Republic Day 2022: Rights of an electronics customer

Every year as the calendar hits reset, January brings us a crucial historic milestone that paved the way for an independent India.

While we know the foundation of Republic Day, there are several aspects of our rights as Indian citizens unknown to us. So, if you, as a digital consumer, are looking to brush up on yours, we have them listed for your reference below. Read on to find out what they are:

1. Right to Lifetime Assurance

So, the next time you’re thinking about buying your dream gadget, you can keep the anxiety surrounding it at bay.

Old and reusable electronics are further refurbished and used for boosting education in rural areas. And in case there are hazardous materials such as lead, mercury or cadmium, they’re shipped to a Government-run CHWT facility that promises safe and sound disposal in an environmentally friendly way.
