Question

Lata visited a grocery shop and purchased a packet of biscuit. The Maximum Retail Price (MRP) was not clearly printed on this packet. Which Right of the consumer was violated here?

Options

• Right to Safety

• Right to Choose

• Right to Seek Redressal

• Right to be Informed

Answer 1

Right to be Informed

Explanation:

This scenario illustrates a violation of the right to be informed, which guarantees customers clear and accurate information about a product’s price, ingredients, and quality before purchasing. Missing or unclear printing of the Maximum Retail Price (MRP) deprives Lata of critical purchase information, preventing her from checking fair pricing and making an informed consumer decision.
