Administration, Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs Department and
District Legal Service Authority at Vidya Mangal Karyalaya in Yadgir on Monday.
Do not cheat
Traders
should not cheat consumers to make quick money. Instead they should earn the
confidence of their customers by giving less stress on making huge profits.
The
consumers too should never buy things in black market. They should be sure of
what they are buying, he said.
Be aware
Deputy
Commissioner Gurneet Tej Menon said that when people get cheated, they should
be aware of consumer rights.
Every
consumer should develop the habit of verifying the authenticity of the claims
of advertisements, which are shown in media everyday.
Instead
of symbolically observing World Consumers Day by the government, if each
consumer observes the day, the Day will become more meaningful, she said.
Zilla Panchayat’s administrative deputy secretary
B.V.Bhosle said that the consumer cases should be solved within 150 days and
released a handbook on consumer’s rights published by Food and Civil Supplies
Department.
