    Question

    Which entity is responsible for enforcing compliance

    under the Act?
    A Reserve Bank of India Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Data Protection Board of India Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C SEBI Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D National Human Rights Commission Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E IT Ministry Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Explanation: The Act establishes the Data Protection Board of India (DPB) as the primary  enforcement authority. The Board is empowered to inquire into breaches, impose penalties, and ensure compliance with the provisions of the Act. Unlike regulators like RBI or SEBI, the DPB has a specific mandate focused on personal data protection. Its role is quasi-judicial, ensuring fair adjudication of complaints while safeguarding the rights of data principals and holding data fiduciaries accountable.
