Bobde and comprising Justices A.S. Bopanna and V.Ramasubramanian told WhatsApp counsel: "People have grave apprehensions about loss of privacy. You may be 2 or 3 trillion-dollar company, but people value their privacy more than your money, we have to protect people's privacy." The top court issued notice to WhatsApp and Facebook on this plea against its new privacy policy.Senior advocates Kapil Sibal and Arvind Datar, appearing for WhatsApp, strongly contested Divan's argument, saying that the high court is already seized of the matter.Sibal said Europe has a different set of laws, and WhatsApp new privacy policy for India is similar to policy applicable in the US, Australia and other countries.Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Centre, said the right to privacy is a fundamental right and they cannot compromised with the privacy of people.Divan cited that WhatsApp has already delayed the implementation of its new privacy policy till May this year.After a detailed hearing in the matter, the top court issued notices to WhatsApp, Facebook and Centre in the matter and fixed for further hearing after four weeks.IANS New Delhi For Latest Updates Please-
