Which of the following in true?

Solution (By Examveda Team)

A careful reading of the options shows that Option A is incorrect because consumer courts possess powers necessary to enforce their orders and can take action in cases of contempt or non-compliance.

Option B is also incorrect because professional services rendered for consideration, such as medical and legal services, generally fall within the scope of the Consumer Protection Act in cases of deficiency in service.

Option C is the correct statement. Although consumer courts can direct a person to discontinue misleading advertisements and may impose penalties, they cannot compel a person to make a confession or admit guilt. Courts decide matters on the basis of evidence and legal provisions rather than forced confessions.

Since Option C is true, Option D (None of the above) cannot be correct.

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer. Exam Note: If the original source or answer key marks Option D, it is likely based on an intended wording such as "cannot force a person indulging in misleading advertising to quit," in which case the interpretation changes. However, based on the statement exactly as written, Option C is the strongest and most logically correct answer.
