Misleading advertisements, tricks gullible consumer in purchasing the products and services which are often health hazards or substandard in quality, for example – various pills/food supplements, fairness creams, etc.  The Department of Consumer Affairs, Government of India having its office at New Delhi, would not be able to check the menace of misleading advertisement without the active participation and help from the State Governments, local self-Governments and the Police department of the States. These authorities are expected to intensify their action against the misleading advertisements as also the misleading advertisers on their own or once altered by the voluntary consumer organizations.

\

Suggestions are invited on how the State Govt., local self-government and Police can take effective measures against Misleading Advertisements.

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

There is no stringent restriction on the manufacturing and disposal of non bio-degradable goods such as SANITARY NAPKINS, DIAPERS, CONDOMS, etc These products are used and thrown by people here and there. These things are responsible for water clogging in drainages, public toilets, etc People are irresponsible. It will take years to educate them and till then the entire planet will become a garbage depot. Best thing is to eliminate the root cause. Go for Bio-degradable SANITARY NAPKINS & DIAPERS

The Garbage depots are located near the cities/villages every where in the country. Their condition is pathetic. The garbage is not properly disposed off in these garbage depots. Most of the depots burn the garbage/waste. This increases the problem. The garbage which was in solid form gets converted into gaseous form and it gets settled in the surrounding areas. It is inhaled by the human beings and animals. Thus they spread the epidemic. The government needs to address this issue on war footing

CNG & hybrid Buses should be started every in the country to reduce the air pollution by these buses. The same should be applied to other private vehicles. Water & Railway transport should be increased to minimize the pollution. While improving water transport, there are chances of water getting polluted. This also needs to be addressed by putting restrictions of passengers so that they do not throw the garbage/waste in the water.

Railways have lot of land available across the countries in the form of railway stations. Need to develop these lands and construct Malls, Hospitals, Cinema theatres, Hotels, etc. The railways will get huge revenue from this for their new projects like Metro trains & Bullet Trains.

The Film stars, Celebraties, Sports men earn huge money. For one film they are making 100 crores. For one advertisement of 2 minutes these guys get crores of Rupees which a common man can not even earn during his 40 years of service. Is it really justified that somebody gets crores for a 2 minutes advertisement? This creates too much of disparity in our country. There has to be some restriction on the earnings of these guys. Need to impose 60% to 70% income tax on earnings more than 10 crores.

The corrupt politicians and bureaucrats eat our hard earned money in the name of development projects. For example the dividers are constructed, broken by the municipal corporations & again reconstructed. Roads are constructed, again they are broken by the municipal corporations & again reconstructed. They do this n number of times and think that the public is foolish. There has to be an onus of maintaining roads on the concerned officer and severe punishment (termination of service) for failure

To reduce the E-waste, mobile companies should come up with such a product where in the mobile phones will have 4K displays and the hardware/software both should be upgradable without changing the handset. For example if you want to upgrade the RAM from 1GB to 3GB, you just insert a chip of 3GB (like a SIM card). The same way you should be able to upgrade the processor from 1.2Ghz to 2.7 Ghz. This will enable the user to retain the same handset and will help to reduce E-waste.

Most of the times during any protest the crowd burn tyres and this creates huge pollution. I would like to suggest the tyre manufacturing companies to come up with such a product which will not be easily burnt.

US is worried about the pollution in Delhi as Obama is visiting India for the Republic Day. We take this casually but, this is a serious concern. We need to control pollution before its too late. Need to close down the factories manufacturing fire crackers. They are absolutely useless. Industries whose pollution is beyond limit need to close down without a second thought. The revenue coming from these industries in not more than human lives.

Government has to make very stringent rules for proper education in the schools, colleges & educational institutes. Most of the educational institutes have engaged teaching staff, who have no teaching experience and qualification required for teaching i.e. B.Ed., D.Ed., etc. The non qualified teachers are appointed to save the cost. However, they spoil the careers of poor students. If teacher himself is not OK then how can he/she educate & develop the students. They are spoiling the generation.
