Srinagar, Sep 8 : Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday opposed the detention of Doda MLA Mehraj Malik under the Public Safety Act (PSA), saying the law was being misused.
In a post on X, Omar wrote, “There is no justification for detaining Mehraj Malik under PSA. He’s not a threat to ‘public safety’ and using this discredited law to detain him is wrong.
“If the unelected government can use its powers against an elected representative like this, then how does anyone expect the people of J&K to continue to have faith in democracy,” CM Omar said.
Earlier, Mehraj Malik was taken into custody under the PSA on charges of activities deemed prejudicial to the maintenance of public order.
