STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The Preventive Detention Act , 1950 , is due to expire on the 31st December , 1966. The primary reason for the enactment of this legislation was to provide for detention with a view to preventing persons from acting in a manner prejudicial to the Defence of India , the relations of India with foreign powers , the security of India or a State , the maintenance of public order or the maintenance of supplies and services essential to the community . Experience in the working of the Act has shown that this legislation has proved to be an effective instrument specially in the maintenance of law and order. In these circumstances , it is considered essential that the powers conferred by the Preventive Detention Act , 1950 , should be continued. It is accordingly proposed to extend the duration of the Act for a further period of three years .
