A consumer organisation with a difference.  Instead of rendering advisory services alone, the Council since its inception, in 1985, has been taking up issues affecting them through the consumer courts and other means and feels proud to have provided relief to crores of people.  These include:

• Remedial action against short-filling of LPG in cooking gas refills; (Ministry of Petroleum has committed before the NCDRC that the LPG bottling plants would be modernised by 2010, benefitting the entire country.)
• Obtained a separate District Forum for Rourkela, though it is not the district headquarters, which otherwise necessitated the entire Rourkela population to approach the Forum, situated at Sundargarh, a place 100 km away;
• Re-routing of Dhanbad-Alleppey Express train through Chennai Central;
• Better upkeep of the railway coaches of Utkal Kalinga Express and other trains;
• Refunding of booking advance by M/s APSL and M/s LML; and many more. 

     The fifth Voluntary Consumer Organisation in the country to have set up a Consumer Information Centre, with the support of Ministry of Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution, Govt. of India. Has earned a niche for creating consumer awareness and handling of individual as well as group/class grievances. It is bringing out an English monthly Advantage Consumer, to educate the consumers. It is represented in various Advisory bodies.

An Aware Consumer is an Asset to the Nation

     Through this site effort will be made to disseminate all relevant information and answers to many of the queries which are frequently asked. Knowledge is power and ignorance is the root cause of all exploitation. As a consumer, we hope you will find the site quite useful. Since ours is a voluntary organisation with meagre resources we have designed the site on our own and are sure there will be lot of scope to improve. As such we invite the public and the visitors to this site to communicate their valuable feedback, so that we may improve the contents of this site. - Secretary, CPC, Rourkela.
