1:05 pm
fueling be they are nuclear ballistic or regional issues and. not india where the supreme court has upheld the legality of the government's biometric data. but it has imposed new restrictions on how the purse the details of more than one billion citizens can be used the court. launches biometric database beneficial welfare schemes but in response to fears of a surveillance state it decided the program cannot be compulsory for opening a bank account establishing a mobile phone connection or for involving a child in school. for more on this i'm joined by the correspondent in delhi i saw an end of the supreme court has upheld the use of the other but has restricted its use what has been the reaction to the verdict there. well the reactions they have been mixed and some activists are disappointed the supreme court to stick in
1:06 pm
a rather safe stand while others have really welcomed this verdict is fairly balanced and measured now the supreme court as you said has has ruled today that private entities including mobile phone operators and private banks no longer have the authority to demand data from their customers and i think this is usually relevant given that over a billion indians are already enjoyed in the scheme and right now this twelve digit number is absolutely compulsory to carry out even the smallest ones actually so whether it's opening on maintaining a bank account whether it's using mobile phone so this is applying for a possible out and going to your child at school you do need this and this judgement today because all of that into question the century and sort of there have been huge concerns about data privacy and security to guarding this. tell us more as to why this was the case. that's right on the time you know over the last few years critics say i've really been warning that the hard scheme could be used as an instrument of maslow violence there were fears it could be useful profiling
1:07 pm
and i think the biggest concern is good really has been the use misuse of and frankly those those fields have not been unfounded you know over the last year as we've seen the number of data be explore example there was an indian newspaper of the c.e.o. that claimed that it had found a way to buy under strict access to the details of any other number of for less than five hundred rupees from a group operating on whatsapp so there are real concerns about data privacy and security and neither of which we have to remember you know they currently is no privacy law for it in and today i think the supreme court did point out that the indian government really does need to bring out a robust what it calls a robust data protection law so i think that is an cottaging use for activists. in delhi thank you very much for that update. now let's take a look at some other stories making news around the world japan's prime minister shinzo r.b.a. has told the u.n. general assembly he's willing to meet north korean leader kim jong un they said any

it will be a close and trusting cooperation process of how in recent years. before the vote anglo-american had urged the conservative m.p.'s to support her like her candidate was all. so backed by leaders of the conservative but very insistent party the c.s.u. but to no avail the majority wanted to change afterwards the newly elected leader stressed that he didn't see the result as a vote against anglo american but the german chancellor acknowledged the outcome is a defeat. this is democracy and that means sometimes you lose a vote there is nothing to gloss over but i want the parliamentary group of c.d.u. and c.s.u. to be successful and therefore i will support us where of a possible to help the conduct all opposition parties declared cowardice defeat a clear sign that marcos time as chancellor is coming to an end does cyc this shows that mrs merkel can no longer rely on the support of her own group so i recommend
