About this listen
In this special episode, we sit down with Rakesh Maheshwari, former Senior Director and GC (Cyber Laws & Data Governance) at MeitY, for a rare peek behind the curtain of digital policy-making in India.
Hosted by Shivangi Malhotra, Senior Associate – Policy & Privacy at DSCI, this episode dives into three core conversations:
🔹 What it’s like working within the government, shaping and navigating digital policies from the inside
🔹 The story of how India’s data protection regulatory framework has evolved over the years
🔹 The uniquely Indian lens on privacy—how our social fabric, cultural contexts, and digital behaviors shape expectations around data and rights.
Whether you’re a policy nerd, privacy professional, or just curious about how India’s digital future is being designed, this one’s a must-listen.
