RIGHT TO REPAIR IS A CHILD OF THE 21ST CENTURY: A CRITICAL STUDY

Abstract

The Right to Repair movement aims to empower consumers to repair and modify their products by requiring manufacturers to provide access to repair manuals, diagnostic tools, and replacement parts. In India, the lack of clear regulations around the right to repair has left consumers with limited options for repairing their electronic devices, appliances, and vehicles. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the Right to Repair movement and the need for legislative action in India to protect the right to repair as a consumer right.
