firms for Pepsico ? Get rid of Buddha and the CPM NOW.
