Consumer affairs ministry to consult consumer rights bodies, e-comm cos
The government will examine if cash-on-delivery (COD) charges imposed by online retailers are aimed at nudging consumers to pay upfront and why refunds are delayed or blocked if prepaid orders are cancelled, said two people aware of the matter.
The ministry of consumer affairs is reviewing all such complaints and is expected to hold consultations with e-commerce companies, consumer rights organisations and industry bodies to arrive at a practical solution that balances operational needs with consumer protection, the people said on condition of anonymity since details are not public yet.
They didn’t disclose the number of such complaints received, but encouraged customers to raise concerns through National Consumer Helpline (NCH).

Fly me to the moon...
It wasn't easy, bringing the stars indoors. The world's first planetarium opened 100 years ago, in Germany. It used the grainy imagery of the time, but elicited gasps nonetheless. Today, planetariums invite viewers to zoom through galaxies, tour clouds of asteroids, view meteors as they approach. And, a new future looms: explorations of tech, biology, even the human body - on domes so large and crystal-clear, they're helping astrophysicists learn about space
