Consumerism today has become an international force. The nuance of consumer protection, fulfillment of consumer aspirations and satisfaction is now recognized as an integral component of each and every welfare oriented economic development process. It is now over a decade since the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 was passed after year of lobbying by the various consumer organizations. The redressal machinery, however, is not fully satisfactory. The number of cases pending in the district forums is piling high. Unless consumer groups take determined action to see that the institutions set up for their protection work effectively, the redressal agencies will go the way of civil courts, where litigants have to wait for years and spend fortunes for the settlements of their disputes.
