Experts pick holes in data protection Bill

The Hindu  

While the draft Bill for protection of personal data of Indian citizens has been welcomed as a positive start, it is not without loopholes, according to various stakeholders who have called for an in-depth consultative process before the Bill becomes a law. Srikrishna, on Friday, submitted its report on data protection as well as the draft ‘The Personal Data Protection Bill, 2018’ after a year-long consultation process. “India’s data protection law will shape the relationship between users and the companies and government entities they entrust with their data,” said Mitchell Baker, Chairwoman of Mozilla – the company behind Firefox browsers. “Service providers in India process financial, healthcare and other data of citizens globally…mandating localization of all personal data…is likely to become a trade barrier in the key markets,” it said. Likewise, another committee member Prof. Rishikesha T. Krishnan, director, IIM, Indore, in his dissent note has said, “The requirement that every data fiduciary should store one live, serving copy of personal data in India is against the basic philosophy of the Internet and imposes additional costs on data fiduciaries without a proportional benefit in advancing the cause of data protection.” The draft law has proposed that critical personal data of Indian citizens be processed only in data centre located within the country, personal data may be transferred outside India.
