Sindh Minister for Industries and Commerce & Cooperative Department, Jam Ikram Ullah Dharejo has said that although Sindh government has established consumer courts almost in all districts across the province, but due to lack of awareness on the issue, the consumers are unable to protect their rights. Speaking at 14th Consumer Choice Awards Ceremony, he said it was a need of the hour that consumers' courts should be established.
Sindh Govt has established these courts but they are not functioning properly due to lack of awareness among consumers regarding their rights. He said that time has come that all stakeholders, working for the cause, should work on a same page to create awareness among consumers about their rights, especially media should play its positive role in this regard. He was of the opinion that in all modern and civilized societies, the consumer courts played a key role in getting the rights of the consumers. "Sindh government is fully committed to protect the rights of the consumers and will ready to cooperate with all stakeholders working for the cause of the consumers' rights," he added .
