Gauhati High Court Quashes NSA Detention of Activist Pranab Doley in Assam
The Gauhati High Court quashed the National Security Act detention of activist Pranab Doley in Assam, who was arrested in July after protesting a luxury hotel project near Kaziranga National Park. Despite a sessions court granting bail, the Assam government invoked the NSA, alleging violations of the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act. Doley's detention lasted 117 days amid indigenous community opposition to the hotel project, citing environmental and land rights concerns.
