Editors Guild flags DPDP rules for failing to safeguard journalistic work

Business Standard

The Editors Guild of India on Wednesday said the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Rules, notified recently, do not address the concerns around journalistic work falling within the purview of the law.
