On 27th July 2018, the Justice Srikrishna Committee submitted its report on Data Protection Law in India along with a copy of the proposed bill for a new “Personal Data Protection Act 2018”.
The Bill had been presented in the Parliament in 2018 but lapsed due to the dissolution of the parliament on its completion of term. In the meantime public comments were collected and discussions were held with the stake holders.
Now on 11th December 2019, a new version of the bill has been presented in the Parliament.
