FDPPI releases a Unified Framework for Compliance of DPDPA 2023

FDPPI releases a Unified Framework for Compliance of DPDPA 2023

Foundation of Data Protection Professionals in India (FDPPI), a primer organization on Data Privacy in India responded to the Government of India passing the much-awaited Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA 2023) with the release of an industry-friendly indigenous compliance framework titled “Data Governance and Protection Standard of India” (DGPSI).

FDPPI recognizes that compliance of DPDPA 2023 is essential for thousands of organizations in India in both business and non-business category including educational institutions, industry and professional associations, etc., and noncompliance could result in heavy monetary penalties. At the same time remaining in compliance would be a concern on many SMEs and MSMEs both for the efforts required and the cost involved.

Presently the industries in such cases depend on frameworks which are expensive to implement and are adapted from foreign sources. Such frameworks are less than optimum and are also expensive.

To alleviate the problem of compliance, FDPPI has brought out a new framework titled DGPSI which is a single unified framework that combines the requirements of DPDPA 2023 and also addresses the requirements of related compliance of Information Technology Act 2000 (ITA 2000) and the Bureau of Indian Standard’s draft standard on Data Governance.

This unique combination will simplify the compliance, increase the standard of compliance in the country, and bring down the cost of compliance substantially. FDPPI has already trained many professionals to conduct both implementations of the standard as well as Certify them under the FDPPI scheme of certification.  This effort will continue in the future.

This DGPSI framework will be an alternative to the current international audit standards such as ISO 27701 and has the potential to make India the leader of the Certification of Data Privacy practice across the world.

The framework authored by Naavi, a pioneer and thought leader in the field of Cyber Jurisprudence and Privacy Jurisprudence has been fine-tuned by a team of FDPPI experts and will continue to be improved as the requirements evolve.

Justice (Retd) K S Puttaswamy honoured

Justice (Retd) K S Puttaswamy honoured

Foundation of Data Protection Professionals in India (FDPPI), a primer organization on Data Privacy in India and Manipal Law School (MLS) of the prestigious Manipal Academy of Higher Education today conferred the title of “Privacy Pitamaha” on Justice (Retd) K S Puttaswamy.

The 98-year crusader is known for initiating a petition on Privacy which has resulted in the country passing a long-awaited law on Data Protection namely the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 on August 11 this year.

Privacy is a respected fundamental right under the Indian Constitution and the demand for a law to protect Privacy was pending for a long time. In 2015, Justice Puttaswamy initiated a petition on the possible Privacy infringement in the Aadhaar usage at the Supreme Court. During the discussions, the 5-member bench felt the necessity for a larger bench and a Nine-member bench was set up to decide on the issue of whether Privacy is a Fundamental Right in India. On 24th August 2017 a judgement which is colloquially referred to as “Puttaswamy Judgement” held that Privacy is a fundamental right under Article 21 of the Constitution.

Following this and three iterations of law in the form of Personal Data Protection Bill (PDPB) in 2018, 2019 and 2021, the Digital Data Protection Act 2023 (DPDPA 2023) was finally gazetted on 11th August 2023.

This brought India on the world Privacy map in the year of G20 presidentship and enhanced the prestige of the country in the international arena.

Recognizing the efforts of Justice Puttaswamy who initiated the petition when he was past 90 years of age, FDPPI and MLS have thought it fit to recognize his services to the Privacy Community with the award of the title “Privacy Pitamaha”.

Sri Puttaswamy in view of his age, received the award at his residence from Dr Avinash

Dadhich, Dean of MLS. Mr Na. Vijayashankar, Chairman of FDPPI addressed the Press Conference explaining the context in which FDPPI initiated this award. Sri Puttaswamy was virtually present in the Press Conference and briefly interacted with the audience.

The Rise of Online Yoga TTC: A New Era in Yoga Education

The Rise of Online Yoga TTC: A New Era in Yoga Education

In recent years, the practice of yoga has grown exponentially in popularity, transcending cultural and geographic boundaries. This surge in interest has been accompanied by a growing demand for qualified yoga instructors. As a result, Yoga Teacher Training Courses (TTC) have become a crucial stepping stone for individuals seeking to deepen their practice and share its benefits with others. Traditionally conducted in physical studios and ashrams, these courses have undergone a remarkable transformation, finding a new home in the digital realm. The rise of online Yoga TTC represents a new era in yoga education, marked by accessibility, convenience, and inclusivity.

Breaking Down Barriers

One of the most significant advantages of online Yoga TTC is its role in breaking down barriers that have traditionally limited access to yoga education. In the past, geographical constraints often prevented aspiring yogis from pursuing their teacher training dreams. With the advent of online platforms like Ayushman Yog, these barriers are rapidly dissolving. Now, individuals from various corners of the globe can embark on their TTC journey with ease. Whether you’re in a bustling city or a remote village, all you need is an internet connection and a passion for yoga.

