Data bill among 21 key legislations on agenda

MONSOON SESSION

The Digital Personal Data Protection Bill 2023 aims to provide for "the processing of digital personal data in a manner that recognises both the right of individuals to protect their personal data and the need to process personal data for lawful purposes."

"The bill employs plain and simple language to facilitate ease of understanding. The bill aims to establish the comprehensive legal framework governing digital personal data protection in India," said a government circular.

The personal data protection comes after the previous iteration of the bill was shelved by the government last year.
