The promotion and protection of consumer rights is essential for every citizen. It is
considered as a ‘right to life’ which is a fundamental right. Apart from the Constitutional
provisions, Bangladesh also has a few specific consumer protection legislations which are
'scanty,' scattered over a whole range of enactments and are 'only indirectly related to the
protection of consumer interests' except the Consumer Rights Protection Act, 2009. This
study aims at finding out the loopholes of the existing laws of Bangladesh on consumer rights
and to give proper suggestions thereof. The working of the various consumer rights related
institutions of Bangladesh are evaluated in this article with a positive approach to improve
their quality and capacity to ensure consumer rights. The distinctive legal terminologies are
carefully adduced and interpreted to understand the linkage among various stakeholders such
as producer, distributor, supplier, seller, consumer etc. This article shall give a
comprehensive idea on the protection mechanisms of consumer rights in Bangladesh.
