NAVIGATING THE PERSONAL DATA CONTOURS UNDER THE DIGITAL PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION ACT 2023 Amri Gupta, Student at ICFAI Law School, IFHE, Hyderabad. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, is a pivotal legislation in India’s digital governance landscape, aiming to address the growing need for robust data protection laws in the digital era. It defines and regulates personal data, introducing key entities like Data Fiduciary and Significant Data Fiduciary, along with strict obligations and penalties for non-compliance. However, the Act’s impact is not without challenges, particularly in its potential conflicts with the Right to Information Act, 2005. Amendments to the RTI Act’s Section 8(1)(j), expanding non-disclosure of personal data-related information, raise questions about the balance between data protection and the fundamental right to information. The role of the Data Protection Board emerges as crucial, tasked with providing clarity and guidance on the Act’s implementation. This article underscores the importance of striking a balance between data protection and the right to information, calling for nuanced approaches that safeguard privacy while ensuring transparency and accountability. It examines the Act’s provisions and highlights challenges, emphasizing the vital role of the Data Protection Board in providing much-needed clarity. The analysis stresses the need for clear guidelines and robust regulatory oversight to ensure the Act’s effective implementation. While the DPDP Act 2023 is a significant stride in data governance, the importance of well-defined guidelines becomes evident as India adapts to the intricacies of the digital age.

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT

Volume I Issue III /

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT Govind Dhir, 4th year Student at TNNLU. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT In recent years, India has made progress in LGBTQIA+ rights, notably by legalizing consensual same-sex relationships in 2018 through the Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India[1] ruling, which struck down Section 377 of the IPC. However, the article argues that more steps are needed to fully eliminate discrimination against same-sex couples. While the criminalization of homosexuality has been lifted, legal recognition for their relationships is still lacking. India’s existing marriage laws only recognize unions between heterosexual couples, leaving same-sex couples without benefits and legal acknowledgment. The article underscores the need for legal recognition of same-sex marriage in India to ensure full LGBTQIA+ equality and dignity, emphasizing the importance of societal acceptance and constitutional principles like Article 14. The article explores strategies for achieving legal recognition, including the adoption of ‘civil union’ as seen in other countries. Changing personal laws to recognize these unions may face opposition based on religious beliefs, making amendments to the Special Marriage Act of 1954 or introducing a new law governing the civil rights of same-sex couples more practical options. Activists and organizations continue to advocate for the legalization of same-sex marriage through legal challenges. Legalizing same-sex marriage is seen as a transformative step towards justice and inclusivity.

A SPOTLIGHT ON UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES PREVENTION ACT, 2019 Bhavana Sree Sagili, Student at Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The Unlawful activities prevention act, 2019 (hereupon referred to as UAPA,2019) is an amendment to the law UAPA,1967. It gives authority to name an individual as a terrorist without due process of law. It is also known as Anti-terror law. Anyone who commits, participates, prepares, promotes, or is otherwise involved in terrorism shall be called a terrorist, and a rigorous punishment is sentenced. Moreover, it is called a draconian law by many critics, even though the main purpose of the law is to control terrorist activities, it has widely been misused by political authorities for their whims and wishes and used to suppress criticism against them. The overview of this project provides a vivid view of this law. Initially, the historical background of this law, i.e., UAPA, 1967 is presented to provide the actual inference of the framers to draft this law. Although the UAPA is in force since 1967, the legislation decided to amend it in 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2019. In a further attempt, the amendments to the law and its changed provisions are projected, and the cause and consequences of the amended laws will be discussed. Later, a precise summary of similar laws related to terrorism and anti-terror are added, and some popular cases will be presented to support the hypothesis of the study. The paper further encompasses the essential features of the amendment of 2019 and the elements that have given rise to amending UAPA, 2019. The major concerns and critics’ condemning aspects will be analyzed by supporting them with relevant data, reports, and cases. At the end of the project, some suggested amendments to the law will be given, for better implementation of the law without being misused by the political authorities.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE Subramanyan H,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Shivamm Kansal,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a concept that has been in the spotlight ever since the day when Sophia, the first ever globally recognized robot citizen of Saudi Arabia mentioned taking over the world during a programme in April, 2017. Recently it rose to prominence when Elon Musk remarked about AI taking over the world in the coming years. AI notions are undoubtedly alien to the majority of us in today’s society but it can be understood briefly as the process by which it is possible to programme computers to imitate human intellect. Sir Stephen Hawkings once remarked that “it seems probable that once the machine thinking method had started, it would not take long to outstrip our feeble powers. They would be able to converse with each other to sharpen their wits. At some stage, therefore, we should have to expect the machines to take control.” Some believe AI to be extremely helpful since they can relieve the humans from tedious and harmful jobs while others believe that they will take over the human role hence creating lack of jobs resulting in poverty, deaths and other unwarranted causes. Thus, it is crucial to comprehend artificial intelligence (AI), their impact on human existence and how the Constitution of India could be read in the near future in order to incorporate AI. The objective of this Article is also focused on persuading the reader to comprehend the likelihood of robots having “rights” within the next 40 to 50 years.
