Re: [MTC Global] Supreme Court rules privacy a fundamental right in blow to government

The reasoning and expression power of stalwarts in India has been deteriorating  day in and day out to such an extent that even the ordinary/common man feels ashamed.

Is there any common thread among such happenings that have been taking place in India since 2014 or so?  like:
  1. Anna Hazare movement.
  2. Ramdeo Baba movement.
  3. Kejariwal movement.
  4. Jat agitation.
  5. JNU episode.
  6. Escalating  terrorism in Kashmir.
  7. Stone pelting and schools burning in Kashmir.
  8. Marataha agitation.
  9. Isharat Jahan story
  10. .China moves on borders.
  11. Purohit and Samazuta Exppress,
  12. Money laundering in Kashmir.
  13. Recent disclosures of Subhash Chandra Bose and others.
  14. Ban on Durga pooja visarjan in W Bengal.
  15. SC recent verdicts: Triple Talaaq and Privacy (not defined) as a fundamental right but not absolute.
  16. Recent two deadly railway accidents.
  17. Malya Case.
  18. Ram-Rahim Suchcha Dera Baba Panchkula episode.
Perhaps the history is repeating.

I absolutely agree with Prof. Virendra Goel ji. One should refrain from making a political comment on a neutral platform like this and offer only critical comment either agreeing to or disagreeing to the judgement. Even the SC has made it clear that this fundamental right is not an absolute right and the legislature has the powers to legislate on it where the interests of the state or country are not infringed upon

An overconfident Government at the center who always used to have its way has for a change received a tight slap on its face. A unanimous judgement by all 9 member jury and this came after taking inputs from several social forums which collected views from people spread all across the country. Government intended to snoop around the private rights of people to restrain and throttle any diffidence or dissidence which may put them on the back foot. Having won over the media and with many media houses portraying the success of the government and sweeping its shortcomings under the carpet, a wrong picture was being portrayed. Escalating costs, increasing number of unemployment, rising crime-graph, inefficient administration....growing differences among the masses segregated on caste and religious grounds...unfortunately even the educated masses went with the flow blinded by the charisma and false promises. History has many examples where a divided country was routed and conquered yet we fail to take lessons from the past and continue to agree to differentiate. The Law ministry's press conference would no doubt be another campaign to coerce the judiciary or paint a picture that their stand is vindicated.

NEW DELHI/MUMBAI (Reuters) - India's Supreme Court unanimously ruled on Thursday that individual privacy is a fundamental right, a verdict that will impact everything from the way companies handle personal data to the roll-out of the world's largest biometric ID card programme.

A nine-member bench of the top court announced the ruling in a major setback for the Narendra Modi-led government, which argued that privacy was not a fundamental right protected by the constitution.

The court ordered that two earlier rulings by large benches that said privacy was not fundamental in 1954 and 1962 now stood overruled, and it declared privacy was "an intrinsic part of the right to life and liberty" and "part of the freedoms guaranteed" by the constitution.

"This is a blow to the government because the government had argued that people don't have a right to privacy," said Prashant Bhushan, a senior lawyer involved in the case.

India's law ministry was not reachable for comment, but the Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad is expected to weigh in on the ruling at a news conference late on Thursday.join_mtc@googlegroups.com and write the heading as 'Unsubscribe'. Immediate action will be taken.
