State of Uttar Pradesh, but that the Supreme Court argued that article 21 incidentally guarantees the right to privacy.which is “ no person shall be deprived of personal life and liberty . This is a constitutional judgement. The Puttaswamy judgement have completely changed the government changed the view of the government how the government used to look its citizen Privacy. The judgement somewhere demands that the government should demonstrate a lot of care while demanding the citizens personal demographic

After the Puttoswamy Ruling, the government formed a commission of experts for data protection, led by Justice B N Srikrishna, who released the committee's report in July 2018 along with a proposed Data Protection Bill.

Conclusion

   The Putoswmay Judgment has already led in the area of privacy expanding. The privacy has been seen as a counter-posing of the privacy right to the world at large since the Puttoswamy verdict. However, with the rapid growth of technology, the privacy protection from non-state actors has grown tragically insufficient. the current legislation, as those described in the Adequate for Data communication Technology Act or Information Technology Act

Security dilaects  and Practices, as well as Personal Identifiable Data or Personal Data or Information Rules 2011, have significantly fallen short of protecting privacy. Embracing the revolution in Data privacy laws in India are not in a good position due to the substantial financial consideration that has been tied to technology. In some contexts, privacy has a mystical quality with a financial perspective. The hourly requirement is being pushed for enforcement. The state should fully fulfill its commitment to legislate the long-delayed personal data protection bill 2019 while also broadening its approach. Currently, The country is trying to operate in a legislative void in which we are only supported by presumptions and haven't passed any legislation specific legislation introducing a more refined concept of privacy. The committee of experts on the governance framework for non-personal data recently released its findings, which demanded that separate legislation be approved or created to control non-personal data through a new regular authority. The government's actions must have noticeable impacts, but their efforts must also be successful. As we enter our third year of observation, the fundamental right to privacy shouldn't simply be a side note; it should also affect us on a daily basis. The Information Technology Act of 2008 is a law that is already in effect to safeguard privacy because there is a violation of privacy under section 66E. As a result, the cyber law also serves the purpose of the right to privacy.
