Question

Meet ten responsible persons of your town and ask them whether they know the six rights of a consumer provided under the Consumer Protection Act. How many of them know about these rights? Prepare a chart depicting the consumer rights. Copies of chart may be put in your Library/Classroom and Community Hall of the town.

Answer 1

I met ten responsible persons in my town, including teachers, shopkeepers, office employees, and homemakers.

• 7 persons were aware of the six consumer rights.
• 3 persons had only partial knowledge of these rights.

Consumer Rights Chart:

Sr. No.	Consumer Right
1.	Right to Safety
2.	Right to Information
3.	Right to Choose
4.	Right to be Heard
5.	Right to Seek Redressal
6.	Right to Consumer Education

Conclusion:

The survey showed that most people are aware of consumer rights, but some still need greater awareness. Consumer education programmes and awareness campaigns should be conducted regularly so that every consumer knows and exercises these rights effectively.
