Misleading ads continue while Govt inactive

See attached now Dabur Chavyanprash says eat 2 spoons and u will have protection from Covid. How about consumer affairs imposes a fine of 500 crores on Dabur equivalent to one year sales. And guess what they get Akshay Kumar to do the ad so lower level officers go ‘who will mess with him he is to sarkar ka friend” this is ridiculous.

Please issue a misleading ad notice Consumer Affairs. For 12 months many many brands have been fooling consumers selling bull shit against Covid and u guys have done - SQUAT more

There are such instances of misleading advertisement and government should take action. more  
such misleading ad has become a trend in recent times. A big no.of products tagged Covid 19 trade mark in last one year. Govt. was aware of such ad but no one bothered to stop such misleading Ad. Is it really possible for an industry to make such false claim with no fear? If not why no action was initiated in last one year? In fact we live with a short memory as we have shown our blind belief and reposed faith on no. of false promises repeatedly in last couple of years and industry also noticed it and made full use of such blind belief to enhance business. Now it's the consumers to decide how to take safeguard measures or contest such misleading ad as our administrative autority is sleeping well. more
