Can Parliament make a provision regarding preventive detention before the expiration of one year from the commencement of the Constitution?
Yes, Parliament can make a provision regarding preventive detention before the expiration of one year from the commencement of the Constitution. This is because the power to do so is given to the President until such time as Parliament makes its own provisions under clause (7) of Article 22 or until the expiration of one year from the commencement of the Constitution, whichever is earlier.
