Right of Privacy: The Lacuna in Pakistan and Indian legal Framework
Abstract
Right of Privacy is a tricky thing to handle especially at international level as its meaning varies from one jurisdiction to the other. Though the right of privacy is considered as a fundamental right but it cannot be recognized as absolute one. The cultural, religious, constitutional and historical perspectives play significant role in shaping its boundaries. The right of Privacy is the basic block of an ordered and decent society. Surveillance and censorship are to be tolerated only when they are strictly according to the law and the legitimate aim proportionate the damage of the sanctity of the privacy. In this research, researchers aim to provide a summarized version of issues and events relating to privacy in India and Pakistan. Moreover it is an intense study to explore the state of the right of privacy in countries, the measures taken so far and the loopholes.
