GoI to launch National Data Governance Policy
  • The policy was announced in the Union Budget 2023 presentation by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman.
  • The policy will create an Indian Data Management Office (IDMO) under the IT Ministry, which will focus on increasing access to anonymised data safely and securely.
  • The main objective of the policy is to make data secure and available to startups in India, and is considered a first step towards a digital government.
  • The policy aims to increase the availability of essential data, improve data privacy and protection standards, and enhance the public's participation in data governance.
  • Anonymised data is sensitive data that has been stripped of personally identifiable information to increase security. For example, in the case of AADHAR, a citizen's name, date of birth, and address can be made available only to the concerned party after being anonymised to prevent hackers from accessing sensitive information.
