Correct Answer: To educate consumers about their rights and responsibilities


Solution : The correct answer is (b) To educate consumers about their rights and responsibilities.

The Consumer Protection Councils established under the Consumer Protection Act have the primary purpose of educating consumers about their rights and responsibilities. These councils are designed to create awareness among consumers, empower them with knowledge about their legal rights, and promote responsible consumer behavior. It's important to note that the Consumer Protection Councils do not primarily focus on resolving disputes between consumers and producers or regulating prices of essential commodities. Their primary role is consumer education, awareness, and advocacy.
