| XXXXX | Title:– Preventive Detention and Individual Liberty About the book:– SAHRDC’s submission to the National Commission for the Review of the Working of the Constitution (NCRWC) of India. Preventive detention runs counter to fundamental freedoms such as the right to personal liberty. SAHRDC submission to the National Commission for the Review of the Working of the Constitution recommends the removal of Constitutional provisions allowing preventive detention in keeping with the spirit of the Constitution and international human rights standards. In the event that the provisions are retained, it must be ensured that they are enacted solely as emergency legislation and that additional safeguards are introduced to protect the rights of detainees.
