National Seminar on Reflection of Privacy Laws in Contemporary Era
Submit by Sept 12
About the Seminar
The
Right to Privacy per say is not a specifically guaranteed fundamental right
under the Constitution of India, however the apex court has time and again
interpreted
it indirectly as a part and parcel of fundamental rights. There have been
instances in various cases decided by the apex court. The right to privacy in
India has come a long way from the decision given in Kharak Singh’s case which
was one of the first instances which incorporated right to privacy with as an
integral part of right to life and personal liberty. Subsequently, this right
has come under the radar of reasonable restrictions under Article 19 (2) and
with the different facets of this right been invoked by a plethora of judgments
including the areas like privacy in communications, freedom of movement,
physical privacy and mental privacy, Unique Identification Number related
privacy, etc., there are still different facets of the right which need to be
established. With the DNA Profiling Bill, again the discussion relating to
right to privacy has come on the forefront. This Seminar is therefore an
attempt to analyse the right to privacy from different perspectives and check
the status of this right.
