ASSIGNMENT-2
Submission Date: 30.09.2025
1. Explain whether the Copyright Act has evolved effectively to address challenges
posed by digital content, computer software, and emerging technologies. What
amendments or reforms have been made or are still needed to ensure their relevance
in the digital age?
2. Analyze how Indian legislation formally recognizes Alternative Dispute Resolution
(ADR) mechanisms. Identify and evaluate the key statutory provisions that support
ADR within the legal framework, particularly under the Civil Procedure Code and the
Arbitration and Conciliation Act.
3. Analyze the scope of the right of private defence as provided under Section 97 of the
Indian Penal Code. To what extent does this provision allow an individual to protect
their body and property, and how does the law balance personal safety with potential
misuse of force?
4. Why a Social Security Number (SSN) is classified as 'sensitive data' within systems
like the Position and Personnel Database (PPDB). What are the potential risks of
mishandling such data, and how do privacy laws mandate its protection?
5. Explain the conditions under which an Internet Service Provider (ISP) is not held
liable for user-uploaded copyright material
