The year 2025 closed with a series of consumer rights breaches in the services sector. In early December, IndiGo cancelled and rescheduled flights en masse due to operational mismanagement and pilot scheduling issues.In the securities markets, —Avadhut Sathe Trading Academy was alleged to have misled its students on various counts. And, in a lesser-known incident, a consumer approached the Supreme Court over an incorrect negative credit score that refused to rectify despite previous court orders. In all three cases, an arm of the State intervened, but consumers did not get compensation for the harms they suffered. This underscores a larger faultine: the law has weakened the average Indian consumer by taking away their agency to sue the service provider and obtain relief for themselves. If we're serious about consumer welfare, we must empower them to sue, invidually where possible and collectively, where necessary. Watch this week's column by Bhargavi Zaveri-Shah for #ThePrint

Oh was that Vir Singhvi? I thought it Imam of Jama Masjid 🤦
How pathetic! work of fiction. Emanates from your hate for Hinduism. Shameful
eww

God permit, these doctors should be treating you in future.
Complete waste of time. If you are doing journalism since long time doesn't mean you are journalists, remained कचरा at this age of life. We did not expect much from the print but this is disgusting. No substance.
For God's sake name the former Army Chief accurately
Great analysis 👍
Wrong title
The initial few minutes are blank
You want muslim women leadership to toe line of what male chauvinist leaders? We want women leadership to take up women's issues. Pathetic. Podcast
High Court decision must be challenged in Print's Court.
She can United:)
Heard of editing? Cut the Crap
What am idiotic argument 'why India is refusing visas to Afghans if India wants to be big player'. Did USA, China Pak grant visas to Afghans? You have no sense of National Security Issues. Please quit.
Clubbing our Prime Minister in the club of Trump, Bolsnaro and Putin was a pathetic attempt to hijack the discussion. Good that the guest did not comment. Then declaring that the largest media Org of India is not truthful is indicative of your motivated journalism contrary to what Print claims about un- hyphenated journalism.

Hi, I love the podcasts from The Print, listen to them almost everyday. Thank you for making them. It would be really great if the readings were done in a style similar to the editor's picks by The Economist. Just a suggestion though. Thank you.
Fully politically motivated podcast.
