These words by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the recent United Nations Summit of the Future reflect India's vision of putting people first.
This philosophy has guided our efforts in shaping the Draft Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Rules, 2025. The rules, after being finalized, would operationalize the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, bringing to life our commitment to safeguarding citizens' right to personal data protection.
A new era of empowerment: The Indian citizen is at the heart of the DPDP Rules, 2025. In a world increasingly dominated by data, we believe it is imperative to place individuals at the heart of the governance framework. These rules empower citizens with rights such as informed consent, data erasure, and the ability to appoint digital nominees. Citizens will no longer feel helpless in the face of breaches or unauthorized data usage. They will have tools to protect and manage their digital identities effectively.
The rules are designed with simplicity and clarity, ensuring that every Indian, regardless of their technical knowhow, can understand and exercise their rights.
From ensuring that consent is sought in clear terms to mandating that information be provided to the citizens in English or any of the 22 Indian languages listed in the Constitution, the framework reflects our commitment to inclusivity.
