Seema purchased a TV for Rs. 1500015000, and she found that it was not working properly. Despite efforts, Seema was not able to file a complaint. Which of the following consumer rights has been violated in this case?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Option 1 -> Right to be informed relates to receiving accurate information about products/services before purchase, which is not the issue here.

Option 2 -> Right to seek redressal is about obtaining compensation or resolution for grievances, but this comes after the complaint is filed.

Option 3 -> Right to be heard ensures consumers can voice their complaints and have them considered at appropriate forums, which was denied to Seema.

Option 4 -> Right to consumer education is about acquiring knowledge to make informed decisions, not about filing complaints.


Hence, Option 3: Right to be heard -> Seema was unable to file her complaint despite efforts, meaning she was prevented from voicing her grievance at the appropriate consumer forum. This directly violates her right to be heard, which guarantees that consumers can present their complaints and have them acknowledged -> correct
