Very shocking:

Personal data of over 3.3 million Indian users of DigiYatra app is now owned by a private company facing an ED case

There has been an important exposé about the DigiYatra app by @TheKenWeb & several other Twitter users.

These are the shocking details that have emerged:

👉 Suddenly, last month, the DigiYatra app stopped working & users were asked to download an entirely new app (instead of an update)

👉 Turns out that DigiYatra was being operated by a private company called Dataevolve since 2021

👉 The ED booked the CEO of Dataevolve last year in a money laundering case. Now, it seems that the company was engaged in the alleged offense WHILE it handled the DigiYatra app

👉 The DigiYatra app was NOT running on the infrastructure of DigiYatra Foundation but, instead, was being run by the private company Dataevolve. This is a CLEAR VIOLATION of all data security & protection rules.

👉 Therefore, to remove Dataevolve from the DigiYatra infrastructure, a new app was launched last month instead of just releasing the update

Here's the MOST IMPORTANT POINT:

The DigiYatra data of over 3.3 million Indian users is now owned by the tainted private company Dataevolve

The Modi Govt literally forced lakhs of people to sign up for DigiYatra app at airports.

Even after Minister @JM_Scindia assured me in a letter that DigiYatra enrollment would not be done without taking consent, passengers at airports were being forced to enroll for DigiYatra by "private volunteers".

I urge @DGCAIndia & @JM_Scindia ji to IMMEDIATELY issue a statement informing all Indians about:

- How much data of users has gone to the private taintd company Dataevolve which was running DigiYatra?

- Why was DigiYatra being run by a private company on their infrastructure and not by the Govt?

- Why was the old DigiYatra app suddenly scrapped last month and why are users being asked to download an entirely new app?

This pertains to the security of highly sensitive data of over 3.3 million Indians & the Modi Govt MUST CLARIFY IMMEDIATELY.

Huge thank you to all our partners for today's India workshop on bringing the #CHS closer to the people we serve.

In a rapidly changing #humanitarian landscape, the importance of an #accountability standard that delivers what crisis-affected communities need is vital.

Should such reputable companies be financing hate through ads on RepulsiveTV?: Raymonds, MuthootGroup, Jio, MaxBupa, Kent, AirIndia, Star Health Insurance, Nissan, Dabur, Mahindra, Amazon, Samsung, Sony, Maruti, Nerolac, Toyota. Can they find the moral courage to be like Parle?
