Uproar again in J&K assembly over detention of AAP MLA under PSA

The incarceration of MLA Doda Mehraj Malik under Public Safety Act (PSA) rocked the Jammu and Kashmir assembly again on Monday with some members demanding formation of a committee to inquire whether the invocation of PSA by district magistrate on Malik was justified.

National Conference MLA from Banihal, Sajjad Shaheen, raised the issue of PSA on Mehraj Malik in the zero hour which was objected to by the Bharatiya Janata Party.

Shaheen sought a one hour discussion on the issue. “MLA Doda Mehraj Malik is undergoing jail illegally and unconstitutionally under PSA. I want a debate in the house because today it is Mehraj Malik and tomorrow it will be any other MLA,” he said.
