Having reconsidered, I confirm the editor's action.
>Jaipurplus has equity stake in the Indian Trade leads, but else every thing is different, the design, the layout, web application etc are totally different.
OK, I'll get technical again. What you've described is not a "doorway" but a "fraternal mirror." (The "doorway" term is arguably also accurate but is less comprehensive, IMO.)
This quote from the submittal guidelines is what should have told you not ever to have submitted that site in the first place: "Do not submit URLs that contain only the same or similar content as other sites you may have listed in the directory. Sites with overlapping and repetitive content are not helpful to users of the directory. Multiple submissions of the same or related sites may result in the exclusion and/or deletion of those and all affiliated sites." You can read the whole document at
http://dmoz.org/add.html ; and I believe that we have a right to expect that professional website developers who wish to continue to be submitters will know and abide by it.
If you want the site linked from that category, you should seek it indirectly from the admittedly and obviously related and interested site Jaipurplus.com already listed in that ODP category, and not from the ODP.
