Two Detained Under PSA in Jammu and Doda Districts

Two Detained Under PSA in Jammu and Doda Districts

Two people were arrested in Jammu and Kashmir under a special law called the Public Safety Act (PSA).

This law allows the government to detain people if they are seen as a threat to public safety.

One person, named Mohd Tahir, had a history of breaking the law and was arrested in Jammu.

The other person, Hafizullah, was arrested in Doda because of an action that upset people and caused a public disturbance.

The authorities decided to use PSA because regular methods like arrests didn't stop them from causing problems.

Both are now in jail.
