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.

May be my views not limited to the topic. However, I want to suggest that: a. Nomination for fighting an election be allowed only from the constituency where the person voted during last election for the same body. This will promote local workers and we can avoid nominations from two places. Floor crossing after election should not be crime. The elected members are after all not slaves of any political gang. Otherwise there is no point in holding election for Rajya sabha members.

BBC is Broadcasting "Rapist" interview in spite of opposition by Indian Parliament. This is grate insult of Sovereignty of India. We are not slaves of UK anymore. Indian Government should Immediately stop the Broadcasting by contacting British Embassy. If Still BBC airs the show Indian Government must BAN BBC in India. Prosecute BBC to highest level. Ban All operations as well as all reporters of BBC in India. Will Modi Government show that it has this much Strength. India's Prestige point

अगर इस सम्बन्ध में सरकार कोई ऐसा कानून या विधेयक लाए जिस में इस तरह के मिथ्याप्रचार को बढ़ावा देने वाले टीवी और अख़बार, मैगज़ीन आदि पर भारी जुर्माना और सजा का प्रावधान किया जाए तो शायद भविष्य में कोई टीवी या प्रिंट मीडिया इस तरह के विज्ञापन को दिखाने या छपाने से पहले दस बार सोचेगा..! जहाँ तक बात है स्थानीय स्तर पर तो स्थानीय प्रशासन और पुलिस इस तरह के भ्रामक प्रचारों पर नज़र रखके लोगों को यथास्थिति से अवगत करवा सकती है.

मेरा मानना है कि सबसे पहले टीवी और प्रिंट मीडिया में इस तरह के प्रचार पर रोक लगनी चाहिए, जो कि बड़ी आसानी से लगाई भी जा सकती है. हमारे टीवी और प्रिंट जगत के लोग महज़ कुछ पैसों के लिए लाखों लोगों की जिंदगियों के साथ खिलवाड़ कर बैठते हैं. आम तौर पर देखा गया है कि गली-नुक्कड़ और घुमंतू जालसाज लोगों को टीवी और अख़बार आदि के विज्ञापनों का रेफरेन्स देकर धोखाधड़ी को अंजाम देते हैं. इस बावत टीवी और अख़बार आदि भी ऐसे विज्ञापनों पर एक छोटा-सा नोट लिख कर अपना पल्ला झाड़ देते हैं कि ग्राहक अपने विवेक से काम लें.

Misleading Advertisement in India are more often found, you can find it on roads, inside trains and many other places.you can get ride of by heavily fining,banning them for a Month for a warning only.you can banned for lifetime if they repeat,prison for up-to 1 year. Make a different department for Analyzing this type of Misleading Advertisement and there are lots of other thing you can do to avoid them from misleading.
