https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=168796 Preventive detention under the Preventive Detention Act, 1950 was analysed against Articles 19(1)(d), 21 and 22 of the Constitution. Article 19 was treated as protecting specified civil liberties rather than barring lawful detention, and Article 21 as requiring procedure established by law rather than a general due process guarantee. Article 22 was regarded as the special constitutional code for preventive detention, including safeguards on duration, disclosure of grounds and representation, so the Act was sustained in substance despite differing views on section 12. Section 14 was found ultra vires to the extent it barred disclosure of the grounds to court and impaired the right to make an effective representation. en-us Fri, 19 May 1950 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 17:59:42 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=168796 Preventive detention under the Preventive Detention Act, 1950 was analysed against Articles 19(1)(d), 21 and 22 of the Constitution.
