Correct Answer: The assertion is incorrect, but the reason is correct.


Solution : The correct answer is (d) The assertion is incorrect, but the reason is correct.

The assertion is incorrect. The Consumer Protection Act indeed provides consumers with various rights and protections to ensure their interests are safeguarded in the marketplace. Therefore, option c) "The assertion is correct" is not accurate.

The reason is correct. The Consumer Protection Act does enable consumers to voice their complaints and seek remedies when they are dissatisfied with products or services. However, this reason doesn't correctly explain the assertion, as it contradicts the assertion itself.

In summary, the assertion is incorrect because the Consumer Protection Act indeed provides consumers with rights, and the reason is correct in stating that the Act allows consumers to express their grievances and seek redress, but it doesn't explain the initial assertion that consumers have no rights under the Act.
