Mayawati is blocking reliance only on one ground & that is large scale monopoly that can throw away small retailers out of the market if the state govt can show that in public interest litigation then this act of govt can stand up in the court of law. thats the answer of your statement above but I am completely agree with you that a legitimate business should not be restricted in any way....Relaince can file a restraint on trade petition but it is unlikely bcoz they are facing the same situation in every state.
