Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Thursday said the Supreme Court verdict on 'fundamental Right to privacy’ heralds a new era for individual rights and human dignity and strikes a blow on “unbridled encroachment and surveillance” by the state and its agencies in the common man’s life.
In a statement, she said the Congress and its governments, along with other Opposition parties, stood together in court and in Parliament in speaking out for the right and against, what she called, the “arrogant attempts” of the Centre to curtail them.
