Explanationव्याख्या

All five statements are correct according to the source.
National Consumer Day is observed annually on 24 December to highlight consumer rights and the importance of effective consumer protection.
The date commemorates the anniversary of the President's assent to the Consumer Protection Act, 1986.
For 2025, the theme given in the source is 'Efficient and Speedy Disposal through Digital Justice'.
This theme emphasises technology-enabled grievance redressal that can improve accessibility, transparency and speed in resolving consumer disputes.
The source explains that the day also promotes responsible consumer behaviour and encourages institutions to adopt modern, citizen-centric practices.
It further notes that the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which became effective from July 2020, replaced the earlier 1986 law with a framework better suited to digital markets and evolving consumer challenges.
Important rights under the Act include the right to be informed, protected, heard and to seek redressal.
The source also provides the three-tier consumer dispute resolution mechanism: District Commissions, State Commissions and the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, abbreviated NCDRC.
A noteworthy current-affairs point is that in July 2025, ten states along with the NCDRC achieved disposal rates exceeding 100 percent.
Static associations include the Consumer Protection Act, 2019; the NCDRC as the national body; and the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution.
For revision: National Consumer Day → 24 December → 1986 Act assent anniversary → 2025 theme Digital Justice → 2019 Act effective July 2020 → District
State
NCDRC three-tier system.
Hence all five statements are correct and option D is the answer.
