India's Right to Repair Framework: Empowering Consumers

India is working on a 'Right to Repair' initiative, allowing consumers to easily repair products instead of buying new ones.

A new Repairability Index will show how easy it is to fix items like phones and appliances.

This aims to reduce waste, boost small repair shops, and encourage a circular economy where products are reused.

The success of the initiative will rely on manufacturers providing repair information and making it easy for consumers.

The government will also play a role in publicizing the initiative.
