No. 136 Chapter 69 Gor
Government Gazette
27 May 2019
Remarks :- The reason for the enactment of this Act is that there are and have been many cases
of violations of the right to the privacy protection of personal data resulting in the nuisance to
or damages to data subjects. In addition, technological developments have increased the ease,
convenience, and swiftness of the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data that are done
in a manner constituting such violations, which also causes the damage to the economy overall.
Therefore, it is appropriate to have a law governing personal data protection in general in order
to prescribe rules, mechanisms, or measures regulating personal data protection as a matter of
general principles, and thus the Act is necessary to be enacted.