The Role of Ayushman Yog

Ayushman Yog, among other leading platforms, has played a pivotal role in shaping this new era of yoga education. Their commitment to making quality training with YCB certifications accessible to a wider audience has been nothing short of revolutionary. By offering comprehensive online modules, Ayushman Yog ensures that the ancient wisdom of yoga reaches individuals from diverse backgrounds and walks of life. Their flexible course schedules allow students to balance their studies with work, family, and other commitments, making the dream of becoming a certified yoga teacher a reality for many who might have otherwise been excluded.

Embracing Convenience

In a fast-paced world where time is a precious commodity, online Yoga TTC offers unparalleled convenience. No longer bound by rigid class schedules or the need to commute to a physical location, students can engage in their training at their own pace and on their own terms. This flexibility allows them to absorb the teachings more deeply and integrate them into their daily lives. Ayushman Yog and similar platforms provide a wealth of resources, including video lectures, interactive assignments, and forums for discussions, all accessible 24/7.

Holistic Approach to Yoga Education

Online Yoga TTC is not merely a virtual replication of in-person classes; it’s a holistic approach to yoga education that embraces the interconnectedness of body, mind, and spirit. Ayushman Yog, for example, places a strong emphasis on the holistic well-being of its students. Their curriculum extends beyond physical postures (asanas) to include breath control (pranayama), meditation, philosophy, and a stimulating environment for discussions. This comprehensive approach allows students to dive deep into the transformative power of yoga and emerge as not just skilled instructors but also compassionate practitioners.

Democratization of Yoga Education

The democratization of yoga education is a central theme in this new era. With Ayushman Yog and similar platforms, yoga education is no longer the privilege of a select few. It is now accessible to anyone with a sincere desire to explore this ancient practice. Whether you’re a working professional, a stay-at-home parent, or a retiree, online Yoga TTC opens doors that were previously closed. It empowers individuals to pursue their passion for yoga, share its profound benefits with others, and contribute to the well-being of the global community.

In conclusion, the rise of online Yoga TTC represents a transformative shift in the world of yoga education. Platforms like Ayushman Yog have harnessed the power of technology to make yoga accessible, convenient, and inclusive. They have broken down geographical barriers, embraced a holistic approach to education, and democratized yoga teacher training. As we embrace this new era, the spirit of yoga’s accessibility and inclusivity shines brighter than ever before, inviting all who seek its wisdom and peace to join in the journey of self-discovery and transformation.

Historic Milestone: Women Secure Equal Representation in India’s Future

Historic Milestone: Women Secure Equal Representation in India’s Future

In a historic moment that underscores India’s commitment to gender equality and women’s empowerment, Maneka Gandhi, the veteran parliamentarian and renowned advocate for women’s rights, expressed her pride in witnessing women secure an equal share in shaping India’s future.

In an exclusive interview with our correspondent, Mrs. Gandhi reflected on the significant progress India has made in advancing women’s participation in decision-making processes, marking a pivotal moment in the nation’s history.

Breaking Down the Milestone:

1. Equal Share in India’s Political Landscape: India has long been lauded for its diverse and vibrant democracy, but for decades, women’s representation in political spheres lagged. However, recent electoral reforms and increased awareness of gender parity have led to a seismic shift. Women now hold an equal share of political seats, reflecting a pivotal step toward achieving true gender equity.

2. Women Leaders at the Helm: In her interview, Maneka Gandhi highlighted the outstanding accomplishments of women leaders who have taken charge across various states and sectors. The emergence of prominent female Chief Ministers, Cabinet Ministers, and CEOs has sent a powerful message about women’s capabilities and their potential to drive change.

3. Empowering Women Beyond Politics: Beyond politics, India’s commitment to gender parity extends to various sectors. The corporate world has witnessed a surge in female entrepreneurs and top executives, reshaping the business landscape. Furthermore, women’s participation in science, technology, and innovation has surged, leading to groundbreaking discoveries and innovations.

4. Education and Empowerment Initiatives: Mrs. Gandhi also discussed the critical role of education and empowerment initiatives. India has ramped up efforts to provide quality education and skill development programs to women, ensuring they are well-equipped to contribute to the nation’s growth.

5. The Road Ahead: While celebrating this historic achievement, Maneka Gandhi emphasized that there is still work to be done. She called for continued efforts to eliminate gender-based discrimination, promote equal opportunities, and ensure the safety and well-being of women across India.

Maneka Gandhi’s pride in witnessing women secure an equal share in shaping India’s future is a testament to the nation’s progress in advancing gender equality. As India continues to make strides in this direction, it sends a resounding message to the world about the importance of women’s participation in all facets of society. The journey towards full gender parity is ongoing, but with determined efforts and inspiring leaders like Mrs. Gandhi, India is well on its way to realizing this vision.
