SNLC LEGAL ESSAY WRITING COMPETITION, 2015
Right to privacy is one of the most cherished of all fundamental rights. However overawing
development in the field of IT has led to an apprehension of invasion of privacy. Recent
developments as to large scale snooping by the Government of all information and telecommunications makes these apprehensions well founded. Information and communication
technologies have deeply delved into every aspect of human life. Some of these technologies
are deeply intrusive having implications on privacy. This necessitates a critical review of the
right to privacy in the dawn of Information and Communication Technology.
