Session on “Say No to False Ads” at AMA Ahmedabad
CERC’s Ms Anusha Iyer led an engaging and insightful session at Ahmedabad Management Association (AMA) on the theme “Say No to False Ads.” The session focused on strengthening awareness about misleading advertisements and empowering consumers to make informed choices in an increasingly media-driven marketplace.
Ms Shweta Mahajan further emphasised the significance of consumer education and awareness of rights, highlighting how informed consumers can effectively safeguard themselves against deceptive marketing practices.
The discussion centred around key aspects such as:
• Misleading Advertisements: Understanding the tactics used in false or exaggerated claims that misguide consumers.
• Identifying False Claims: Learning to assess and verify the authenticity of advertisements across various media.
• Protecting Consumer Rights: Knowing the legal provisions and redressal mechanisms available to address misleading promotions.
The session encouraged participants to stay vigilant, question unverified claims, and exercise their consumer rights responsibly. Through such initiatives, CERC continues to promote truth in advertising and foster a more transparent marketplace.
