Solution

The correct option is A The right to be informed
The Consumer Protection Act of 1986 assures consumers of the ‘right to be informed’. The consumer has the right to be informed about the quality, quantity, purity, standard, and price of goods to protect the consumer from unfair trade practices. If a person finds mislabelling and misrepresentation of a product, then he/she can approach the consumer court under the right to be informed.
