What are the means of strengthening consumer movements to protect consumer rights? Please explain in detail.

Dear Student

1. The Consumer Protection Act was enacted in 1986 . The objective of the Act was to provide for the better protection of the interests of the consumer and to make provisions for establishment of consumer councils and other authorities for settlement of consumer disputes and matter therewith connected. 
2. In order to promote and protect the rights and interests of consumers, quasi judicial machinery is sought to be set up at district, state and central levels
3. The departments regularly put out advertisements in newspapers and magazines, and on television to make consumers conscious of their rights.
