Misleading advertisements covers all sectors of business across the country. The vulnerable sections of the society living in the backward and rural areas are the worst sufferers. To tackle the menace of misleading advertisements in such areas, the roles of VCOs are perceived to be of great importance. The VCOs working in various parts of the country with their experience in handling consumer related issues may help identifying misleading advertisements and suggest appropriate action to the consumers, State Governments and local self-Governments.

Suggestions are invited on the role of the voluntary consumer organisations in tackling the menace of Misleading Advertisements.

The last date for submission of your comments is 23rd January 2015.

I agree with Mr R Mahadevan that we need BioToilets. There are lot of technologies available. I am sure the present govt has explored them. I am sure there will be some startups coming soon in this area

Sir I recently shifted to my new home. There is a very reputed school nearby. Also within that vicinity is a slum . Unfortunately when the school buses are plying , at the same time residents of the slums are defeating on the same road. I have seen reaction of parents and children which range from laughing to making faces but no one seems to care. roads are not being developed as the local corporateor is opposed to that . But does he understand the risk he is posing to the society with this.

The main problem SWACCH BHARAT faces is open defecation. The only sure way to tacke this problem is the usasge of BIOTOILETS. The government should go all out to ensure the commercial manufacture of such toilets & involve the NGOS in a big way through out the lengh & breadth of the country. Just imagine the long term benefits. No wastage of water, no stinking drains, no maintenance by the user & also the municipal corporations.

Sir, to quote two examples, 1. fairness creams - supposed to make women & now even men fair & attractive. There is obviously no medical truth in it as we are all born with a certain no.of melanocytes, pigment cells which can't be altered by creams. 2. cigarettes - supposed to make young men macho & attractive, but only causes ill-health to the smoker & those who passively inhale. Obviously, both outcomes are known, yet people continue to indulge, hence a change in mindset is the need of the hour

बहुत अच्छी बात है की आप चाहते हैं कि सभी नागरिकोँ का स्वास्थ्य बीमा हो वहीँ LIC जैसी बड़ी संस्था अपने स्वास्थ्य बीमा तालिका न.901 और 902 की सर्जरी लिस्ट मैं ऐसी सर्जरी शामिल किये हैं जो सबसे काम होती हैं जो ज्यादा होती हैं वह शामिल नहीं हैं और शामिल करने का कोई प्रावधान भी नहीं है नई तकनीक के कारण गंभीर रोगिओं को 4 -5 दिन मैं डिस्चार्ज कर दिया जाता है ऐसे मैं भी पहले दो दिन को छोड़कर भुगतान किया जाता है Day Care Procedures का भुगतान नहीँ होता नई योजना 903 मैं कुछ सुधार किये हैं परन्तु portability

Excessive use of Tobacco and Nicotine by our Youth in Hookah bars existing in our country. Immature teenagers spend their parent’s hard earned money to spoil their own lives.They are supposed to be the future of India.But unfortunately, most of our Indian Youth is getting addicted to use of tobacco,drugs etc and is getting misguided.You should take steps to ban these hookah bars. It should not be acceptable legally as well as morally.
