ABSTRACT


The Right to be forgotten (RTBF) is an essential aspect of data protection and privacy legislation worldwide. This article examines the development of the RTBF in India, starting from its introduction in Personal Data Protection Bill of 2019 and culminating in its inclusion in the Digital Personal and Data Protection Act of 2023. The study also explores the legal interpretations of this right in India. The text compares the Indian approach, as delineated in the DPDP Act of 2023, with GDPR and emphasizes subtle distinctions. This paper adds to the current discussion on data protection and privacy, providing insight into the intricacies and potential advantages of the RTBF within Indi’s evolving data protection landscape.
