This is the updated version of my previous article
titled national
digital preservation policy of India. Digital
contents issues in India have not received the attention
of Indian government for long. The fields of digital contents
creation and management as well as digital preservation in India have
effectively remained untouched.
The DP initiatives are facing many road blocks that
are preventing them from materialising in India. For instance,
Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) are occasionally found on the
crossroads of DP initiatives. The IPRs
Issues in the digital era are also closely related to the
requirements of DP in India.
There is no Regulatory Framework for Digital
Preservation in India and it is managed by Administrative Side of
Indian government, informs Praveen Dalal, managing partner of New
Delhi based IP and ICT Law Firm Perry4Law
and leading techno legal expert of India. Even the Information
Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act, 2000) is not sufficient to accommodate
the issues of Digital Preservation, Digital Curation, etc and we need
a dedicated Digital Preservation Legal Framework in India, suggests
Dalal.
