Justice K. S. Puttaswamy filed the Writ Petition that led to the verdict on the Right to Privacy.

The landmark judgment of the Supreme Court of India which unanimously declared the Right to Privacy as a fundamental right under Article 21 of the Constitution was delivered in the case of *Justice K. S. Puttaswamy (Retd.) and Anr. vs. Union of India and Ors.*

The case originated from a challenge to the Aadhaar scheme primarily on the grounds of privacy. The nine-judge bench unanimously held that the Right to Privacy is protected as an intrinsic part of the right to life and personal liberty under Article 21 and as a part of the freedoms guaranteed by Part III of the Constitution.
