Understanding Consumer Rights in Pakistan
Consumer protection laws are essential to ensure fair trade practices, protect consumers’ interests, and address consumer grievances. In Pakistan, the Consumer Rights Protection Act of 2005 serves as the central piece of legislation concerning consumer rights.
Under this Act, consumers have the right to information about goods and services, protection against hazardous goods, access to a variety of goods at competitive prices, and redressal in case of unfair trade practices. It also provides for the establishment of consumer courts to handle such matters.
Despite these rights, many consumers in Pakistan are unaware of them or how to exercise them. Additionally, the legalities involved in enforcing these rights can be daunting for many.
