Infosys co-founder and former Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) chairman Nandan Nilekani has said that the NDA government’s Aadhaar Bill is probably the most stringent law on privacy till date in India.
Speaking to Indian Express, Nilekani said that NDA government’s Aadhaar Bill has enough safeguards.
“In fact, this (the Bill on privacy) is stronger than the original Bill. The Bill has very robust privacy protection beyond what any other legislation has ever provided in India. It is as good as it gets,” he told the daily. He also called it a “big leap forward in the quality of legislation India has seen”.
