Data Protection And Privacy Laws: An Indian Perspective

Abstract

In India, a number of measures are being adopted in order to work on the privacy and data protection concerns of the individuals. In this regard, the Data Protection Bills are a noteworthy contribution, which were brought forth post the landmark ruling of 2017 case given by the Supreme Court of India that made the right to privacy a fundamental right of any person. This discussion embarks upon the journey of development of Indian privacy and data protection legislation post this ruling, with a focus on the recent amendments.
