According to Sadhan Pande, State Consumer Affairs Minister, there has been a rise in the number of complaints received from consumers regarding sales on online platform.
“E-commerce platforms have to be careful about the delivery of goods, as promised on their sites,” he said at an interactive session organised by the Merchants’ Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Pande, however, did not mention what measures specific to e-commerce sites would be taken.
The State government is planning to enter into partnership with companies such as Raymond Ltd and Berger Paints for skill development among unemployed youth.
