Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 & National Investigation Agency Act,2008

The present work, “Explaining Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 and National Investigation Agency”, authored by Dr. K.K. Khandelwal, IAS (Retd.), comes at a time when the interface between liberty and security continues to invite deep reflection. Dr. Khandelwal’s erudition and administrative experience lend to this book a rare balance of scholarship and pragmatism. His exposition of the statutory provisions, particularly the definitional breadth of Section 2, the adjudicatory structure under Section 5, and the procedural innovations under Section 43D brings clarity to a complex field. The discussion on the National Investigation Agency Act, 2008, and its synergistic operation with the UAPA, further enhances the value of this volume as a guide for practitioners, academicians, and administrators alike.
