About the Competition
The Consumer Protection Act, 2019 came into effect in August 2019 and has been notified in the month of July this year. The legislation has repealed the three decades old Consumer Protection Act, 1986 and completely overhauled the law with the objective of providing timely and effective administration and settlement of consumer disputes.
The objective is to provide an opportunity and a conducive platform to students from all streams at various universities to expand, explore and develop their knowledge of consumer laws through the medium of a National Quiz.
