Aarogya Setu : Karnataka High Court Reserves Order On Plea To Restrain Authorities From Denying Services For Not Installing App

Live Law  

The Karnataka High Court on Thursday reserved its order in the petition filed by Anivar Aravind who has sought directions to the authorities not to deny any service to citizens for not installing the 'Aarogya Setu' application. Additional Solicitor General appearing for the Central government said the implementation of Aarogya Setu application is supported by law and it is one of the measures adopted for containing Covid-19 in the country, which does not violate the privacy of any individuals. He referred to the statement of objections filed by the government in which it is said that Aarogya Setu application, launched on April 2, is in exercise of powers conferred under the Disaster Management Act, 2005, Epidemic Diseases Act 1897, National Disaster Management Plan and Executive powers. The data collected by the Aarogya Setu application is governed by the Aarogya Setu Data Access and Knowledge sharing protocol which clearly defines what data can be shared with whom and for what purpose." Even on applying 'necessity test' also the Aarogya Setu application is a valid one."
