Preventive detention can't be misused for law & order issue: Supreme Court

IndiaTimes Friday, 22 March 2024
Terming preventive detention a draconian provision, Supreme Court has held that govt’s inability to to tackle the law and order situation should not be an excuse to invoke it and any capricious or routine exercise of it must be nipped in the bud. A bench of Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra said preventive detention can be ordered only in case of public disorder and not for law and order problems.
