History of Consumer Rights Day:-
This Consumer Rights Day was inspired by US President John F Kennedy and a special message was sent by him to the US Congress on 15 March 1962, in which he formally addressed the issue of consumer rights. Since 1983, this day is being celebrated every year on 15th March.
Kennedy said that the definition of consumers includes all of us. They are the largest economic group, influenced and influenced by almost every public and private economic decision. Yet they are the only important group… whose views are often not heard.
