The Supreme Court on Wednesday noted that the Central government should not present false words with respect to loading up the vacancies in the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC).
Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Hrishikesh Roy remarked that there are three vacancies in the NCDRC and ordered the government to appoint up the same within 8 weeks.
Pertinently, the Court also directed the government to attend a legislative influence study of the Consumer Protection Act within 4 weeks.
When the Central government lawyer suggested that the same is too short a time period to manage such a study, the Court said that the government has been churning outlaws within very short time periods and therefore the influence of laws can also be examined within such short duration.
