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 recently applied for a copyright for my calculator app, "process calculator". After four months nothing has progressed. Please note no one will give govt original working code unless a non disclosure is signed. As such if you need progress you would need to in proper time period process genuine applications. Other wise there would be no progress in the nation. I propose highest importance given to intellectual work produced in the country and speedy processing for all tax payers.

I think there should be a time period for that organization to take action and also if there is a need of employment for that organization that should be completed by that states government. In my point of view online presentation of all the issues, guidelines, taken actions, is the best way to clear all type of corruption or mistake but one thing is there to take in mind that actions should be done impartially and there should not be delay of any kind without any reason.

Human life is more valuable that anything.Everybody will agree on this point. But there is compulsory INSURANCE on vehicles, which are less valuable compared to Human life. But,there is NO act, which directs us to do LIFE INSURANCE POLICY. Kindly make LIFE INSURANCE POLICY compulsory to every Indian citizen as per there capacity and this will provide economic security to every family.

Consumer forums and almost all government organised plans are loosing their dignity because of idealness in every decision,if really consumer organisations want to stop promoters from misleading the consumers.first of all the officers,autherised persons should personally watch the advertisements and should judge the accuracy of the promishes made by the companies.The organisations should take actions according to their perception as they are themselves smarter than a common consumer (like us)

Film industry is biggest promoter of misleading advertisements. In PK film, all hindu traditions have been attacked. Can any one do this to islam/christianity. why Modi ji is silent on role of cinema since 1913 in promoting crime against women. ban/control films and women will be safer like in pre-1913 era. Film industry is receiving black money from international terrorist groups to attack hindu culture, since 1980s. Empty cinema halls but all tickets sold is only to convert black into white.
