The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology has approved the revised draft of the Information Protection Act. Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnav gave this information on Thursday. Bureaucrat-turned-politician Ashwini Vaishnav informed that a copy of the amended Bill on Protection of Information was shared with the committee.
The amendment of the bill got approval

Earlier, Ashwini Vaishnav had said that the government has taken several policy reforms, which have made India a leading manufacturer of telecom equipment, research and development, and 5G rollout. In such a situation, global companies are keen to invest in the country's telecom sector.
Talking about the proposed Telecom Bill, he expressed hope that it would be passed in the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament. He had said that it would bring in the necessary momentum in policy reforms, licensing mechanisms, and regulatory aspects of the telecom sector.
