Elaborate the ‘Right to Safety’ as a consumer right.

Right to Safety:

(i)While using many goods and services, we as consumers, have the right to be protected against the marketing of goods and delivery of services that are hazardous to life and property.

(ii)Producers need to strictly follow the required safety rules and regulations.

(iii)There are many goods and services that we purchase that require special attention to safety.

(iv)For example, pressure cookers have a safety valve which, if it is defective, can cause a serious accident. The manufacturers of the safety valve have to ensure high quality. You also need public or government action to see that this quality is maintained.

(v)However, we do find bad quality products in the market because the supervision of these rules is weak and the consumer movement is also not strong enough.
