Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023
India has been exploring the possibility of enacting a unified legislation pertaining to data privacy and protection. The draft of such a proposed law was first introduced in the Lok Sabha in 2019. However, after various recommendations, the Bill was subsequently withdrawn in 2022. A new draft titled ‘Digital Personal Data Protection Bill’ was then introduced in November 2022 (“2022 Bill”), and a further revised version of the Bill (“2023 Bill”), has been tabled before the Lok Sabha on 3rd August 2023.
