<h1>44th Amendment Act, 1978: Preventive Detention Over Two Months Requires Advisory Board Approval; Jurisdiction Clarified for Detention Orders.</h1> Article 22 of the Constitution was amended by the 44th Amendment Act, 1978. The amendment replaced clause (4) to stipulate that preventive detention cannot exceed two months unless an Advisory Board, formed based on the Chief Justice's recommendations, justifies the detention. The Board must include a High Court Judge as Chairman and at least two other members. The amendment clarifies the jurisdiction of the 'appropriate High Court' based on the authority issuing the detention order. Additionally, clause (7) was modified by omitting sub-clause (a) and relettering the remaining sub-clauses.
