UPSC MAINS MODEL ANSWER:
Q4. Examine the role of supermarkets in supply chain management of fruits, vegetables, and food items. How do they eliminate the number of intermediaries?
India is one of the leading producers of vegetables, fresh fruits and a number of food items. Marketing of fruits and vegetables especially is more challenging than many industrial products because of their perishability, seasonality and bulkiness. A supermarket is a self-service shop offering a wide variety of food and household products.
The roles of supermarkets in supply chain management are as follows:
Transportation: The perishability of fruits, vegetables and other food items require swift transportation facility so that their freshness remain intact. Supermarkets are equipped with such swift transportation facilities.
Better Storage Facilities: The better refrigeration facilities provided by supermarkets increases the shelf-life of these products so that consumers can purchase them fresh.
Price Discovery: Most of the supermarkets purchase these products directly from the farmers, helping in the better discovery of prices for them.
In this way, supermarkets help in elimination of intermediaries such as agents and auctioneers. Normally in traditional markets, these agents and auctioneers purchase produce from the farmers and sell it to the wholesalers from where the produce goes to the retailers and then to consumers. The supermarkets eliminate this entire chain, as they procure directly from farmers and sell directly to the consumers.
Reliance Fresh and Reliance trends, Foodworld, and Easyday an example of supermarket in India.
Right to Internet :
*✅ Faheema Shirin v. State of Kerala: Kerala High court recognized that mobile phones and internet access through it are part and parcel of the day-to-day life. The court took the view that right to be able to access the internet has been read into the fundamental right to life and liberty, as well as privacy under Article 21.* The court added that it constitutes an essential part of the infrastructure of freedom of speech and expression.
**✅Anuradha Bhasin v. Union of India: The Supreme Court held that right to freedom of speech and expression and right to practise any profession, or to carry on any occupation, trade or business over the medium of internet is constitutionally protected under Article 19(1)(a) and 19(1)(g).**
