Amit Shah says SC verdict strengthens personal liberty
New Delhi, Aug 24 (IANS) BJP President Amit Shah on Thursday welcomed Supreme Court judgment on right to privacy saying it “strengthens the fundamental rights and personal liberty.”
In a blogpost, Shah said the BJP-led government is committed to ensuring equitable social delivery, particularly to the poor in consonance with the judgment, but attacked the Congress for its “mischievous propaganda”.
“While today’s judgment is an important one, which also is in accordance with the government’s vision and actions, some mischievous propaganda needs to be busted. Those waxing eloquent today on privacy architecture are the ones who have ensured India does not have a robust privacy law for decades. Those commenting on Aadhar are the same people who did not provide it a legal backing for years.
“It is strange that those who snatched away the right to life and right to liberty of millions of Indians by imposing Emergency are standing today as guardians of our fundamental rights based on misinterpretation of the judgment,” he said.
Shah noted that the judgment supports the point that right of privacy is not absolute and is subject to some restrictions, which “was in consonance with the government stand”.

The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
