India scraps data protection law in favor of better law coming … sometime
However, just because critics had concerns about the bill, it did not mean they wanted it totally scrapped.It has been close to ten years since the government constituted A.P. Shah Committee report on privacy, five years since the Puttaswamy Judgement and four years since another government constituted Srikrishna Committee report – they all signal urgency for a data protection law and surveillance reforms.
Each day lost causes more injury and harm. Hence the withdrawal of the Data Protection Bill, 2019 is concerning – for a belated, deficient regulation is being junked. Gupta added that he was disappointed the ministerial statements on withdrawal, both in parliament and public, avoid any commitment to timelines for development of a new law.
"The statement notes work on a 'comprehensive legal framework'. This is attributed to the JPC report on the Data Protection Bill, 2019. This is incorrect as the remit of the JPC was limited to the Data Protection Bill, for which it did not recommend a withdrawal," said Gupta.
