Can Delhi police use facial recognition cameras under Delhi law?

Use of facial recognition cameras by Delhi police is subject to the Delhi Rent Control Act 1958 and the privacy principles established by the Supreme Court. The Delhi High Court has noted that mass surveillance using facial recognition requires safeguards against arbitrary use in Delhi. The Delhi Rent Control Act 1958 may require transparency about deployment and purpose limitation for facial recognition in Delhi. The Delhi High Court has emphasized that data collected through facial recognition in Delhi must be deleted within a reasonable period. Citizens can seek information about facial recognition deployments through RTI in Delhi. The Delhi Rent Control Act 1958 provides for audit and oversight of surveillance technology used by Delhi police. Misuse of facial recognition data can be challenged before the Delhi High Court.
