Consumer protection in line with New India mission : PM Modi
Speaking at the inauguration of International Conference of Consumer Protection in Delhi, the PM said the Government has been able to keep inflation under check in the last three years, thereby ensuring savings for consumers.
He said the Government is preparing to enact a new Consumer Protection Act which will strengthen the guidelines on misleading advertisements.
“Consumer protection in an inseparable part of governance. Our vedas have an extensive mention of consumer protection,” Modi said.
Modi said the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will boost competition between companies and bring down the prices of goods.
“GST will boost competition between companies, which will decrease prices of goods, in turn, benefiting poor and middle-class consumers,” he said.
