The Consumer Protection Act enacted in a unique and highly progressive piece of social welfare legislation can only give certain rights to the consumers, but its functioning and implementation largely depends on the awareness and efforts of the consumers themselves. The problem is more acute in the rural areas. To reach the rural consumers, it is crucial to involve the Panchayati Raj institutions in not only educating consumers but also ensuring that fake and spurious products are not promoted in the rural markets. The study aims to the rural people in aspects of creating consumer awareness and also aims to contribution towards consumer protection in Panchayati Raj institutions in Tamil Nadu. The interview schedules were prepared and collected for Panchayati Raj institutions. Rural people of selected sample of 66 villages from five districts were approached and finally 319 respondents were used for analysis. The study reveals that Panchayati Raj institutions in Tamil Nadu have been taken for minimum efforts taking by the rural consumer awareness and need to address the concerns of the rural consumers and the only way to forward is to involve the available constitutional mechanism of Panchayati Raj institutions.Keywords

The objective of the study is to examine whether there is a relationship between the firm characteristics and internal corporate governance practices of companies listed in BSE between 2006 and 2015. The study has undertaken 16 major manufacturing sectors covering a total of 357 firms. The Literature has constructed the measures of the ICG Index such as the composition of board composition, board activity, audit committee, and ownership structure. The study has collected the relevant information obtained from the respective firm’s annual reports and CMIE-Prowess through the content analysis technique. A panel data method of analysis is conducted while evaluation necessary diagnostics tests are made wherever necessary. The result found a positive association between firm size and profitability whereas leverage and growth in sales are inversely associated with internal corporate governance practices. The study’s results have important implications for policymakers, investors, regulatory authorities and academic perspectives, especially those in India and developing countries across the globe.Keywords
