Consumer Rights and Awareness

In the developing country like India, measures for consumer protection are very much required. The illiteracy and ignorance of the majority of consumers both in the rural and urban areas provide opportunities for business communities to follow unfair trade practices. These have to be curtailed through various measures of the Government and other non-Governmental organisations. Of the various legal remedies available, the principle legal protection is the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. Under this Act, the consumer gets opportunities to entrust his grievances through the consumer forums organised at the District, State and National levels and other voluntary consumer organisations. The Consumer awareness, protection and preservation of consumer rights and well analyzed in this book.
