Franchisee Vrs Common Man


                                               Franchisees vs. common man .Here there is a common differentiation how people are looted by these franchisee owners .Are we not really looted if we see it. Now a days we can see there are many coaching institutes, computer institutes have opened their shops in our cities. Yes “A shops” I can merely say or frankly say .Why so if the question arises, the probable answer would because they only buy and sell the commodity every second to or from third grocery shop.Dont they? Specially on ground of education I can say. Let’s take an example- Like a branded xyz coaching institute opens a franchisee in a very small town . It advertises, does publicity, etc everything to attract customers which are students. But after one year you come to know that this xyz institute has been closed for reasons like their payment or many illegal ways. But the company does realize that the franchisee in this city has actually suffered the loss. They found that they were not gaining profit. But who will take care of the loss that the students or customers are suffering. Are they going to be part of the sufferings, depressions or pain that the students are going to suffer? Like wise there are many professional institutes which gives professional trainings and in their advertisement they say “100% placement”. Why do they do this? Why do they show mirage to in a desert. Are they really able to place them? Can they show the results of whole India? But do they show the placement of their town? .They cant, as the truth is they haven’t. Because the institute teaches us but the person himself gets placed, they teach us the theory but practical the student has to do himself. They have to apply in work. Then what about 100% placement. And one more thing to say the place where its headquarters are and the franchisee has been opened do they maintain the same teaching style, same infrastructure. No, it varies because the franchiser don’t utilize their own brain as it is not a branch .Because branch have direct authority but franchisees dont. I can simply say companies are great fool or they pretend to be fool as they limit themselves to the profit only not the soul of the brand, and the name and fame what they have earned in so many years are being ruined by the franchisee owners. The franchisee owners have become big looters where they only see their own profit and play with the career of students and money of a common man.Simply the common man is the sufferer.
             One more thing I want to say regarding the coaching institutes. I know it’s a totally different matter from that topic. We as parents, why are we running to the coaching institutes for our wards? Why? Do the parents of ours were not studying or there were no engineers or doctors without coaching institutes .Are we not the root cause of emerging coaching institutes or tutorials. We have the answer within ourselves only .If we go to Mr. Narayan Murthy , founder of  Infosys and ask how many coaching institutes have been you to qualify IIT or engineering , or APJ Abdul Kalam how many institutes he had been for becoming  a scientists? There would be answer none. Knowledge is within every child just a proper guidance, nurturing is needed which the school can do. Had not we sent them to private tuitions and encouraged the teachers for extra income they might have taught excellent in schools. Why are we running to these tutorials or coaching institutes to qualify our ward in IIT or Engineering or Medical Exams. If we can run to them or we have money power then why cant we pressurize the school authority to teach them properly  or invest some more in the school. So that if any students qualifies then let the school take the credit. Why the coaching institute make  money from your ward advertising its product through  your ward. No, its simply ridiculous. We have made education totally commercial thing. So the level of education has gone very up. Please do think of it what we have done .Ultimately we will be the losers. Though we will gain but we will be loose in the other hand. Just think about it and join hands to discourage the coaching centre, money making centers and encourage class room study .Because money is hard earned and we cant let it flow it out easily to these money mongers. We are the person who can build the career of our wards and we can runner’s of ruining our wards career.

  1. Very nicely said Aparajita. I agree with you whatever you have written. The hard truth is...everything is commercialized in today's India and amazingly education too. The more amazing part is our Government has absolutely no control over the so called commercialization of education in India. See these mushrooming engineering and MBA institutes around every gali and mohalla of your city. Has the Government ever questioned over the quality of education they deliver and the exorbitant fees they suck from parents???
    We should not blame it on the Government alone. The parents are equally responsible for this. They just want their kids to join a coaching centre to excel in examination rather that taking care of their studies at home or school, and every parent want their kid to be an engineer by spending whatever amount these institutes charge, with out bothering about the quality of education they deliver or the credentials of the promoters behind these educational or coaching institutes.
    This is high time, these institutes should be brought under Government regulations, and to check their exploitations in the name of education.

  3. I truely believe that we are a nation of followers and not leaders.....we do what is said to us!!! No wonder that we are being offshored all the low-end back office work....and are we not lapping it up too gleefully ??

    We have a profusion of serice cos like TCS, Infy , Wipro and more than a dozen others. How about a Google or a Yahoo or a Microsoft ? Do we not belive that we have the ability to do it ??

    And i blame the educatio system and each one of us for this situation..
