As we are discussing PDPB 2019 as the Data Protection legislation of India today, it becomes necessary that we remember that this is the new incarnation of an earlier Bill called “Personal Data Protection Bill 2006” which was introduced in the Indian Paliament along with the ITA 2000 amendment bill of 2006 which became the ITA amendment act 2008 and got passed in December 2008. The PDPB 2006 however lapsed and was forgotten

But for those of us interested in studying the legislative history of Indian legislation on Data Protection, it is important to recognize the PDPB 2006 as the past Janma of PDPB 2019.

A complete discussion of this Bill was held by Naavi under the aegis of Digital Society of India way bac on 17th October 2008 as part of the Digital Society Day celebrations. It was hosted by KLE Law College and supported by KILPAR. Some of the photographs of the event are interesting.

Mr Suresh Kumar, the then Law Minister of Karnataka inaugurated a seminar on Privacy on October 17, 2008 at KLE Law College, Bangalore, seen here with Naavi

Complete details of the event are available  available here .

A Copy of the Personal Data Protection Bill 2006 presented in the Parliament at that time is available here and is worth looking into when analyzing the legislative history of PDPB 2019.

When the Indian Data Protection Summit 2021 (IDPS 2021) discusses the Past, Present and Future of Privacy Law in India, it is necessary to remember this 2006 version of the Bill which faded into oblivion.

Naavi

Naavi, the Chairman of FDPPI had earlier undertaken  “Karnataka Cyber Law Awareness Movement” in 2005 during which long certification courses were conducted across Karnataka in Bangalore, Mysore, Hubli and Mangalore under the umbrella of Cyber Law College.

In a new comprehensive outreach program, Naavi is now scheduling an “Indian National Privacy Awareness  Movement” (INPAM) starting from the Vijayadashami day on 15th October 2021.

The INPAM would be a free program aimed at ordinary citizens and students to make them aware of the concept of “Privacy”, “Data Protection” and the “PDPB 2019”.

A Feedback from a participant of the previous program:

What was unique about this training and certification was the depth of coverage. With Naavi Sir being an expert in ITA 2000/08, he was able to bring in the required relevance and he was able to quote on specific cases and how ITA 2000/08 by itself includes data privacy requirements. His references to the HC judgements on matters of Personal Data Protection emphasized the importance. The content and teaching were well rounded and inclusive of surrounding aspects that perhaps one cannot expect in more mundane training programmes. The content presented by Ramesh Sir was very very elaborate on GDPR and all encompassing …. the discussions and points made by Naavi Sir while clarifying our doubts were themselves like a separate training session with valuable insights conveyed which he had gathered over the years …. overall it was a very enriching imparting of knowledge….

PRESS RELEASE

FDPPI Proposes a New Data Privacy Compliance Framework

Foundation of Data Protection Professionals in India (FDPPI) is organizing a free webinar on 19^th September 2021, to build awareness on a unique Data Protection Compliance framework that can help the data processing industry in India to meet the Data Privacy obligations under the current Data Protection regulations applicable to Indian establishments.

The framework called “Personal Data Protection Standard of India” (PDPSI) is a unified framework that can assist a company to be compliant with the data protection requirements under Information Technology Act 2000, the proposed Personal Data Protection Bill 2019 (PDPB 2019) as well as GDPR and other international data protection regulations that may be applicable to Indian establishments.

PDPSI is a revolutionary concept “Made in India for the World” and incorporates several innovative futuristic ideas such as computation of “Data Trust Score” (DTS) and incorporating Data Valuation System in corporate Governance.

FDPPI has already developed a team of trained Auditors and Consultants and also created a group of Certification bodies which can undertake Consultancy and Audit based on the PDPSI framework and certify them for the Management.

When the PDPB 2019 is passed, the Government of India will set up a Data Protection Authority which will introduce codes of practice for industries to follow. PDPSI is an advance proactive initiative from the industry professionals to develop a system of compliance in tune with the global standards and flexible enough to meet the emerging requirements of PDPB 2019 when passed.

The webinar will be conducted by Naavi, the veteran Data Protection and Governance consultant, founder of www.naavi.org and Founder Chairman of FDPPI . During the webinar, Naavi will introduce the Standard and its implementation specifications with comparison of similar frameworks available from other agencies.

The webinar is sponsored by FDPPI for the benefit of Data Protection professionals in India to spread awareness of this framework. Registration would be free. The webinar would be conducted on September 19, 2021 (Sunday) from 11.00 am to 1.00 pm. Entry by registration at  www.fdppi.in or through e-mail fdppi@fdppi.in
