| Shiv Sena demands opening of consumer complaint centers in every district | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Nov 5: The Shiv Sena J&K unit has raised its voice for the protection of the rights of consumers and demanded opening of consumer complaint centers in every district. Led by Manish Sahni, President Shiv Sena J&K unit along with party activists and local residents carried out a demonstration against a mall in Janipur against misbehavior, arbitrariness and sale of substandard and expired goods to customers.
Sahni said that complete information was given to the state metrology and the concerned food inspector but no-one reached the spot. Even their consumer support helpline does not work, he said adding that mere claims are made about the protection of consumer rights.
"In Jammu & Kashmir, the consumer protection forum is only in the court complex at Janipur in Jammu and the court complex at Srinagar. Under the law, there should be a consumer forum in every district of the state, but so far this forum has been established only in files," he said. Sahni appealed LG to take serious note of consumers' problems and direct the authorities concerned for opening of consumer complaints centers in every district of the Jammu and Kashmir. |
