The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has imposed a penalty of Rs 15 lakh on Delhi-based coaching institute Vajirao and Reddy Institute for publishing misleading advertisements claiming credit for candidates who cleared the UPSC Civil Services Examination 2023, many of whom had enrolled only for mock interview sessions.

Additional capacity will be created wherever required to ensure that no PwBD candidate is denied their preferred ...
