Security concerns raised by organizations :
Multiple NGOs have raised security concerns and question's over the application. The Internet Freedom Foundation said that the country lacked a proper
data protection law and the application would be useless
for the low-income and non-smartphone users.
Founder of food-delivery firm Zomato Deepinder Goyal said that "being on the frontline exposes our delivery partners to catching the infection, and therefore, any customers that they get in touch with for those few handover seconds. "By mandating all its delivery staff to use Aarogya Setu, the idea is to keep individuals as well as authorities informed in case they have crossed paths with someone who has tested positive for coronavirus to prevent further spread," he said in a statement.
