Ans. This Statements is True.
1. In India, a large
number of consumers are not educated, ignorant, indifferent etc. Therefore,
they are not aware about the goods that are available in the market, quality,
price, term and sale etc.
2. Since most of the
consumers are not educated they do not know their rights and duties and they
get cheated and exploited.
3. Therefore, a
consumer movement is necessary because you are able to guide and educate them
about their rights, duties, marketing procedures, quality standards,
availability of credit etc. Such information can be given by seminars,
exhibitions, demonstrations, film shows etc.
4. Consumer movement
is necessary to fight against the malpractices of businessman, monopolistic
tendencies, injustice to the consumers and to protect the consumer’s right in a
peaceful manner.
5. Thus, Consumer
Protection Act is a blessing for the consumers.
