Abstract
Consumer Protection Act is not the only redressal agency available to the consumers for redressal of their grievances. Many other legislations have been enacted in India from time to time which help the common person in dealing with the violation of his rights vis-a-vis the goods and services being availed of by him. Some of the major Acts, providing for and relating to consumer interest, have been discussed in this chapter. The discussion of the provisions is as far as possible, non-legalistic and comprehensive without going into all minute details. The researcher has taken care of discussing some of the major legislations in India relating to protection of consumer interest and consumer awareness.
