Correct Answer: three months


Solution : The correct answer is three months .

The Indian Constitution's Article 22 guarantees freedom from arrest and detention. It states that unless an advisory board finds enough justifiable grounds to extend custody, individuals under preventative detention laws may not be held for more than three months. Both citizens and foreigners (non-citizens) are entitled to this privilege.
