Most likely you are correct. I suspect most citizens of India put “right to privacy” far, far below many other issues. So many are still affected daily by clean water and electricity shortages, lack of economic opportunities, and inconsistent (corrupt) governance.

Europe is afforded the luxury to spend energy on issues like this that are well higher on Maslow’s hierarchy.

However, due to prevailing issues between religions and castes in India, perhaps some would be interested in a blanket “right-to-privacy” in order to better hide their affiliations. This doesn’t seem to be the direction they’re heading but it’s a small fulcrum for change perhaps.
